Our community invested over $31 million last year to fight poverty in the Bay Area.

Annual Impact Report 2024

Dear friends,

Last year, our community rallied together to invest over $31 million into the Bay Area, helping put our neighbors on a path out of poverty. I am thrilled to share Tipping Point’s 2024 Impact Report below, including both the numbers and the stories behind our impact.

But what do we mean by “impact?” It is not just a list of people served, dollars invested, or even programs completed. When Tipping Point gives out funding, we aim to understand what is different because of that investment.

After two decades in the Bay Area, we have seen countless examples of how Tipping Point’s work is changing the lives of our neighbors. But in order to tell the full story of our impact on poverty in this region, we need a broader view. This means comparing our numbers to regional and state averages, and investing in research so that we have the data to show which interventions are getting the best results.

Thanks to Tipping Point’s increased investment in research and data, we can confidently say that our portfolio of grantees is outperforming the status quo. We know what works. Not only are we investing in organizations that are getting results, but we are leveraging those results to direct more government dollars towards effective interventions. Last year, Tipping Point and our grantees advocated for over $280 million in additional funding for effective anti-poverty programs.

It goes without saying that there is more work to do. Tipping Point will continue to strengthen these organizations so that they can scale and serve more of our Bay Area neighbors. And we will continue to advocate for more funding, both private and public, for interventions that work.

 

Thanks for all you do,

Sam Cobbs
CEO, Tipping Point Community

Housing

A promising future starts with a stable place to call home.

97%

At BACS, we go beyond serving ‘the whole person’ and wrap around their family, friends, pets, and entire community. The BACS team works in both behavioral health and housing, fighting to bring these systems together. We provide short term housing with the goal of moving to permanent housing, and we own over 50 single-family homes, crisis psych ERs to take the burden off of hospitals, and street outreach teams. And we see it every day—it's successful.

A Holistic Approach to Homelessness in the East Bay

Tipping Point grantee Bay Area Community Services (BACS) is a regional leader in solving homelessness.

BACS provides life-changing housing and homelessness prevention services alongside critical behavioral healthcare to support individuals in finding stability. After 70 years of working in California, BACS has become a leader in tackling the homelessness crisis head-on, including building the regional homelessness prevention platform. In 2018, they played a leadership role in developing Keep Oakland Housed, a successful targeted homelessness prevention program in Oakland, and expanding it to Keep People Housed, which serves the broader Alameda and Contra Costa counties.

This year, BACS made impressive impact in the communities it serves—74% of BACS clients moved from interim housing to permanent housing, compared to just 44% in similar programs.

Education

A college degree opens doors to economic prosperity.

64%
college graduation rate

We invest in solutions that increase the number of low-income and first-generation Bay Area students who graduate from college.

Despite serving students with higher needs who face more barriers to graduation, our grantees have exceeded the statewide graduation rate of 56%.

93%of high school graduates

enrolled in college after working with our grantees, compared to a rate of 75% across the Bay Area.

91%of students

served by grantees stayed enrolled after their first year of college, compared to 74% of all college students in California.

1.8million low-income college students

will receive improved access to important math and reading courses statewide, thanks to grantee advocacy.

A Long-Term Commitment for College Success

Tipping Point grantee College Track supports first-generation and low-income students to earn their college degree.

Starting their program in ninth grade, College Track makes a 10-year commitment to each student, providing academic support and financial and college advising to help students earn a college degree and build the skills to succeed long term. Tipping Point’s partnership with College Track has been instrumental in helping the organization grow from a first cohort of 25 ninth graders in East Palo Alto to nearly 5,500 alumni, high school, and college scholars nationwide. Our consistent and customized support, including helping College Track build its IT infrastructure to plan for long-term growth, has helped maximize College Track’s ability to achieve their mission and expand their program.

Last year, 99% of College Track’s high school graduates nationwide enrolled in college.

It can take 4 minimum-wage jobs to make ends meet in the Bay Area. That’s why Tipping Point and our grantees are focused on building pathways to well-paying, career-oriented jobs in our region, so more workers can achieve quality employment with wages that can support them and their families.

Building Careers and Climate Resilience for the Bay Area

Tipping Point grantee Rising Sun Center for Opportunity supports Bay Area workers to access well-paying green jobs.

