Activities or mission (Part I)

Lifelong education and therapy for people with developmental and special healthcare needs.

  • St. Vincent's Special Needs Center operates residential programs to provide living facilities for multi handicapped adults. There were approximately 47 adults in this program at the end of the fiscal year. St. Vincent's Special Needs Center also operates residential services for children who require 24 hour nursing care. Approximately 4 children were in this program at the end of the fiscal year. The State of Connecticut provided substantially all of the funding for these programs. The adult program began in 1985 and the program for children began in 2001. These programs allow individuals with disabilities "to live in the community" with the assistance of a dedicated residential services staff and support services. Children in residential services receive education and therapeutic services five days a week.

    Expenses $11,478,695 · Revenue $10,107,066

  • The Feroleto Children's Development Center provides a special education school for children with multiple developmental and medical conditions. The school has been certified by the State of Connecticut as an approved private special education program since 1960. It is offered as an alternative placement to school systems for children ages three to twenty-one with multiple developmental and/or medical needs such as cerebral palsy, acquired brain injury, seizure disorders, neuro motor diseases and medical conditions requiring nursing support services. The school provided services to approximately 76 students during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025.

    Expenses $9,397,429 · Revenue $10,366,589

St. Vincent's Special Needs Services provides the support, training, job development, and on-site assistance which enable men and women challenged by developmental disabilities to break free of the old stereotypes of "handicapped" workers. For our program participants, it means new opportunities for doing productive, meaningful work, and being paid for it in the business community. Approximately 99 adults were in this program at the end of the fiscal year. The State of Connecticut provided substantially all of the funding for this program.

    Expenses $3,211,526 · Revenue $3,552,435

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

  • 4b · Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan
  • 7 · Other non-fixed payments
