KCHC OFFERS A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO HELPING VULNERABLE PEOPLE BUILD PRODUCTIVE AND SELF-SUSTAINING LIVES BY PROVIDING INTENSIVE WRAPAROUND CLIENT CARE AS WELL AS SHELTER WHEN POSSIBLE. EVERYTHING KCHC DOES IS DELIVERED WITH RESPECT, DIGNITY AND GENUINE CARING, DELIVERING ON A PROMISE OF HOME, HELP AND HOPE. PROGRAMS INCLUDE HOSPITALITY HOUSE FAMILY SHELTER, THE LANDING PLACE - COMPREHENSIVE YOUTH PROGRAM, COMPREHENSIVE CASE MANAGEMENT, 'AFTERCARE', EMERGENCY SERVICES AND SUPPLIES, OUTBOUND FOOD PANTRY, TRANSPORTATION AND LOVE. WHO WE ARE WE ARE A NON-PROFIT HOMELESS ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO BRINGING OUR HOMELESS FAMILIES BACK TO SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTIVE INDEPENDENCE.

| Desc | COMPREHENSIVE CASE MANAGEMENT: A RELATIONALLY FOCUSED TEAM OF PROFESSIONAL, EXPERIENCED CASE MANAGERS, IN CONCERT WITH OUR MENTAL HEALTH SPECIALIST ASSIST HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FULLY INTEGRATED, INCLUSIVE PLAN OF CARE, SPECIFIC TO EACH CLIENT. FOLLOWING AN EXTENSIVE CLIENT INTAKE AND PSYCHOSOCIAL ASSESSMENT, THE CARE PLAN GUIDES OUR CLIENTS IN EVALUATING AND ADDRESSING THEIR MOST URGENT NEEDS ON AN ECONOMIC, PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL LEVEL. THEY MAY INCLUDE: SHELTER & HOUSING, FOOD INSECURITY, CLOTHING & HYGIENE, CHILDCARE, PHYSICAL & MENTAL HEALTHCARE, TRANSPORTATION, EDUCATION, JOB SKILLS TRAINING, FINANCIAL LITERACY AND LIFE-SKILLS LEARNING. SINCE THERE IS NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IN THE MID-COAST, AND 70% OF OUR CLIENTS DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A VEHICLE, THEY TRADITIONALLY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO ACCESS GEOGRAPHICALLY CHALLENGING AND DISCONNECTED SERVICE PROVIDERS. OUR PROGRAM IS UNIQUE BECAUSE IT ALLOWS OUR CLIENTS TO BEGIN REBUILDING THEIR LIVES WITH A PLAN OF CARE ESTABLISHED, COORDINATED AND ACCOUNTABLE THROUGH ONE CENTRALIZED "HUB". THIS ALSO MINIMIZES REDUNDANT OR INCOMPLETE EFFORTS. WE SEEK COLLABORATION WITH VIRTUALLY ALL AGENCIES AND SOCIAL SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS IN OUR AREA TO IDENTIFY ANY AND ALL SUPPORT FOR WHICH OUR CLIENTS MIGHT BE ELIGIBLE, AND GUIDE THEM THROUGH THE PROCESS OF SECURING BENEFITS TO ROUND OUT THEIR PLAN GOALS. | Desc |

