Five-Year Report

Page 2: Rosenberg 2011 Report

For 75 years, the Rosenberg Foundation has had the privilege of championing the groundbreaking work of social and economic justice leaders making an impact across California. As the first staffed foundation west of the Missis­sippi, the Foundation’s early leaders established the institution as a risk­taker, supporting promising and

trailblaz ing work. Having been passed the responsibility and honor of continuing that pioneering tradition, the Foundation under its current leadership strives to stay close to burgeoning movements and issues.

We work diligently to identify the organizations and leaders engaged in innova­tive, grassroots civil rights advocacy, supporting them in a robust and persistent manner. The Foundation is more than just a funding source—we aim to be true partners with our grantees in the work to change the odds for all Californians. Whether organizing convenings, facilitating collaboration among groups or helping our partners leverage ad ditional resources, we are strong advocates for our grantees and the individuals, families, and communities they serve.

The wide range of work the Foundation has supported over the past five years is a reflection of our continued commitment to helping build a strong, diverse, and dynamic progressive movement. We expanded support for vital efforts in im­migrant rights, justice for farm workers, and accountable community development. We also embarked upon a new priority area, taking on the urgent need to reform California’s approach to criminal justice and public safety. We also have made a special investment in supporting the new, fresh voices heading social justice groups in California today.

Despite the challenging economic climate, the Foundation has chosen to support the work of our grant partners at a level that exceeds the required five percent minimum. We also are very proud to report that every grant awarded over the past five years has funded advocacy and organizing—efforts designed to address the root cause of some of the most challenging problems we face as a society.

Seventy­five years after Max Rosenberg’s bequest and the creation of the Founda­tion, we continue to support those at the forefront of the work to achieve policy reform that improves opportunities for all Califor nians. We look forward to continuing the legacy set forth by our past president Ruth Chance many years ago—to advocate for the disenfranchised by providing strategic leadership to those on the front lines of the social justice movement.

Sincerely,

PAST PRESIDENT (2005–2008)

An ALLIANCE in Defense of Civil Rights

For more than two decades, CCRC has worked to increase the effectiveness of California’s civil rights community by creating a durable, statewide progressive alliance of activists dedicated to preserv­ing and expanding equal opportunity in the state.

Historically, the work of CCRC relied heavily on technical support and staff assistance from member organizations, but CCRC leaders and the Rosenberg Foundation saw the potential for CCRC to become a fully independent orga­nization. The Rosenberg Foundation and the Ford Founda­tion partnered with CCRC and Equal Justice Society, providing capacity­building support to assist CCRC’s efforts to grow into a robust initiative capable of proac­tively moving vital progressive policies in California.

Under the leadership of CCRC’s co­chairs, its membership has grown to include more than 50 active organizations throughout California. These leaders work in partnership to leverage their diverse strengths across policy advocacy, com­munications, education, organizing, and litigation to defend minority and civil rights on a range of issues, from equal access to higher education to

tax policy reform to ensuring safe neighborhoods. Recent efforts include an education campaign emphasizing the importance of health care for immigrant communities, and fighting college admissions policies at University of California and California State University campuses that negatively impact students of color.

The California Civil Rights Coalition (calcivilrights.org)

was created based on the understanding that defending civil and human rights takes more than just hard work and commitment to principle – it takes an army.

Among a dynamic group of accountable community development advocates supported by the Rosenberg Foundation is the Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy (coastalalliance.com). CAUSE is grounded in the belief that building the infrastructure within — and the cooperation between — social justice groups leads to stronger, healthier, and more sustainable communities. To that end, CAUSE works with labor, faith, community, and environmental leaders across 260 organizations to achieve social, economic, and environmental

justice in California’s Central Coast region. CAUSE conducts policy research, leadership development, and community organizing designed to build the grassroots power of its partners in the region. The Rosenberg Foundation responded to CAUSE’s groundbreaking potential early on, providing a seed grant of $25,000 in 2000. Since then, the Foundation has provided $440,000 to help CAUSE expand its scale and impact across the state.

