  • THROUGH OUR PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY PROGRAM, WE PROVIDED HOUSING AND MENTORING (CASE MANAGEMENT) TO 17 TRANSITIONAL AGE YOUTH (TAY) WHO RECEIVE HOUSING, MENTORING AND A VARIETY OF SUPPORTIVE SERVICES (EDUCATION, FOOD, TRANSPORTATION, FINANCIAL LITERACY) ACCORDING TO THEIR NEEDS. TAY ESTABLISH THEIR OWN GOALS AND OUR MENTORS SUPPORT THEM WITH PROGRESS AND ACCOUNTABILITY. THIS PROGRAM INCLUDES "SCATTERED SITE HOUSING" WHERE RTB IS THE LESSOR AND ALSO INCLUDES THE UTILIZATION OF "HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHERS" WHERE YOUTH CAN ENTER LEASES DIRECTLY.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