| Desc | SHELTER PROGRAM: OUR HOSPITALITY HOUSE FAMILY SHELTER IS AN EXTENDED-STAY FACILITY FOR UP TO 23 INDIVIDUALS AT A TIME; VERY OFTEN ABOUT HALF OF THE RESIDENTS ARE CHILDREN OF SCHOOL AGE OR YOUNGER. HOSPITALITY HOUSE RESIDENTS (WHO REPRESENT 5%-10% OF OUR ACTIVE CLIENT CASELOAD), ARE ENGAGED IN THE FULL SPECTRUM OF OUR PROGRAMS. AN AVERAGE STAY IS 6-9 MONTHS. HOSPITALITY HOUSE IS 'HOME' TO THE FAMILIES WHO LIVE THERE UNTIL THEY HAVE SECURED PERMANENT HOUSING. IT IS NOT AN 'OVERNIGHT' SHELTER, BUT A SUPPORTIVE CARING ENVIRONMENT WHERE THE SUPPORT OF STAFF AND PEERS TRANSFORMS LIVES. OFTEN WHEN CLIENTS LEAVE OUR SHELTER, THE CHILDREN ARE VERY SAD TO LEAVE 'THEIR HOME'. THIS SPEAKS VOLUMES TO THE POWER OF THE 'WAY WE DELIVER OUR PROGRAMMING'. | Desc |

| Desc | AFTERCARE: AFTER A CLIENT IS HOUSED, WE REMAIN FULLY ENGAGED IN THEIR LIVES THROUGH OUR AFTERCARE PROGRAM, WHICH AFFORDS ON-GOING CASE MANAGER AND PROGRAM SUPPORT WITHOUT TIME CONSTRAINTS. THIS CONTINUED GUIDANCE IS VITAL BECAUSE WHILE CLIENTS ARE NO LONGER HOMELESS, THEY MAY NOT YET HAVE THE ABILITIES OR RESOURCES NECESSARY TO ENSURE SELF-SUFFICIENCY FOR THE LONG TERM. ONCE STABLE AND NO LONGER IN A CRISIS MODE, THEY BECOME MORE RECEPTIVE TO ADDRESSING UNDERLYING ISSUES AND OBTAINING THE EDUCATION OR SKILLS NEEDED. CASE MANAGERS REMAIN ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN THEIR CLIENTS' LIVES, MONITORING THEIR CARE PLAN TO ENSURE THAT KEY OBJECTIVES ARE ATTAINED OR IF NECESSARY, REDEFINED. A CLIENT DOES NOT "GRADUATE" UNTIL THEY HAVE THE NECESSARY SKILLS AND RESOURCES TO (CONTINUED AT SCHEDULE O) MAINTAIN THEIR INDEPENDENCELONG TERM. AFTERCARE IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF OUR HIGH RATE OF SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES. OUR PHILOSOPHY INCLUDES A DEEP COMMITMENT TO BRINGING A CLIENT TO THEIR ABSOLUTE BEST SELF. PART OF SELF- DISCOVERY IS HELPING UNCOVER WHAT REIGNITES THE PILOT LIGHT OF 'HOPE', THUS RE CHARGING MOTIVATION TO TRY, TO CHANGE BEHAVIORS AS NEEDED AND TO IMPROVE EARNING POTENTIAL FOR A HOPEFUL FUTURE. | Desc |

| Desc | EMERGENCY SERVICES: OPENED IN 2017, OUR WELCOME CENTER ALLOWS US TO QUICKLY EXTEND CARE SERVICES AND RESOURCES TO THE HOMELESS IN CRISIS. WE ALSO PROVIDE FOOD, CLOTHING AND GENERAL HOUSEHOLD GOODS, AND OFFER SHOWER AND LAUNDRY FACILITIES. TRANSPORTATION: OUR DEDICATED VANS THAT SUPPORT YOUTH AND ADULT PROGRAMS, SHUTTLE CLIENTS TO THEIR JOBS OR EMPLOYMENT INTERVIEWS, CHILDCARE FACILITIES, AND HEALTHCARE & SERVICE PROVIDERS. A SECOND VEHICLE WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY, TO ACCOMMODATE OVERFLOW AND OFF-HOUR TRANSPORTATION NEEDS SUCH AS CONTINUING EDUCATION WHICH IS OFTEN ONLY OFFERED IN EVENING HOURS. THE LANDING PLACE: TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING SEGMENTS OF THE HOMELESS POPULATION - UNACCOMPANIED ADOLESCENTS AND TEENS - IN 2017 WE OPENED THE LANDING PLACE, A COMPREHENSIVE YOUTH PROGRAM FOR "AT RISK- AND HOMELESS TEENS. THE LANDING PLACE IS PRIVATELY FUNDED FOR 5 YEARS, WHICH ALLOWS US A RUNWAY TO DISCOVER THE MOST EFFECTIVE