Today, this regional organization is attracting national attention and funding. CAUSE has proven to be extremely effective; its policy campaigns have led to the adoption of five municipal living wage ordinances in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties, the first­ever health benefits for in­home support workers, and two successful health­care initiatives targeting

uninsured children and farm workers. In total, the organization’s efforts have brought about improved wages and health benefits for more than 6,000 working families across the Central Coast.

Funding IMPACT LITIGATION

These efforts are undertaken on behalf of a range of communities by a number of groups, including the Legal Aid Society­Employment Law Center (las-elc.org), Equal Rights Advocates (equalrights.org), Asian Pacific American

Legal Center (apalc.org) and the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educa­tion Fund (maldef.org).

Over the past five years, Rosenberg renewed its ongoing support (since 1979) for litigation efforts led by the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area (lccr.com). In 2007, working with the ACLU of Northern California and others, the Lawyers’ Committee intervened on behalf of parents of students enrolled in Berkeley Unified School District against a lawsuit that sought to hamper the district’s efforts to ensure diversity within its schools and classrooms. The Alameda County Superior Court found that the district does not violate state law when it considers race as one of many factors in assigning students to schools, and the state Court of Appeals upheld the ruling in 2009. In 2008, the Lawyers’ Committee won a $2.25 million settlement, including permanent injunctive relief and damages for injured class members against the

City of Fresno on behalf of homeless individuals whose personal pos­sessions were being confiscated and destroyed. In 2010, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a ruling allowing Latino residents to sue Stanislaus County for discrimination under the Federal Housing Act for failing to provide adequate municipal services to predominantly Latino neighborhoods.

In 2001, the Rosenberg Founda­tion made its first grant in

support of the largest civil rights class action lawsuit in U.S. history. Led by Equal Rights Advocates and the Impact Fund (impactfund.org), Dukes v. Wal-Mart

seeks to redress and combat sex­based employment discrimination by one of the nation’s largest employers. The plaintiffs in the case allege a long pattern of sex discrimination in pay and promotions, and retaliation against those women who complained. To date, the action has pro­gressed successfully through the federal district and appellate courts and is now headed to the U.S. Supreme Court. In 2009 and 2010, the Rosenberg Foundation piloted the use of Program Related Investments to support major litigation by approving PRIs to Equal Rights Advocates and the Impact Fund.

The Rosenberg Foundation believes that impact litigation remains an essential advocacy tool and is proud to support cutting­edge litigation efforts.

Catalyzing Solutions in CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM

The Rosenberg Foundation is committed to ensuring that every person in California has fair and equitable opportunities to participate fully in the state’s economic, social, and civic life. Nowhere are the barriers to equal opportunity more visible than in California’s fractured criminal justice system, which creates and perpetuates an ongoing cycle of crime and discrimination that undermines entire communities, especially in the most impoverished neighborhoods and regions of the state. Criminal justice reform has become one of the most urgent civil rights issues of our day.

The Rosenberg Foundation is resourcing new solutions to strengthening human rights in California with a special focus on issues related to criminal justice and prison reform. To further this goal, the Rosenberg Foundation uses a mix of grantmaking, communications, and direct activities aimed at creating alternatives to incarceration, reducing recidivism, improving public safety, and providing employment opportunities and support to the formerly incarcerated.

Over the past five years, the Foundation has awarded more than $2.1 million in grants to a diverse group of organizations working on criminal justice reform, including the Family Violence Prevention Fund (endabuse.org), Women’s Founda­tion of California (womensfoundca.org), Urban Strategies Council (urbanstrategies.

org), NAACP (naacp.org), Legal Services for Prisoners with Children/All of Us or None (prisonerswithchildren.org), National Employment Law Project (nelp.org) and the East Bay Community Law Center (ebclc.org). This support has funded a broad

range of programs such as initiatives aimed at increasing employ­ment opportunities and combating discrimination against the formerly incarcerated, preventing childhood exposure to violence, addressing racial disparities within the criminal justice system, and reducing the number of women prisoners in California.

True to its underlying principle of augmenting financial support with network building and technical assistance, the Foundation has helped to organize a series of convenings that bring together criminal justice funders with U.S. Department of Justice officials, probation officers, judges, local law enforcement officers, and top national experts on public safety and criminal justice reform.

