INFORMED BY READER TIPS AND COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS, OUR REPORTING INCLUDES INVESTIGATIVE WORK THAT REQUIRES LONG-TERM RESEARCH AND DATA DISAGGREGATION - INCLUDING OUR WAGE THEFT MONITOR, A DATABASE MAPPING OVER A DECADE OF WAGE THEFT DATA FROM THE U.S. AND NYS DEPARTMENTS OF LABOR. WE ALSO DISTRIBUTE THE EARLY ARRIVAL NEWSLETTER, ENSURING KEY CONCERNS AND AUTHENTIC IMMIGRANT STORIES REACH POLICYMAKERS, ADVOCATES, AND THE BROADER PUBLIC.

WE PRODUCE ORIGINAL ACCOUNTABILITY REPORTING, SERVICE JOURNALISM, AND ACTIONABLE RESOURCE GUIDES - INCLUDING HOW-TOS, EXPLAINERS, AND COMMUNITY PROFILES - TAILORED TO THE NEEDS AND INTERESTS OF SPANISH-SPEAKING IMMIGRANTS IN NEW YORK CITY. CHINESE: OUR CHINESE-LANGUAGE PROGRAM SERVES CHINESE-SPEAKING IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES THROUGH WECHAT, IN-PERSON EVENTS AND OTHER PLATFORMS WHERE THESE COMMUNITIES SPEND TIME.

CARIBBEAN: OUR CARIBBEAN PROGRAM SERVES NON-SPANISH-SPEAKING CARIBBEAN COMMUNITIES, INCLUDING HAITIAN CREOLE SPEAKERS, THROUGH NEXTDOOR AND OTHER COMMUNITY PLATFORMS. WE PRODUCE MULTILINGUAL REPORTING, IN-PERSON EVENTS AND INFORMATION PRODUCTS INFORMED BY DIRECT COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, COVERING ISSUES FROM HOUSING TO SOCIAL SERVICES, WITH A FOCUS ON BOTH ACCOUNTABILITY AND COMMUNITY IDENTITY. NATIONAL: OUR NATIONAL PROGRAM EXTENDS DOCUMENTED'S IMPACT BEYOND NEW YORK CITY BY BUILDING THE CAPACITY OF OTHER NEWSROOMS TO BETTER SERVE IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES. THROUGH OUR BUILDING BRIDGES PROGRAM, WE TRAIN AND SUPPORT NEWSROOMS ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO CREATE INFORMATION PRODUCTS AND ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIES TAILORED TO IMMIGRANT AUDIENCES - DRAWING ON BEST PRACTICES DEVELOPED THROUGH YEARS OF COMMUNITY-DRIVEN REPORTING. WE ALSO CONVENE AND SUPPORT A COALITION OF IMMIGRANT-SERVING NEWSROOMS TO STRENGTHEN COLLABORATIVE JOURNALISM, SHARE RESOURCES, AND AMPLIFY THE COLLECTIVE IMPACT OF LOCAL OUTLETS WORKING AT THE INTERSECTION OF IMMIGRATION AND COMMUNITY INFORMATION NEEDS.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

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.
Grants made
No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

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.