PROGRAMMING POSSIBLE FOR OUR YOUTH. OUR PROGRAM IS LOW BARRIER AND HIGHLY RELATIONAL- NUANCED TO CULTURAL IDENTITIES, NEEDS AND INTERESTS, AND ADAPTIVE TO CHANGE AS REQUIRED. THE FIVE YEAR UNRESTRICTED FUNDING ALSO AFFORDS US THE LIBERTY TO INVESTIGATE NEW PROTOCOLS AND MODELS OF CARE THAT WILL BE GERMANE TO THE WIDE RANGE OF AGE-GROUPS WE ARE SEEING SO FAR IN OUR TEEN CENTER. THE LANDING PLACE DROP-IN CENTER OFFERS A SAFE SPACE SUPERVISED BY A NON- JUDGMENTAL RELATIONAL TEAM. WE OFFER HEALTHY ACTIVITIES, HOT MEALS, SUPPLIES, SCHOOL & COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND TRANSPORTATION BY A DEDICATED VAN. EMERGENCY SHELTER FOR UNACCOMPANIED YOUTH IS PLANNED FOR 2019 AS IS A 'MOBILE' OUTREACH UNIT OFFERING SUPPORT TO BOTH PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN. SEVERAL OF THE MOST CRITICAL BARRIERS FACED BY THE HOMELESS - SHELTER AND AVAILABLE & AFFORDABLE HOUSING - ARE BECOMING MORE CHALLENGING. THEREFORE, WE MUST ASSUME A PRO-ACTIVE, ENTERPRISING ROLE AND WHERE SOLUTIONS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, EXPLORE POTENTIAL WAYS TO DEVELOP THEM. WITH OUR COLLABORATIVE PARTNER, MID-COAST HABITAT FOR HUMANITY, IN 2017 WE CONSTRUCTED A 192 SQ. FT. PROTOTYPE "TINY HOME". WE ARE WORKING WITH THE TOWN OF ROCKPORT TOWARD RECEIVING APPROVAL FOR 8-12 ADDITIONAL STRUCTURES ON OUR CAMPUS, WHICH WOULD PROVIDE US WITH MUCH-NEEDED EXPANDED SHELTER CAPACITY. WE ARE GRATIFIED THAT OUR "TINY HOME" INITIATIVE ATTRACTED THE ATTENTION OF THE MAINE STATE HOUSING AUTHORITY, WHICH HAS ALLOCATED 500,000 IN FUNDING TO KNOX COUNTY FOR A PILOT PROGRAM - WHICH WE WILL BE COORDINATING WITH MID- COAST HABITAT FOR HUMANITY - TO DEVELOP A PERMANENT, SUPPORTED AND BALANCED "SMALL FOOTPRINT" AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMMUNITY. | Desc |

| FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION | KNOX COUNTY'S HOMELESS COALITION'S(KCHC) MISSION IS TO BE THE CENTER OF EXCELLENCE IN BREAKING CYCLES OF POVERTY AND HOMELESSNESS IN MID-COAST MAINE. KCHC OFFERS A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO HELPING VULNERABLE PEOPLE BUILD PRODUCTIVE AND SELF-SUSTAINING LIVES BY PROVIDING INTENSIVE WRAPAROUND CLIENT CARE AS WELL AS SHELTER WHEN POSSIBLE. EVERYTHING KCHC DOES IS DELIVERED WITH RESPECT, DIGNITY AND GENUINE CARING, DELIVERING ON A PROMISE OF HOME, HELP AND HOPE. PROGRAMS INCLUDE HOSPITALITY HOUSE FAMILY SHELTER, THE LANDING PLACE - COMPREHENSIVE YOUTH PROGRAM, COMPREHENSIVE CASE MANAGEMENT, 'AFTERCARE', EMERGENCY SERVICES AND SUPPLIES, OUTBOUND FOOD PANTRY, TRANSPORTATION AND LOVE. WHO WE ARE WE ARE A NON-PROFIT HOMELESS ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO BRINGING OUR HOMELESS FAMILIES BACK