Notably, the Rosenberg Foundation hosted the first meeting of the Council of State Governments Justice Center (justicecenter.csg.org)

with the chiefs of police from four California jurisdictions to develop a data­driven reentry and justice reinvestment project. The Foundation also helped organize a convening among more than 80 criminal justice funders nationwide and the U.S. Department of Justice to identify top priorities for public/private partnerships.

Farm workers are the backbone of California’s agricultural economy. They also remain one of the most vulnerable and underrepresented populations in the state.Supporting the region’s farm workers has been a cornerstone of the Rosenberg Foundation’s efforts since the 1950s. Today, that legacy is continued through the work of a number of the Rosenberg Foundation’s grant partners including Farmworker Justice (fwjustice.org).

For the past 28 years, Farmworker Justice has worked to improve the wages, working conditions, and rights of migrant and seasonal workers through policy advocacy, public education, technical assis­tance, and litigation. The organiza­tion’s efforts have led to a higher standard of living for farm workers and immigrants across the state, and a heightened level of media attention nationwide. The Rosen­berg Foundation has provided continued and unwavering sup­port to Farmworker Just ice, awarding more than $2.6 million in

funding since its inception.

Over the past five years, Farmworker Justice has won key victories on behalf of immigrant rights, includ­ing achieving improve­ments in both wages and

working conditions for agricultural workers, garnering employer support for key immigration legislation, and generating favorable media coverage for immigration reform efforts.

Farmworker Justice is also part of a new coalition that includes Oxfam America (oxfamamerica.org), the United Farm Workers (ufw.org), and a number of other stake­holders. In 2010, the Rosenberg Foundation provided the inaugural grant for this initiative, called “Fairness in the Fields.” The initiative aims to establish, enforce, publicize, and monitor a comprehensive set of labor standards for farm work in the U.S., and to enable retail consumers to choose to buy food that has been grown and produced in compliance with domestic fair labor standards. Already, this exciting early effort has attracted keen attention from advocates, organizers, and retailers.

Immigration is one of the most pressing issues of our time, and the future of California relies in part on building strong, empowered, and fully engaged immigrant communities.

To this end, the Rosenberg Foundation con­tinues to make a strategic and concerted commitment to bolster immigrant rights and integration. Specifically, the Foundation promotes change in public policy and private practices through a multi­pronged strategy that includes supporting grassroots advocacy, uplifting emerging leaders in underserved communities, enforcing voting and language rights, and strengthening the communications capacity of immigrant rights advocates. In the past five years, the Foundation has invested more than $2.4 million in a strategic group of organizations doing some of the most effective work in this area.

For example, since 2006, the Foundation has given $360,000 to help Clergy and Laity United for Economic Justice – California (clueca.org) engage a broad spectrum of faith leaders statewide to support immigration reform and immigrant integration. CLUE­CA reaches hundreds of faith leaders from immigrant and mainstream congregations around the state, and builds alliances across racial and ethnic lines to advance campaigns for immigrant rights and reform. Its crucial efforts include a campaign to support and empower workers who are fighting for more humane working conditions, decent wages, and access to health care.

The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles (chirla.org) was founded in 1986 in response to the Immigration Reform and Control Act, which provided amnesty to 2.7 million undocumented immigrants but also imposed sanctions on employers who knowingly hire undocumented workers. Today, CHIRLA is a leader in both state and national immigrant rights advocacy efforts. CHIRLA uses coalition­building, advocacy, community education, and organizing to empower immigrants, and a wide range of multi­ethnic, multi­racial allies to build a more just society. The Rosenberg Foundation has provided nearly $600,000 in support to CHIRLA since 1994.

Day laborers are the most visible face of the undocumented in this country and therefore bear the brunt of discrimination. The National Day Laborer Organizing Network (ndlon.org) works to create safe and humane environments that allow day laborers to earn a living, contribute to society, and integrate into communi­ties. NDLON was launched in 2001 as a collaborative effort of 12 organizations and worker centers dedicated to improving the lives of day laborers in the U.S. Since its initial support in 2003, the Rosenberg Foundation has awarded NDLON more than $500,000, with more than $250,000 provided since 2006.

