Programs described in its return (1)
- $21,711 spent. For 2024 our mission is to provide outreach to adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. We will provide these adults with a permanent place to live and ongoing developmental support so they are able to work, grow, and live as independently as possible. The activities provided will include, but not be limited to, providing permanent housing, personal development assistance, transportation, and supportive services based on their individual needs. Our organization expects to assist 15-25 individuals in each location. We are starting with one location in the North Atlanta, Georgia area, that will serve about 20 residents and hope to multiply more locations after that. Program participants will go through an assessment and application process. A scholarship program will be created for funds to be applied, based on the decision making process set by the board of directors. The budget goal for Beyond Communities residents is to keep their costs at approximately $2,500, which will include their rent plus programming fee. We will publicize our organization through businesses, churches, schools, and community organizations. The program will be led by the board of directors of the organization. The program will take up to 100% of the organization's time. Our programs further our exempt purpose by providing outreach to adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. It will be funded through gross receipts, grants and contributions.
