It serves 108 residents and 55-60 day program participants (our Citizens) who have a wide variety of disabilities. Brookwood is funded entirely by the private sector, relying on tuition, operating contributions (from individuals, foundations, corporations, and religious organizations), and Enterprise revenue derived from the sales of crafts and horticultural products produced by Brookwood Citizens, and revenue from a Cafe in which Citizens serve as waitstaff. Brookwood teaches both life skills and vocational skills so that its Citizens can develop their individual talents to the maximum extent possible and gain a sense of self worth. Operating donations support scholarships, salaries of teachers in the various Enterprises, staff development, and special projects related to the care of Citizens. Donations for endowments and for new facilities and program development are also solicited from the private sector. 6528624 420643 5762721 The Briarwood School is a school for children with learning disabilities. It serves 300 children in grades K through 12 who have a wide variety of learning disabilities. The majority of the operating funds are received through monthly tuitions, which are based on a "break-even" concept. That is, tuitions should cover operating costs such as teaching and administrative salaries, supplies, and the operating and maintenance expense of the facilities. All disbursements are made to vendors offering the best price for the product or service needed. Teachers are paid based on experience and background. Any child with a learning disability is eligible for enrollment. Donations are used to provide scholarships, equipment, and for building replacement and expansion. 14660385 true true false false false false false false false true true true true true false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false true false true false false false false false false false false true 7 0 true 616 true true true false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false true false false false false 9 6 true false false false false false false true true false false false true true true true true true true true false false X Troy Jasmin 2813752185 1752 FM 1489 Brookshire TX 77423 Mrs Yvonne Streit 50.00 X X 67581 0 14412 Mrs Vivian Shudde 50.00 X X 104490 0 23884 Mrs Dea L Larson 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mr Thomas H Wilson 4.00 X 0 0 0 Mr Stephen C Beasley 6.00 X X 0 0 0 Mr Michael J Brady 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Mr J Scott Thompson 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mr David R Streit 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Mr D Gibson Walton 1.00 X 0 0 0 172071 38296 1 false false false 0 730453 3846123 347387 4576576 Various program rev. 611710 97661 97661 Tuition-Brookwood Comm. 611710 5932869 5932869 Tuition-Briarwood School 611710 5762721 5762721 The Cafe at Brookwood 722100 943289 943289 12736540 1223943 1223943 0 5858 5858 0 8368715 800 9297838 -929123 800 -928323 -928323 285657 730453 94259 191398 191398 0 3548607 3993603 -444996 -729184 284188 0 17360996 12007356 284188 492876 0 1354695 1354695 0 0 210367 185771 16397 8199 0 9030767 7727342 898208 405217 106660 77922 28738 1251274 1163227 44208 43839 658425 566624 62330 29471 0 0 40320 8064 32256 0 0 43504 43504 91279 71621 1935 17723 0 1046772 946294 57792 42686 28391 17035 4258 7098 0 600274 516135 52011 32128 16573 16573 0 18483 18483 0 0 1647042 1454195 133557 59290 214762 192745 16329 5688 Uncollectible amounts 8043 8043 Other expenses 279614 100765 101160 77689 Equipment maintenance & repair 283946 234851 46450 2645 0 16931191 14660385 1539133 731673 309877 375006 598440 1467599 4148777 2075300 127775 163666 0 0 0 865579 846434 96318 107965 54385952 20906453 32355329 33479499 30981152 33623784 1668993 2934458 0 0 131045 138119 71283285 75211830 922144 905660 2071613 2534299 439738 718920 3433495 4158879 X 40023499 43917494 5067187 4199509 22759104 22935948 67849790 71052951 71283285 75211830 X false true true X false false X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 26078546 1112554 2386795 29577895 29722212 1222982 -4866648 26078546 0.22700 0.74710 0.02590 false false false 1909291 1909291 44643628 14409028 30234600 2472448 1597296 875152 1171713 1107194 64519 4188872 3792935 395937 33479499 Funds held for students 178293 Deferred compensation 152335 Construction contracts payable 388292 718920 17360996 16931191 429805 2773356 2773356 3203161 22729756 2773356 3993603 6766959 15962797 43504 1354695 1398199 17360996 19526595 3993603 3993603 15532992 43504 1354695 1398199 16931191 Part XIII, Line 4b Part XIII, Line 4b: Other revenue amounts included on 990 but not included in F/S Briarwood School financial aid $420643 Brookwood Comm. financial aid $934052 Part XIII, Line 2d Part XIII, Line 2d: Other expenses and losses per audited F/S Cost of Goods Sold $3993603 Part XII, Line 4b Part XII, Line 4b: Other revenue amounts included on 990 but not included in F/S Briarwood School financial aid $420643 Brookwood Comm. financial aid $934052 Part XII, Line 2d Part XII, Line 2d: Other revenue amounts included in F/S but not included on form 990 Cost of Goods Sold $3993603 Part V, Line 4 Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.
