      <Description>Residential Treatment Services-ECH offers specialized care as well as both safe and intensive and open residential treatment services for troubled children and youth. This allows ECH to accept individuals with a wide spectrum of mental health issues. The purpose of Residential Treatment for the child/youth is stabilization and improved functioning. Comprehensive services available in each level of treatment include psychiatric and psychological care; physical health care; individual, family and group therapy provided by licensed professionals; case management; crisis intervention; medication management; special education services; and recreation and art therapy. Safe and Intensive Units (SI) serve 20 children (10 male and 10 female) ages 6 through 17. Children placed in our SI units have often suffered physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse and neglect and have highly acute needs. Youth in the SI units frequently display behaviors such as self-harming tendencies; physical and sexual aggression. Open Units serve 20 children (10 male and 10 female) ages 6 through 17. Children can directly be placed in Open Unit residential treatment but the majority usually transition to the Open Unit from SI treatment. Children in Open Unit treatment have also suffered physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse and neglect and continue to display moderate to severe mental health issues. Behaviors frequently displayed include disruptive behaviors; academic issues; running away and mental illness. Social Behavioral Learning Unit (SBLU) is a specialized unit serving 9 male youth ages 10 to 16.5 with severe mental health challenges due to physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse and neglect and diagnosed with mild/moderate retardation and/or a developmental disability. SBLU is our highest staffed unit due to the complexity of need. The average length of stay is expected to be 180 days (6 months); however, due to the complexity of need youth generally stay longer.Steppingstone Independent/Transitional Living Services- ECH's Steppingstone program is a comprehensive program that provides long-term shelter for at-risk, runaway and homeless youth ages 16-21 up to 18-months in a safe, supervised living environment. Steppingstone services are offered on both ECH's St. Louis and Kansas City campuses. Based on the youth's level of self-dependence at initial assessment, the youth is placed in the appropriate level of care and supervision in the Three Phase program in either a group living(Phase 1), structured apartment (Phase 2), or a scattered site/community apartment (Phase 3). Steppingstone provides services to help youth develop self-sufficiency including educational and employment assistance, life skills training, individual case management, and physical and mental health treatment. Steppingstone services are based on the Positive Youth Development philosophy with an overall goal of assisting youth to plan for a stable, safe living environment after exiting the program. Family and Personal Counseling Center (FPCC) - ECH offers a wide range of office and community-based mental health services that include individual, family, couples and group counseling sessions. FPCC Services Include:Family Focus Residential Treatment Services which provides individualized, intensive, therapeutic services for children under the age of 17 in residential treatment with a goal to reunify the child with his/her family. The program design provides 270 days (9 months) of therapeutic intervention. Children receive up to 90 days (3 months) of residential treatment while intensive intervention begins with the family in the home followed by up to 180 days (6 months) of aftercare services. The program goal is to shorten the child's out-of-home placement and increase stability in the home. Individualized treatment plans focus on safety and permanence. Family Reunification Services which provides intensive, in-home therapeutic intervention for families reunifying with a child under the age of 17 exiting residential treatment. Services are generally provided for up to 90 days (3 months) but are flexible in length and can be extended. The intensive services initially focus on reintegrating the child back into the family and then transition to creating stability and permanence in the home. Services provided include 24-hour accessibility to families; individual and family therapy; intensive case supervision by a Master's level licensed therapist; behavior management; and treatment planning and assessment.Intensive In-Home Services provides therapeutic intervention to families with children under the age of 17 in significant crisis to restore safety and stability in the home. The purpose of the program is to rapidly respond to the crisis within 24 hours of the referral to avoid escalation and out-of-home placement for the at-risk child. Family Solutions for Kids is a collaborative program that provides intensive in-home services by a licensed or provisionally licensed, Masters Level therapist for an average of 6-8 hours per week for up to 12 weeks. Services include individual and family counseling, parent education and case management for families in crisis with youth under the age of 20 living in the home. If the youth and his/her family is in need of additional mental health services after 12 weeks, the therapist will work during the intervention to link the youth and family with community-based therapeutic services in order to create an aftercare plan that the family can sustain. Services are accessible 24-hours per day to families in case immediate intervention is needed. Contracted psychiatric services are also available to the youth and family for an estimated period of up to 180 days (6 months) to assist with assessment, stabilization for long-term gain and med management.Outpatient Counseling provides individual, family, and couples counseling at an affordable rate. Assessments are conducted to identify strengths and challenges so treatment plans can be individualized to offer practical solutions to help mediate issues. Family Case Management Services works with biological families according to the Adoption and Safe Families Act to assist with reunification and permanency for children in residential care or out-of-home placement. The program utilizes a "wrap-around" philosophy and builds upon current strengths by linking the family with other natural supports, such as extended family, neighbors, and other resources or individuals who make a positive impact within their community. Educational Services-ECH offers a range of educational services from an Early Education Center to the Carrie Elligson Gietner School, which offers alternative elementary, middle and high school programming. Early Education Center (EEC) is an accredited program providing early education services to up to 55 low-income children, ages 2 to 6 from the local community. The program model draws upon several respected sources including Parents As Teachers, Project Construct, and Head Start and builds upon each child's enthusiasm and opportunity for growth in social, emotional, cognitive and physical areas of development. Parent involvement is encouraged to ensure the parent continues to work with the child in the home with a greater understanding of their child's cognitive and emotional needs. To assist the family, the program also offers parent education, in-home Parents As Teachers consultations, emergency food and clothing assistance, and community linkages on an at-needs basis. The facility is built with sensitivity to the developmental needs of small children and has four self-contained classrooms, an outdoor play area, a reception area and small wading pool. The Carrie Elligson Gietner School provides an on-site fully accredited alternative education program for children who are not attending public school due to behavioral and/or learning challenges. The program is designed to help elementary through high-school aged students achieve emotional well being along with improved academic performance and behavioral functioning. The long-term goal for every student is reintegration to the most appropriate community-based school to ultimately achieve high school graduation; however, if reintegration is not possible, then graduation from the Carrie Elligson Gietner School with attainment of their high school diploma is the minimum goal. The program serves up to 80 students. Some students are in residential treatment at ECH while others are referred through partnerships with coordinating area public school districts.</Description>

        <Explanation>Part V, Line 4: The Organization has an informal policy which allows for payments from the annual income to be made for educational activities or any organizational activity as specified by the donor of the donor-restricted endowment funds. This is consistent with the Organization's objective to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets. Part X, Line 2: The Home and School qualify as charitable organizations as defined by Internal Revenue Code 501(c)(3), and accordingly are exempt from Federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(a) and similar provisions of state law. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the Organization's tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization files federal information returns. The statutes of limitations for information returns filed for the tax years ended September 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007 have not expired and therefore are subject to examination. The FASB issued ASC Section 740-10 (formerly known as FASB Interpretation No. 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes --- an Interpretation of FASB No. 109. This interpretation clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum standard a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. ASC Section 740-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Organization has not taken any uncertain tax position that should be accounted for under ASC Section 740-10.</Explanation>
