Statistics show that by the end of today, 175 children in the state of Texas will suffer from abuse and neglect.

We feel it is our obligation to prevent and educate community members and organizations on child abuse and neglect. We want the Concho Valley to be a safer place for children and families, and this can only happen when everyone is aware and educated on what steps they can take to protect children.

We offer several free trainings to educate, empower, and equip individuals to stand up against child abuse through our Sparks of Hope program. Be a voice and a spark of hope for victims of child abuse by learning how to recognize and report child abuse.

Protective Factors Framework Training is a positive training on working with families and coworkers form a strength-based perceptive.

Recognizing and Reporting Child Abuse Training is a free, video-based training led by a trained facilitator for any school, group, business, or individual. This training is statistically proven to make ten children safer for every adult trained by providing the tools to recognize signs of child abuse, learn proper reporting protocol, and gain access to available community resource. This vital training can not only help save a child's life but is a great tool to have for anyone in the human services, education, or medical fields, as well as businesses that regularly interact with individuals.

About This Data

Nonprofit Explorer includes summary data for nonprofit tax returns and full Form 990 documents, in both PDF and digital formats.

The summary data contains information processed by the IRS during the 2012-2019 calendar years; this generally consists of filings for the 2011-2018 fiscal years, but may include older records. This data release includes only a subset of what can be found in the full Form 990s.

In addition to the raw summary data, we link to PDFs and digital copies of full Form 990 documents wherever possible. This consists of separate releases by the IRS of Form 990 documents processed by the agency, which we update regularly.

We also link to copies of audits nonprofit organizations that spent $750,000 or more in Federal grant money in a single fiscal year since 2016. These audits are copied from the Federal Audit Clearinghouse.

Which Organizations Are Here?

Every organization that has been recognized as tax exempt by the IRS has to file Form 990 every year, unless they make less than $200,000 in revenue and have less than $500,000 in assets, in which case they have to file form 990-EZ. Organizations making less than $50,000 don't have to file either form but do have to let the IRS they're still in business via a Form 990N "e-Postcard."

Nonprofit Explorer has organizations claiming tax exemption in each of the 27 subsections of the 501(c) section of the tax code, and which have filed a Form 990, Form 990EZ or Form 990PF. Taxable trusts and private foundations that are required to file a form 990PF are also included. Small organizations filing a Form 990N "e-Postcard" are not included in this data.

The community involvement analysis assignment was an eye opener for me as a future child advocate because I saw first hand in the meeting that I attended. Some of these school districts and counselors don't always have the children or parents in mind, and this meeting showed first hand who they truly care about.
