Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

THE MISSION OF CAPPER FOUNDATION IS TO BUILD ABILITIES AND EMPOWER PEOPLE OF ALL AGES LIVING WITH DISABILITIES.

  • In collaboration with families and medical, educational and community professionals, services were designed to build the abilities and independent life skills of persons with disabilities. Capper Foundation provides services to infants, children, teens and adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities. Some of these disabilities include: autism, cerebral palsy, sensory processing disorder, and other orthopedic and neurological conditions. Positive outcomes to enhance their independence were accomplished by creatively adapting and applying ideas, services, education, therapies and equipment, and by providing training for those who live and work with this special population. During this year, pediatric physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/language therapy and behavior support services were conducted with 745 persons through outpatient and school contract services. Information and referral services were provided to 417 individuals. Other support and professional training activities included 77 participants. 108 people participated in therapeutic recreation activities. Residential services assisted 106 adults to live in a community setting. Adult day services provided 131 persons supports to engage in community based activities. 69 individuals participated in employment services. Targeted case management services were provided for 79 adults and children.

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.