TO SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTIVE INDEPENDENCE. WE DO THIS BY KEEPING THE CLIENT AT THE CENTER OF EVERYTHING WE DO, AND WRAPPING EACH HUMAN BEING IN COMPREHENSIVE, CAREFULLY PLANNED RELATIONALLY BASED PROGRAMMING. WE EARN TRUST, THEN GRADUALLY-TOGETHER WITH OUR HARD-WORKING CLIENTS-- REMOVE BARRIERS TO INDEPENDENCE OVER A SUSTAINED PERIOD OF TIME UNTIL A FAMILY IS READY TO FLY. EVERYTHING WE DO IS DELIVERED WITH RESPECT, DIGNITY AND GENUINE CARING. OUR EFFORTS ARE DRIVEN BY WHAT IS BEST FOR EACH -AND NOT BY A RANDOM FUNDING REQUIREMENT THAT DOESN'T FIT OUR COMMITMENT TO COMPREHENSIVE SUSTAINED SUPPORT. OUR CUSTOMIZED PLANS OF CARE ARE STEEPED IN A COMMITMENT TO ADDRESSING EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL, SOCIAL AND VOCATIONAL NEEDS FOR THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOMES. THE KNOX COUNTY HOMELESS COALITION WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2014 TO FILL THE UNMET NEEDS OF THE HOMELESS IN THE MID-COAST, SERVING KNOX AND WALDO COUNTIES (INCLUDING BELFAST), AND PARTS OF LINCOLN. WE ARE THE ONLY DEDICATED HOMELESS-SERVICES ORGANIZATION IN THE AREA, PROVIDING COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTIONS TO ENABLE HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES TO ACHIEVE OUR GOAL OF SUSTAINED INDEPENDENCE. OUR MISSION IS TO BREAK THE CYCLES OF POVERTY AND HOMELESSNESS, EMPOWERING CLIENTS TO REALIZE AND MAINTAIN PRODUCTIVE, SELF-RELIANT AND INDEPENDENT LIVES, CONTRIBUTING TO THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. IN LITTLE OVER 4 YEARS, WE HAVE TRANSITIONED NEARLY 700 PEOPLE FROM HOMELESSNESS INTO STABLE HOUSING. FOR THOSE WHO REMAIN ACTIVE IN OUR COMPLETE PROGRAM, OUR SUCCESS RATE FOR SUSTAINED INDEPENDENT LIVING IS A REMARKABLE 90%-95%. THE COALITION HAS A PASSIONATE, DEDICATED 30+ MEMBER STAFF INCLUDING MASTERS' TRAINED SOCIAL WORKERS AND A MENTAL HEALTH SPECIALIST. EACH YEAR, APPROXIMATELY 300 VOLUNTEERS FROM THE COMMUNITY PROVIDE 3,000+ HOURS OF THEIR TIME ON BEHALF OF OUR CLIENTS. OUR BOARD AND LEADERSHIP IS VISIONARY, AND WE HAVE DEVELOPED BROAD COMMUNITY, PRIVATE DONOR AND FOUNDATION SUPPORT. WHY WE ARE IN MAINE, MORE THAN 162,000 PEOPLE LIVE IN POVERTY, AND RECENT REPORTS ESTIMATE THAT IN 2017, APPROXIMATELY 6,300 - 7,000 OF THEM WERE HOMELESS. WHILE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE OF HOMELESS PEOPLE WHO ARE MEMBERS OF FAMILIES IS 38%, FAMILIES AND CHILDREN CONSTITUTE NEARLY 80% OF OUR CURRENT CLIENT CASELOAD. THE HOMELESS OFTEN ARE VICTIMS OF "GENERATIONAL POVERTY", THEIR LIVES FREQUENTLY ROOTED IN A HISTORY OF PHYSICAL ABUSE OR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, UNRESOLVED PHYSICAL OR MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, LEARNING DISABILITIES, INCOMPLETE EDUCATION, LIMITED JOB TRAINING AND INADEQUATE LIFE-COPING SKILLS. THE COMMON THREAD THAT WEAVES THROUGHOUT THE LIVES OF ALL OUR CLIENTS IS TRAUMA - EMOTIONAL OR PSYCHOLOGICAL - OFTEN STEMMING FROM CHILDHOOD. WHILE MANY HUMAN SERVICES ORGANIZATIONS ADDRESS THE CONSEQUENCES OF POVERTY, THE CAUSES ARE NOT REMEDIED, LEAVING A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE POPULATION INCAPABLE OF ACHIEVING SELF-SUFFICIENCY. OUR METHODOLOGY DIVERGES FROM THE CONVENTIONAL APPROACH BECAUSE NOT ONLY DO WE PROVIDE FOR THE IMMEDIATE, BASIC NEEDS OF HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES IN CRISIS, WE THEN HELP CLIENTS IDENTIFY AND UNRAVEL THE HISTORICAL, COMPLEX AND MULTI-FACETED ORIGINS OF THEIR CIRCUMSTANCE. THROUGH AN INDIVIDUALIZED, COMPREHENSIVE TRAUMA-INFORMED PLAN OF CARE - SPECIFIC TO OUR CLIENTS' NEEDS, GOALS AND ABILITIES - WE HELP THEM SYSTEMATICALLY ADDRESS AND REMOVE THE BARRIERS THAT INHIBIT THEM FROM AFFECTING MEANINGFUL IMPROVEMENT IN THEIR LIVES. OUR OUTCOMES AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, OUR MOST NOTEWORTHY OUTCOME IS A SUCCESS RATE OF 90%-95% OF SUSTAINED INDEPENDENCE FOR CLIENTS WHO REMAIN ACTIVE THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF OUR PROGRAMS. AND THE BENEFIT OF THESE SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES EXTENDS TO THE COMMUNITY. THE SOCIETAL COST OF HOMELESSNESS, OFTEN BORNE BY THE TAXPAYERS, FREQUENTLY IS OVERLOOKED. INADEQUATE, UNSAFE LIVING CONDITIONS COUPLED WITH PROTRACTED HUNGER AND POOR PHYSICAL/MENTAL HEALTH CARE FREQUENTLY FORCES THE HOMELESS TO RELY ON HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM. ONE ER VISIT CAN COST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR DOCTORS' FEES, DIAGNOSTICS & LABORATORY EXPENSES, AND THE EMERGENCY RESPONSE SYSTEM. DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE NATIONAL AVERAGE ANNUAL COST TO A MUNICIPALITY FOR DEDICATED HOMELESS ASSISTANCE IS MORE THAN 40,000 PER PERSON PER YEAR, ERADICATING THE CAUSES OF HOMELESSNESS REMAINS LARGELY UNADDRESSED. IN SHARP CONTRAST, OVER THE PAST 4 YEARS, THE AVERAGE COST TO THE COALITION TO MOVE A HOMELESS PERSON INTO STABLE HOUSING IS LESS THAN 9,000 PER PERSON, AND WE HAVE TRANSITIONED NEARLY 700 OF THEM. FOR A RELATIVELY MODEST AMOUNT OF MONEY, WE ARE ABLE TO: A) TRANSITION A FORMERLY HOMELESS PERSON INTO HOUSING AND A TRAJECTORY TOWARD A SELF-RELIANT, PRODUCTIVE LIFE AND B) REDUCE THE BURDEN FOR TAXPAYERS, ALLOWING RESOURCES TO BE DIRECTED TO OTHER ESSENTIAL AREAS. EFFECTIVELY, AS WE TRANSITION THE HOMELESS FROM THE CORROSIVE CYCLE OF HOMELESSNESS AND POVERTY INTO SUSTAINED INDEPENDENCE, WE ARE BEGINNING TO SEE A VERY DIFFERENT, DYNAMIC AND TRANSFORMATIVE CYCLE EVOLVE, ONE IN WHICH FORMERLY HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES AND CHILDREN CAN ASSUME A PLACE AS ACTIVE AND PRODUCTIVE MEMBERS OF A ROBUST, THRIVING COMMUNITY. 