Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Advocates on behalf of abused and neglected Children. Mobilizing our community to break the vicious cycle of child abuse and neglect and provide outstanding advocacy for abused and neglected children who are in the juvenile court system.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Advocates on behalf of abused and neglected children.

  • ProKids exists because of the over 3,500 children annually who are under the juvenile court's jurisdiction due to abuse and neglect, most who have been removed from their homes and placed into the foster care system. Founded in 1981 through the collaborative efforts of the Cincinnati Bar Association, the Hamilton County Juvenile Court, and the Junior League of Cincinnati, ProKids is the only nonprofit to provide best interest advocacy on behalf of these children. Children's safety and wellbeing is central to ProKids. Our efforts focus on connecting critical community support to the children who need it most through 2 primary means:Working Collaboratively ProKids creates alliances with partners in the local child protection system including Hamilton County Jobs and Family Services (HCJFS), Hamilton County Juvenile Court, and the Public Defender's Guardian ad Litem division. Recruiting, Training, and Advocating The largest component of ProKids' work is recruiting, training, and supporting community volunteers to speak up for children who have been abused and neglected. These individuals, known as Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) Volunteers, are the heart of ProKids' service model and work closely with a ProKids CASA Manager and Staff Attorney as part of a highly trained Advocacy Team for each case. Over the past decade, ProKids has doubled the number of children served and improved outcomes. In 2024, ProKids directly nearly 1,000 children (roughly 1/3 of court-involved children in Hamilton County) with the support of over 300 CASA Volunteers. 88% experienced stability while assigned to ProKids, 99% did not experience a recurrence of abuse or neglect, and 91% lived in a safe, permanent home when their case closed.

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.

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.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

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.
