The organization operates tenant legal clinics, leadership and organizing programs (T.O.L.D.), youth programming (Stand & Deliver), homeless-prevention work, homeownership guidance, and food-access efforts (Bodega Friday). The EIN 80-0209989 is associated with the organization in publicly available nonprofit filings; PALANTE is an active 501(c)(3) with recent program activity and tax filings through fiscal year ending June 2024.

In scale and funding, PALANTE reported materially larger revenue in its most recent publicly filed year (fiscal year ending June 2024) than in prior years and has continued operating community events, conferences, and municipal grant/contract activity across 2023–2025, demonstrating ongoing operations and donor-facing programming.

Notable achievements

Demystifying Housing Conference