4.5 YEARS AFTER OPENING OUR FAMILY SHELTER, WE ARE PROUD TO SEE A NEW LAYER OF OUR COMMUNITY. FRIENDS WHO MET IN OUR PROGRAM ARE REMAINING POSITIVE SUPPORTS FOR ONE ANOTHER, HELPING ONE ANOTHER WITH RIDES, CHILD WATCHING AND FRIENDSHIP, AND VOLUNTEERING FOR OUR ORGANIZATION. OUR FUTURE WE CONTINUE TO SEEK TO HELP AS MANY AS POSSIBLE OF THE HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES IN OUR COMMUNITY OVERCOME THE OBSTACLES THAT HAVE PREVENTED THEM FROM ACHIEVING INDEPENDENT, FULFILLING LIVES, AND TO ADVOCATE - AND WHERE NECESSARY - BECOME A CATALYST FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOLUTIONS TO THOSE OBSTACLES. IN ORDER TO CONTINUE DELIVERING OUR EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY AND RANGE OF CARE TO OUR PRESENT CASELOAD AND EXPAND CAPACITY WHILE SUSTAINING THE CURRENT LEVEL OF SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES FOR OUR CLIENTS, WE HAVE BEGUN TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF OUR CASEWORKERS. OUR DEDICATION ALSO IS DRIVEN BY INCREASINGLY DISTURBING STATISTICS: IN MAINE, THE TEEN BIRTH RATE HAS RISEN TO 9TH IN THE US, AND THE INFANT MORTALITY RATE HAS INCREASED BY 20% OVER 5 YEARS. AND WHILE THE POVERTY LEVEL CONTINUES TO HOVER BETWEEN 12.5%-14%, THE POVERTY RATE FOR CHILDREN IS FAST APPROACHING 20%. THIS IS CAUSE FOR ALARM NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT IS A BELLWETHER MEASURE OF THE WELLBEING OF FAMILIES AND THE COMMUNITY, BUT ALSO BECAUSE OF THE CONCOMITANT RISK OF HOUSING INSTABILITY IN CHILDREN'S LIVES. AS NOTED PREVIOUSLY, UNACCOMPANIED YOUTH IS BECOMING ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING SEGMENTS OF THE HOMELESS POPULATION, SUSCEPTIBLE TO PREDATORY INFLUENCES SUCH AS THE ESCALATING OPIOID EPIDEMIC AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING. AS OUR CAPACITY INCREASES, AND OUR CARE MODELS ARE FURTHER ENHANCED, WE ARE ABLE TO MORE INTENSELY SCRUTINIZE THE PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL NEEDS OF AT-RISK CHILDREN AND YOUTH WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY. WHEN WE OPENED OUR YOUTH CENTER, WE ANTICIPATED THAT MOST OF THOSE WHO WOULD REACH OUT FOR HELP WOULD BE TEENS. HOWEVER, WE HAVE BEGUN TO WITNESS A MUCH LARGER POPULATION OF PRE-TEENS, OFTEN AS YOUNG AS 10 YEARS OF AGE. WE ARE DEVELOPING YOUTH PROGRAMS - ACROSS A BROAD AGE SPECTRUM - THAT INTEGRATE NEW RESEARCH AND INNOVATIVE MODES OF THINKING, INCLUDING ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES STUDY CONCEPTS. WE ARE COLLABORATING WITH LOCAL SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS AND TEACHERS TO IDENTIFY AND EXTEND OUR OUTREACH TO THOSE ADOLESCENTS WHO MAY BE AT THE GREATEST RISK. NEGATIVE CHILDHOOD INFLUENCES HAVE A TREMENDOUS IMPACT ON FUTURE VICTIMIZATION, OPPORTUNITIES AND LIFELONG HEALTH. WE KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE, BECAUSE THE PERNICIOUS EFFECTS OF THESE EXPERIENCES ARE CLEARLY EVIDENCED IN OUR ADULT CLIENTS. WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE NOT PERPETUATED IN THE LIVES OF FUTURE GENERATIONS AND THAT THIS DESTRUCTIVE, OFTEN INTERGENERATIONAL CYCLE IS BROKEN. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF OUR ABILITIES, WE SEEK TO ENSURE THE CHILDREN IN OUR COMMUNITIES ARE PROVIDED SAFE, STABLE, NURTURING ENVIRONMENTS, AND A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR BECOMING STRONG, RESILIENT AND SELF-RELIANT ADULTS. LOOKING TO THE FUTURE, WE RECOGNIZE THAT MAINE - WITH THE OLDEST MEDIAN AGE IN THE NATION AND A DECREASING POPULATION OF YOUNG PEOPLE - MUST DEVELO |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A | SINCE THERE IS NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IN THE MID-COAST, AND 70% OF OUR CLIENTS DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A VEHICLE, THEY TRADITIONALLY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO ACCESS GEOGRAPHICALLY CHALLENGING AND DISCONNECTED SERVICE PROVIDERS. OUR PROGRAM IS UNIQUE BECAUSE IT ALLOWS OUR CLIENTS TO BEGIN REBUILDING THEIR LIVES WITH A PLAN OF CARE ESTABLISHED, COORDINATED AND ACCOUNTABLE THROUGH ONE CENTRALIZED "HUB". THIS ALSO MINIMIZES REDUNDANT OR INCOMPLETE EFFORTS. WE SEEK COLLABORATION WITH VIRTUALLY ALL AGENCIES AND SOCIAL SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS IN OUR AREA TO IDENTIFY ANY AND ALL SUPPORT FOR WHICH OUR CLIENTS MIGHT BE ELIGIBLE, AND GUIDE THEM THROUGH THE PROCESS OF SECURING BENEFITS TO ROUND OUT THEIR PLAN GOALS. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4C | MAINTAIN THEIR INDEPENDENCELONG TERM. AFTERCARE IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF OUR HIGH RATE OF SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES. OUR PHILOSOPHY INCLUDES A DEEP COMMITMENT TO BRINGING A CLIENT TO THEIR ABSOLUTE BEST SELF. PART OF SELF- DISCOVERY IS HELPING UNCOVER WHAT REIGNITES THE PILOT LIGHT OF 'HOPE', THUS RE CHARGING MOTIVATION TO TRY, TO CHANGE BEHAVIORS AS NEEDED AND TO IMPROVE EARNING POTENTIAL FOR A HOPEFUL FUTURE. