I'm thinking of calling it the Youth Liberation Foundation as well. Not sure why by the acronymn YLF seems to amuse for its indirect heritage to some of the old latin american style marxist groups.

Emancipated Teen Parents
and the TANF Living Arrangement Rules
A Fact Sheet
What is emancipation?
Emancipation is a legal process in which a minor (a person under 18) petitions the court to have herself declared a legal adult. Emancipation laws vary from state to state, but generally emancipation ends the parents= legal duty to support the minor, and also ends the parents= right to make decisions about the minor=s residence, education, health care, and to control the minor=s conduct. However, it does not mean that the minor is the same as an adult for all purposes (for example, voting and alcohol-purchase age laws are not affected by emancipation). The extent to which an emancipated minor is treated as an adult varies from state to state, but emancipated minors generally can enter into binding contracts, sue and be sued, establish a residence, and consent to medical treatment on the same basis as adults.
What are the requirements for emancipation?
Minors who marry or join the armed forces generally qualify for emancipation. In addition, most states allow emancipation of minors upon proof that they are capable of living as adults. These laws vary from state to state, but they generally require that: (1) the minor is managing her own finances, has a legal source of income, and is not financially dependent on her parents; (2) the minor is living independently from her parents ; and (3) emancipation would be in the minor best interest.
Some states specifically exclude public benefits such as TANF from being considered as a source of income when a minor petitions for emancipation. A few states also allow emancipation to be revoked if a minor later becomes dependent on public benefits. How the TANF rules apply to emancipated minors is still an important question, however, because many states do not restrict emancipation to minors who are not on public assistance, and even in states that do, the need to apply for TANF could arise after a minor is emancipated (e.g., if she loses a job).
Some states also require the consent or acquiescence of the minor's parents. Also, some states require that the minor already be living independently at the time of the emancipation petition; others allow emancipation upon a showing that the minor has an acceptable plan to live independently in the future.
Most states= emancipation laws do not discuss how courts should handle cases where the minor has a child.
What are the teen parent living arrangement rules in the federal welfare law (the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act, or PRWORA)?
The federal welfare law passed in 1996 generally prohibits an unmarried minor who is a custodial parent from receiving Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) assistance for herself, unless she is living with a parent, legal guardian, or other adult relative (42 U.S.C. '608(a)(5)(A)). However, a minor can be exempted from this living arrangement rule if:
1) the minor has no parent, guardian, or adult relative who is living or whose whereabouts are known;
2) the minor has no parent, guardian, or adult relative who will allow her to live in their home;
3) the state agency determines that the minor or her child is being or has been subjected to serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse, or exploitation in the parent, guardian, or adult relative=s home;
4) the state agency determines that living with a parent, guardian, or adult relative presents a risk of imminent or serious harm to the minor or her child; or
5) the state agency determines that it is in the best interest of the minor=s child to waive the rule (42 U.S.C. '608(a)(5)(B)(ii)).
If a minor parent qualifies for one of these five exemptions, the state agency must provide, or assist her in locating, an alternative Aadult-supervised supportive living arrangement,@ unless the state agency determines that her current living arrangement is appropriate. (An adult-supervised supportive living arrangement is defined as one in which teen parents are required to learn parenting skills, budgeting, and other skills to promote their long-term economic independence and the well-being of their children.)
Are emancipated teen parents automatically exempt from the living arrangement rules?
No. Despite having adult status in some areas, emancipated minors do not have all of the legal rights of adults. They are still subject to legal restrictions phrased in terms of age. The living arrangement rules in the federal welfare reform law apply to any person who is under 18 years old (42 U.S.C. ' 608(a)(5)(A)(ii)(I)). Some emancipated minors, will, of course, fall into one of the five federal exemption criteria. While the federal rules do not specify emancipation as an exemption category, states can develop their own policies concerning emancipated minors as long as those policies are consistent with federal requirements. .
To achieve fairness and consistency in the application of the TANF living arrangement rules to emancipated teen parents, states should adopt laws, regulations, or policy guidance explicitly addressing how emancipated teens= cases will be handled.
Finally, since many emancipated teens have been living independently for some time, and may be estranged from their parents and relatives, in the rare event that an emancipated teen parent is forced to return to the home of a parent or relative to qualify for TANF benefits, state agencies should provide counseling and other supportive services to minimize any harmful effects of the transition on the teen parent and her child.

What are the characteristics that define an effective nonprofit organization?
Grantmakers for Effective Organizations, an affinity group of the Council on Foundations, defines an effective nonprofit as one that has "the ability to fulfill its mission through a blend of sound management, strong governance, and a persistent rededication to achieving results." Establishing a nonprofit organization requires a full understanding of the key characteristics that will be important to future funders. They include a vital mission, clear lines of accountability, adequate facilities, reliable and diverse revenue streams, and high-quality programs and services.
As you embark upon the first steps of legally incorporating a nonprofit organization, drafting the bylaws, and building a board of directors, it is essential to keep these characteristics in mind.
This tutorial describes 12 tasks you will need to accomplish as part of the process of establishing a nonprofit organization:
File the certificate of incorporation
Select individuals to serve on the board of directors
Develop vision and mission statements
Establish bylaws and board policies
Obtain an employer identification number (EIN)
Open a bank account and establish check signing procedures
File for federal tax exemption
Follow state and local nonprofit regulations
Find office space and obtain office equipment
Recruit staff and prepare a personnel manual
Establish a payroll system and procure necessary insurance coverage
Develop an overall fundraising plan

the above.. sounds far to assinine to bother me with. I suspect I'll just get an over the counter deleware nonprofit to save myself the hassle.
I saw what they did over at Cafarty and really.. I just wasn't impressed with all the hooplah.
-
OR, you could email IZZY and ask her !
IZZY's never responded to posts asking for names of her Board Members, or Federal Tax Exemption, etc.
Maybe IZZY knows some short-cuts? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

WhaT a petty bitch, eh?

She is what she is.. I for one won't be bothered with her anymore. I've decided to toss her in the same metaphorically feces filled receptacle that I traditionally reserve for the who, mr. rogers, PB Mom, Ottawa 5, and willy wonka. The 'Shit' can is my special place for people who no longer warrant my full attention. They've proven themselves either to idiotic, psychotic, or just flat out annoying.
Sadly for CCM girl this also means she loses one of her few defenders that people, well some people... ok very few people, take seriously. I'd like to think that I at least get a bit more consideration than the Who does.
Such is life.

how about another way to get rid of abusive kids besides programs. Parents don't deserve abuse either
-
Sounds like a novel idea.. create a following of interested people and launch your own initiative.
Certainly isn't something I'm to inclined to be concerned with.

Sounds like Che Gookie and his mom pulled the train together. Did you ever start fucking your mom voluntarily, Che? I read your blog regularly.

More kids are abused by parents than vice versa.
Frankly a parent should be able to parent enough that they don't get 'abused'.
Parent abuse by children is a fucking crybaby ploy and false argument 9 times out of 10. They just don't like back talk :roll:

Yuck, you gotta be kidding. Defend that statement. It's bizarre.
