Mission and programs · 2025

• DURING THE ORGANIZATION'S TWO-YEAR PILOT PHASE (2014-2015), THE ORGANIZATION HAS IDENTIFIED THREE COMMUNITIES THAT INTEND TO SERVE AS PILOT SETTINGS FOR THE TESTING AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE COMMUNITIES OF EXCELLENCE FRAMEWORK. DURING THIS PILOT PHASE, THE ORGANIZATION HAS ENGAGED IN CROSS-SECTOR COLLABORATION WITHIN THE PILOT COMMUNITIES TO IMPLEMENT THE FRAMEWORK WHICH WAS ADAPTED FROM THE BALDRIGE CRITERIA FOR PERFORMANCE EXCELLENCE. THIS PROCESS HAS INVOLVED MEETINGS WITH VARIOUS LOCAL OFFICIALS AND LEADERS FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING TRAINING, MENTORING, SKILL-BUILDING, RESEARCH, KNOWLEDGE OF BEST PRACTICES, AND FINANCIAL AND COACHING RESOURCES IN ASSISTING THE COMMUNITIES IN ESTABLISHING COMMUNITY CRITERIA FOR QUALITY, GOALS, MEASURING PROGRESS AND CRITERIA FOR SUSTAINABILITY. THE ORGANIZATION HAS ENGAGED THE SERVICES OF A CONSULTANT FOR PURPOSES OF COORDINATING AND IMPLEMENTING THESE ACTIONS. EXPENSES INCURRED HAVE BEEN PRIMARILY FOR COMPENSATION OF THE CONSULTANT AND RELATED TRAVEL AND TRAINING EXPENSES. IN 2017 AND 2018 INITIAL CONFERENCES OF PARTICIPATING COMMUNITIES WERE HELD FOR THE PURPOSE OF FURTHERING THE ABOVE-MENTIONED OBJECTIVES.

  Expenses $238,702 · Revenue $345,359

As filed on the 2025 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2025

As listed in Part VII of the 2025 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

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.