Promoting the full economic, social and civic integration of immigrants has long been one of the touchstones of the Rosenberg Foundation’s commitment to human rights.

Advocating for Immigrant RIGHTS + INTEGRATION

Building a strong progressive infrastructure takes more than investing in organizations; it takes an investment in leadership. The funding priorities of the Rosenberg Foundation reflect this commitment. The Foundation is proud to support a new generation of grantees whose executive directors are spearheading some of the most cutting­edge civil rights work in California and across the country. These leaders have the drive, passion, and

foresight necessary to defend and advance human rights into the next decade and beyond. A few of these leaders are highlighted here.

Lateefah Simon has been a tireless advocate for communities of color, youth, and women since she was 15 years old, when she joined the Center for Young Women’s Development as a volunteer. Four years later, Simon was named executive director, becoming one of the youngest leaders of a social service agency in the country. Now, as executive director of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area (lccr.com), Simon leads the charge to promote equal access and opportunity for at­risk communities through policy work, direct service, and impact litigation. Since joining LCCR in 2008, Simon has revitalized the organization, se­curing new funding, significantly expanding the organization’s direct services programs, and launching new efforts to help formerly incarcer­ated men and women permanently exit the criminal justice system. The Rosenberg Foundation began funding LCCR in 1979 and has since pro­vided the organization with nearly $1.9 million in financial support.

Mina Titi Liu has a strong reputation for advancing social justice issues both domestically and internationally. She has served as the Law and Rights Program

Officer for the Ford Foundation and as a consultant to the U.S. State Department and USAID, and has published extensively in the U.S. and China on the relation­ship between litigation and social change. As executive director of the Asian Law Caucus (asianlawcaucus.org) in San Francisco, Liu now leads the fight to promote, advance, and represent the legal and civil rights of Asian and Pacific Islander communities with a special focus on the needs of low­income, immigrant, and underserved people. The Rosenberg Foundation has provided the Asian Law Caucus with $860,000 in support since 1987.

Abdi Soltani has built a diverse and dynamic career advocating for social change. He has served as executive director at Californians for Justice, the Campaign for College Opportunity, and, most recently, at PARSA, the first Persian community foundation in the U.S. and the leading Persian philan­thropic institution practicing strategic philanthropy and promoting social entrepreneurship around the globe. As a leader in the “No on 54” campaign in 2003, Soltani helped defeat a proposi­tion aimed at significantly weakening racial equality by barring state and local government agencies from collecting vital data on Californians’ race, ethnic­ity, or national origin. He now brings his community building and civil rights muscle to the ACLU, where he leads

a team of legal advocates working to preserve and expand basic freedoms in California and nationwide. The Rosenberg Foundation has provided the ACLU of Northern California (aclunc.org) with $530,000 in support since 1993.

As a young attorney, Arcelia Hurtado devoted her career to providing legal represen­tation to those who otherwise would not have access to it. Her work with numerous community­based organizations including La Raza Centro Legal has helped secure individual civil and human rights in the fields of employment, housing, and immigra­tion. As an appellate lawyer, she has represented people on death row. Now as execu­tive director of Equal Rights Advocates (equalrights.org), Hurtado brings her deep knowledge of the law and her passion for civil rights to bear on advancing equal op­portunity for women and girls through impact litigation and advocacy. Since it began funding Equal Rights Advocates in 1998, the Rosenberg Foundation has provided the organization with nearly $1 million in financial support.

Vincent Pan is a leading progressive voice on issues of racial justice and social change. Prior to joining Chinese for Affirmative Action, Pan worked with the William J. Clinton Foundation in Beijing to start and expand HIV/AIDS treatment and care programs in China. Before that, Pan co­founded and served as executive director of Heads Up, a community­based organization that runs education and enrichment programs for low­income children in Washington, D.C. Pan now leads Chinese for Affirmative Action (caasf.org), where he spearheads ad­vocacy on a range of pressing social justice issues including language access, immigrant rights, affirmative action, educational equity, and marriage equality. The Rosenberg Foundation has provided Chinese for Affirmative Action with $480,000 in financial support since 2001.