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4D | EMERGENCY SERVICES: OPENED IN 2017, OUR WELCOME CENTER ALLOWS US TO QUICKLY EXTEND CARE SERVICES AND RESOURCES TO THE HOMELESS IN CRISIS. WE ALSO PROVIDE FOOD, CLOTHING AND GENERAL HOUSEHOLD GOODS, AND OFFER SHOWER AND LAUNDRY FACILITIES. TRANSPORTATION: OUR DEDICATED VANS THAT SUPPORT YOUTH AND ADULT PROGRAMS, SHUTTLE CLIENTS TO THEIR JOBS OR EMPLOYMENT INTERVIEWS, CHILDCARE FACILITIES, AND HEALTHCARE & SERVICE PROVIDERS. A SECOND VEHICLE WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY, TO ACCOMMODATE OVERFLOW AND OFF-HOUR TRANSPORTATION NEEDS SUCH AS CONTINUING EDUCATION WHICH IS OFTEN ONLY OFFERED IN EVENING HOURS. THE LANDING PLACE: TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING SEGMENTS OF THE HOMELESS POPULATION - UNACCOMPANIED ADOLESCENTS AND TEENS - IN 2017 WE OPENED THE LANDING PLACE, A COMPREHENSIVE YOUTH PROGRAM FOR "AT RISK- AND HOMELESS TEENS. THE LANDING PLACE IS PRIVATELY FUNDED FOR 5 YEARS, WHICH ALLOWS US A RUNWAY TO DISCOVER THE MOST EFFECTIVE PROGRAMMING POSSIBLE FOR OUR YOUTH. OUR PROGRAM IS LOW BARRIER AND HIGHLY RELATIONAL- NUANCED TO CULTURAL IDENTITIES, NEEDS AND INTERESTS, AND ADAPTIVE TO CHANGE AS REQUIRED. THE FIVE YEAR UNRESTRICTED FUNDING ALSO AFFORDS US THE LIBERTY TO INVESTIGATE NEW PROTOCOLS AND MODELS OF CARE THAT WILL BE GERMANE TO THE WIDE RANGE OF AGE-GROUPS WE ARE SEEING SO FAR IN OUR TEEN CENTER. THE LANDING PLACE DROP-IN CENTER OFFERS A SAFE SPACE SUPERVISED BY A NON- JUDGMENTAL RELATIONAL TEAM. WE OFFER HEALTHY ACTIVITIES, HOT MEALS, SUPPLIES, SCHOOL & COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND TRANSPORTATION BY A DEDICATED VAN. EMERGENCY SHELTER FOR UNACCOMPANIED YOUTH IS PLANNED FOR 2019 AS IS A 'MOBILE' OUTREACH UNIT OFFERING SUPPORT TO BOTH PARENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN. SEVERAL OF THE MOST CRITICAL BARRIERS FACED BY THE HOMELESS - SHELTER AND AVAILABLE & AFFORDABLE HOUSING - ARE BECOMING MORE CHALLENGING. THEREFORE, WE MUST ASSUME A PRO-ACTIVE, ENTERPRISING ROLE AND WHERE SOLUTIONS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, EXPLORE POTENTIAL WAYS TO DEVELOP THEM. WITH OUR COLLABORATIVE PARTNER, MID-COAST HABITAT FOR HUMANITY, IN 2017 WE CONSTRUCTED A 192 SQ. FT. PROTOTYPE "TINY HOME". WE ARE WORKING WITH THE TOWN OF ROCKPORT TOWARD RECEIVING APPROVAL FOR 8-12 ADDITIONAL STRUCTURES ON OUR CAMPUS, WHICH WOULD PROVIDE US WITH MUCH-NEEDED EXPANDED SHELTER CAPACITY. WE ARE GRATIFIED THAT OUR "TINY HOME" INITIATIVE ATTRACTED THE ATTENTION OF THE MAINE STATE HOUSING AUTHORITY, WHICH HAS ALLOCATED 500,000 IN FUNDING TO KNOX COUNTY FOR A PILOT PROGRAM - WHICH WE WILL BE COORDINATING WITH MID- COAST HABITAT FOR HUMANITY - TO DEVELOP A PERMANENT, SUPPORTED AND BALANCED "SMALL FOOTPRINT" AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMMUNITY. |
