SBX Launches Free Tax Preparation Services for the Community — A New Season of Support Begins!

This year, SBX Youth and Family Services is proud to announce one of our most meaningful expansions in community support:

✨ SBX is officially a VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) site—certified in partnership with the IRS! 💼💰

After more than a year of training, preparation, and certification, our team is ready to bring FREE tax preparation services to the families we serve. This isn’t just a new program—it’s a direct investment in the economic well-being of households across the Inland Empire.

Tax season can be intimidating, confusing, and expensive. But now, families can walk into SBX and receive expert help at no cost, delivered by IRS-certified agents who understand both the technical side of tax law and the needs of the communities we serve.

Why This Matters for Our Community

Free tax preparation isn’t just a convenience—it’s a pathway to stability and opportunity. This service empowers individuals and families by helping them:

✔ Maximize their refunds

Our certified preparers ensure every eligible credit is claimed. These refunds often support groceries, bills, transportation, or savings for the future.

✔ Save money on preparation fees

Commercial tax prep can cost hundreds of dollars—money families can now keep.

✔ Gain confidence and peace of mind

With trained professionals guiding the process, families don’t have to worry about mistakes, missed credits, or filing alone.

At a time when inflation and rising costs continue to strain households, this type of support can make a real, immediate difference.

Essential Tax Credits We’ll Help You Claim

Many families qualify for credits they may not even know exist. SBX will ensure households receive the full benefits they deserve, including:

• California Earned Income Tax Credit (CalEITC)

• Young Child Tax Credit (YCTC)

• Foster Youth Tax Credit (FYTC)

These credits can dramatically increase a family’s refund and strengthen their financial foundation.
