• Senator Philip D. Lewis Homeless Resource Center (HRC)The Organization is a partner agency of Palm Beach County's Homeless Resource Center (HRC), which opened in 2012. The HRC serves as Palm Beach County's "front door" for access to homeless services. The Organization operates the family division and provides homeless families with assessments, case management, access to mainstream resources, vital shelter and housing services, and permanent housing. The HRC family division receives funding from multiple sources, including Palm Beach County, HUD, private foundations, and partnering agencies. Over 4,500, calls were received by the HRC family division resulting in 2,015 individuals, of whom, 734 were adults and 1,281 were children, receiving services during the fiscal year. 86% of families who were housed by the HRC maintained stable housing after one year as evidenced by not re-entering the homeless system.

The Organization rehabilitated and constructed a total of 41 housing units in the City of Lake Worth as a result of this opportunity. A total of 17 units were sold by the Organization to income-qualified households between 2010 and 2014. Twenty-four units were retained by the Organization and are currently being used as affordable, defined as below fair market rent rates, rental properties for low-income families.

• Mental Health WellnessThe Mental Health Wellness Program's (MHW) primary goal is eliminating barriers to mental health services for the Organization's high-need participants and to improve their mental health and family functioning. Though many families served by the Agency are in need of mental health services, a significant portion of the Organization's families do not engage with therapists due to barriers such as lack of transportation, acceptable health coverage, financial requirements, and provider availability. In addition, the onsite therapist is available for crisis intervention and de-escalation, and provides guidance to case managers of the families. 56 individuals, including 15 children, engaged in therapy during the fiscal year. 95% of the clients enrolled in the program have shown improved mental health based on scores in the DSM-5 Cross Cutting Symptom Measures tool. The Building Your Future job coaching program was created to assist clients in preparing for and increasing employment as well as setting up goals to obtain training and education. 43 new clients engaged in services with the Job Coach Manager this year.

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.