As government investments in solutions to climate change reach historic levels, demand for green jobs is growing quickly across sectors and industries. Rising Sun Center for Opportunity ensures Bay Area workers are well prepared to secure climate-related roles.

New to the portfolio, Oakland-based Rising Sun is building a climate-ready workforce in the Bay Area, ensuring low-income individuals—particularly women, people impacted by the justice system, and young people—can access well-paying jobs while increasing climate resilience for our entire community. Rising Sun’s programs include Opportunity Build, which prepares participants for career opportunities in construction trades, and Climate Careers, which offers young workers the opportunity to gain paid, hands-on work experience in green jobs.

Last year, the Opportunity Build program saw an 86% completion rate and a 71% job placement rate.

Early Childhood

The first few years of a child’s life lay the groundwork for their future success.

94%
of Black babies born full-term

We invest in solutions that support families, caregivers, and children (ages 0–3) to reach essential child developmental outcomes.

For grantees serving primarily Black clients, 94% were born full-term compared to 88% of Black babies born in the Bay Area.

89%of infants

were born at a target weight, putting them on track to meet healthy development milestones.

90%of babies

served by grantees are fully immunized by age one, compared to 61% of children from a similar socioeconomic background nationally.

Ensuring All Young Children Receive High-Quality Care

Tipping Point grantee Izzi Early Education provides excellent infant and toddler care, as well as parent support for a high-need, low-income population.

When Charlie Cervantes enrolled his two children at Izzi, he was hesitant to get involved. Through encouragement from his children’s teacher, he agreed to come read to their class. He loved seeing the kids’ faces light up at his animated storytelling, and he began volunteering more often. Eventually, Charlie completed college courses and training to become a full-time, accredited teacher at Izzi.

But Izzi’s program is not just about supporting the children—Izzi works to build relationships with the whole family. Inspired by his own family’s journey, Charlie started the “Father’s Café,” a support group for Izzi fathers to discuss parenting and ways to connect with their kids. It is this type of program that allows Izzi to improve parent teaching skills, which helps children learn even when they are not at school.

Last year, 93% of Izzi parents achieved expectations in parent teaching skills.

Scaling Our Impact Through Policy Change

We scale our grantees’ collective impact by changing the conditions that hold poverty in place. As part of our efforts to create systemic change, we support leading advocacy organizations and specific policy changes that remove barriers to economic mobility for people across the Bay Area.

Expanding Supports for College Students with Children

Our Work

Tipping Point grantees California Competes and EdTrust-West successfully advocated for legislation (AB 2458) that expands financial aid access for student parents in California. In addition, the legislation empowers colleges to collect better data around the needs and available resources for student parents on their campuses.

These critical measures will help improve educational outcomes, such as college completion and degree attainment, and the well-being of student parents and their families (including half a million children), setting the foundations for multigenerational prosperity.

Helping Community College Students Earn Their Degrees

Our Work

Tipping Point grantee EdTrust-West continued advocating for implementation of legislation (AB 705 and AB 1705) that accelerates Math and English academic progress for California community college students.

Many community college students face unnecessary remedial class requirements that prevent them from enrolling in credit-earning courses. Black and Latinx students are disproportionately burdened by these requirements, delaying them from meeting their academic goals and graduating.

Protecting Proven Pathways to Stable Employment

Our Work

Tipping Point grantee California EDGE Coalition successfully advocated to preserve $25 million in the state budget for the CA Youth Apprenticeship Program. This protects funding for apprenticeship programs that demonstrate positive employment and earnings outcomes for youth.

Apprenticeships have lifelong positive impacts, in addition to high employment rates upon program completion and higher starting salaries than individuals who enter the workforce without a college degree. The state of California has a stated goal of reaching 500,000 registered apprenticeships by 2029.

Caring for the Emotional Needs of Young Children

Our Work

Tipping Point grantee First 5 Association of California successfully advocated for $56 million in funding under the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative to increase access to culturally responsive home-visiting services, improve coordination of services for families, strengthen child-caregiver relationships, and reduce health disparities.

Early childhood mental health services provide training and support to caregivers to promote healthy social and emotional development in children, preventing long-term negative mental health impacts. Culturally responsive practices focus on reducing disparities for Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC), and the LGBTQIA+ community.
