Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Children At Risk (C@R) is a statewide nonprofit organization whose mission is to serve as a catalyst for change to improve the quality of life for children through strategic research, public policy analysis, education, collaboration, and advocacy.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Children At Risk serves as a catalyst for change to improve the quality of life for children.

  • Since its inception, C@R has placed high value on ensuring equitable access to early and K-12 education. To drive change in this area, C@R works closely with stakeholders to discuss reform strategies and advance policies to improve the quality of and access to education. C@R highlighted key issues, including pandemic learning loss during COVID-19, tracked how ESSER dollars are spent on our children, and released our Annual School Rankings to highlight the quality of Texas Schools. C@R also highlighted research on child care deserts in Texas and worked to increase access to and improve the quality of the subsidized child care system, and to ensure equity for both children and the child care workforce.

    Expenses $3,041,121 · Grants $516,625 · Revenue $664,971

  • C@R established the Center to End the Trafficking and Exploitation of Children (CETEC) in 2007 to launch a broad educational and outreach program to combat human trafficking. C@R continued to grow the Cities Empowered Against Sexual Exploitation (CEASE) Texas project and convened nonprofits, state agencies, law enforcement, and local governments in a statewide Anti-Demand Coalition to share knowledge, best practices, and lessons learned. C@R also conducted critical research on opportunity youth (youth ages 16-24 who are neither in school nor in the workforce), highlighting policies that can put these young people on a path to success and prevent exploitation.

    Expenses $80,672

  • C@R established the Center for Parenting and Family Well-Being (CPFWB) in 2011. In its first phase, CPFWB conducted an inventory of the current network of parenting services in Houston and found a strong need for evidence-based, non-punitive parent education. Through a partnership including organizations that provide parent education services, pediatricians, academics, and public health practitioners, CPFWB determined that the community should move forward with developing a structure to implement the Positive Parenting Program (Triple P). During its second phase, the CPFWB is creating an infrastructure to disseminate Triple P across Harris County.

    Expenses $10,002

  • Through its unique Food in Schools Initiative, C@R continues to raise awareness and advocate for the implementation of Universal School Breakfast (UFSB) and other school meal programs in schools with high poverty levels. Our annual School Food rankings highlight top-performing districts with school food programs and highlight innovations and best practices adopted by top districts. Through our Childhood Immunization Project, C@R also collaborated with key partners to help maintain current code that establishes immunization requirements for Texas elementary and secondary schools and ensure equitable access to childhood immunizations.

    Expenses $3,261

  • Other programs were juvenile justice and mental health related.

    Expenses $399,868

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
