The Hub Urban Ministries does not meet the following 2 Standards for Charity Accountability:
Standard 17 (Web Site Disclosures)
Include on any charity websites that solicit contributions, the same information that is recommended for annual reports, as well as the mailing address of the charity and electronic access to its most recent IRS Form 990.
The Hub Urban Ministries does not meet this standard because:
At the time of initial assessment, Hub Urban Ministry's website did not include financial disclosure information on its donate page.
Standard 18 (Privacy for Written Appeals & Internet Privacy)
Address privacy concerns of donors by (a) providing in written appeals, at least annually, a means (e.g., such as a check off box) for both new and continuing donors to inform the charity if they do not want their name and address shared outside the organization, (b) providing a clear, prominent and easily accessible privacy policy on any of its websites that tells visitors (i) what information, if any, is being collected about them by the charity and how this information will be used, (ii) how to contact the charity to review personal information collected and request corrections, (iii) how to inform the charity (e.g., a check off box) that the visitor does not wish his/her personal information to be shared outside the organization, and (iv) what security measures the charity has in place to protect personal information.
The Hub Urban Ministries does not meet this standard because:
At the time of initial assessment, Hub Urban Ministry's website did not provide a privacy policy to visitors.

Stated Purpose:
To give everyone in our city access to a restored life.
Year, State Incorporated:
2010, LA
By "restored life," Hub means to convey Rescue, Relationship, Resources, and Recovery:
Rescue from toxic physical situations and circumstances is the beginning of restoration in a person’s life. Physical surroundings and dangerous environments can create a trap, holding a person captive forever. Exit from direct danger, unhealthy environments, abuse and exploitation is key for restoration to begin; relationship meaning a relationship with God and access to safe, healthy relationships is the fuel of restoration. Access to vital relationships directly impacts a person’s identity, their self-esteem, their emotional health and their future; resources meaning that, n order for full restoration to happen in a person’s life, their basic needs must be met. A restored life begins with a healthy and safe place to live, access to food and clothing and the ability to pursue an education and become employed; and recovery, which is to say that addiction must be dealt with for a person to be truly free. Recovery is not limited to substance abuse. Recovery from mental illness, trauma, exploitation and the side effects of poverty allows a person to be fully restored, knowing who they are and what they are capable of becoming.
