The Positive Results Corporation

What The Positive Results Corporation does

The Positive Results Corporation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1992 and headquartered in Lawndale, California, that delivers trauma-informed programs targeting domestic violence, sexual assault, and youth violence prevention. Its mission focuses on BIPOC and LGBTQ+ youth and adult survivors in the greater Los Angeles area, with national reach achieved through partnerships rather than direct service delivery. The organization operates a portfolio of nine named programs including Youth Development & Youth Leadership, Healing Through Trauma, Mental Health Ambassador Program (a paid opportunity for ages 18-27), Wine Down Wednesday, Self-Love Journal Club, SoulCare Oasis, Prom Dress & Tux Gift Away, Professional Development, and Reproductive Justice and Maternal Health. Programs are delivered via direct community programming and through channel partnerships with K-12 school districts, California State Universities (Dominguez Hills, Long Beach, Northridge), the Los Angeles Police Department (including the co-developed Cadet Leadership Academy with 500+ graduates twice annually), LA County agencies, healthcare providers, and faith-based organizations.

PRC has no proprietary technology platform; its core 'product' is human-delivered, culturally specific education, advocacy training, and case management. The business model is donation- and grant-dependent: revenue streams comprise individual donations (tax-deductible under 501(c)(3) status, EIN 95-4455668), federal and state government grants (Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women, LA County agencies), foundation grants (Kaiser Permanente, Annenberg Foundation, Blue Shield of California Foundation, Allstate Foundation), and corporate sponsorships (Edison International, Southern California Gas, Verizon, JPMorgan Chase). Services are provided free of charge to beneficiaries. Leadership is headed by CEO Kandee Lewis, a certified domestic violence and sexual assault prevention advocate with multiple regional awards; the team comprises 1-10 employees supplemented by program directors and external consultants in HR and executive advisory roles.
