1 other organization in the IRS Business Master File lists the same street address. matched by us

This address is a suite or unit (STE 102). Organizations that share one are often clients of the same office-services firm, accountant or registered agent rather than related to each other.

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission

ADVANCING EXCELLENCE AND INNOVATION IN ADULT LIFE SERVICES

Activities or mission (Part I)

LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS' MISSION IS TO ADVANCE EXCELLENCE AND INNOVATION IN ADULT LIFE SERVICES. COMMITTED TO ADVANCING EXCELLENCE, WE ADVOCATE FOR QUALITY SERVICES, PROMOTE INNOVATIVE PRACTICES, AND FOSTER COLLABORATION. WE SERVE THE FULL SPECTRUM OF PROVIDERS INCLUDING HOME AND COMMUNITY BASED SERVICES (HCBS), SENIOR HOUSING, LIFE PLAN COMMUNITIES (LPC)/CONTINUING CARE RETIREMENT COMMUNITIES (CCRC), ASSISTED LIVING, SUPPORTIVE LIVING, ANDSKILLED NURSING/REHABILITATION CENTERS.

  • GOVERNMENT RELATIONS: LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS PROVIDES ADVOCACY AND REGULATORY TECHNICAL SUPPORT TO MEMBERS, INCLUDING STATE AND FEDERAL ADVOCACY REPRESENTATION. ACTIVITIES INCLUDE EDUCATION AND UPDATES TO MEMBERS ON THE IMPACT OF RECENT AND ANTICIPATED LEGISLATION, REGULATORY CHANGES AFFECTING SERVICE PROVIDERS AND RESIDENTS. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS ALSO EDUCATES AND ALERTS LEGISLATORS ON ISSUES AND INTERESTS OF THE SENIOR CARE INDUSTRY, INCLUDING COORDINATING LEGISLATOR VISITS AND PROVIDING QUANTITATIVE SUPPORT OF LEGISLATIVE CHALLENGES. IN 2024, LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS ADVOCATED TO PASS LEGISLATION TO CREATE A PERMANENT MEDICATION AIDE PROGRAM. MEDICATION AIDES ARE NOW PERMITTED IN ASSISTED LIVING, SUPPORTIVE LIVING, AND NURSING HOMES. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS WORKED TO UNANIMOUSLY PASS A BILL ALLOWING NURSES IN ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITIES TO PROVIDE CATHETER CARE TO RESIDENTS, ELIMINATING THE NEED FOR EXTERNAL CARE. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS ALSO WORKED TO PASS LEGISLATION THAT STATES THAT WHEN A HEALTH CARE FACILITY IS FOUND LIABLE FOR AN INJURY TO A PATIENT OR RESIDENT BECAUSE OF A NEGLIGENT ACT PERFORMED BY AN AGENCY NURSE OR CNA, THE HEALTH CARE FACILITY HAS A RIGHT TO BE COMPENSATED BY THE NURSE AGENCY FOR ANY AND ALL EXPENSES, FINES, OR DAMAGES INCURRED RELATED TO ANY LIABILITY FOR THE NURSE AGENCY'S NEGLIGENCE, INCLUDING NEGLIGENT HIRING. IT FURTHER REQUIRES A CONTRACT ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE NURSE AGENCY AND HEALTH CARE FACILITY TO CONTAIN A PROVISION SPECIFYING THAT THE HEALTH CARE FACILITY HAS A RIGHT TO BE COMPENSATED BY THE NURSE AGENCY FOR ANY AND ALL EXPENSES, FINES, OR DAMAGES INCURRED RELATED TO ANY LIABILITY FOR A NEGLIGENT ACT PERFORMED BY A NURSE OR CNA EMPLOYED, ASSIGNED, OR REFERRED BY THE NURSE AGENCY. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS NEGOTIATED A HIGH-PRIORITY BILL ON REPORTING, POSTINGS, AND DISCLOSURES WITH MORE FAVORABLE LANGUAGE THAN INITIALLY PROPOSED FOR LIFE PLAN COMMUNITIES. THIS FOLLOWED EXTENSIVE ADVOCACY WORK, INCLUDING MULTIPLE MEETINGS WITH KEY LEGISLATORS. ULTIMATELY, THE BILL PASSED WITH LESS BURDENSOME REQUIREMENTS. ADDITIONALLY, LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS WAS ABLE TO STOP ANOTHER BILL THAT WOULD HAVE DRASTICALLY CHANGED THE ENTRANCE FEE REFUND PROCESS FOR LIFE PLAN COMMUNITIES. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS NEGOTIATED LANGUAGE ON A BILL THAT WOULD HAVE CHANGED THE COMPOSITION OF THE ASSISTED LIVING ADVISORY BOARD, MAKING IT UNFAIR AND UNBALANCED. THIS WOULD HAVE NEGATIVELY IMPACTED THE PROVIDER PERSPECTIVE ON THE BOARD, WHICH LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS CREATED THROUGH PASSED LEGISLATION IN 2023. WE STOPPED THE SENATE VERSION OF THIS YEAR'S BILL AND NEGOTIATED WITH THE SPONSOR AND STAKEHOLDERS ON THE HOUSE VERSION, SIMPLY CLARIFYING THE BOARD POSITIONS, RATHER THAN CHANGING THE COMPOSITION.

  • EDUCATIONAL: LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING ITS MEMBERS WITH THE BEST LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE MOST EFFECTIVE COSTS. WITH ITS COUNTLESS EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS, CONFERENCES, SEMINARS, AND WORKSHOPS, LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS WORKS TO ADVANCE ITS MEMBERS' UNDERSTANDING OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES IN THE ADULT CARE INDUSTRY. IN 2024, LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS CONNECTED OVER 1,000 ATTENDEES AT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND EXPO FOCUSING ON STRATEGIES FOR THRIVING IN THE RAPIDLY CHANGING SENIOR LIVING AND SERVICES ENVIRONMENT THAT INCLUDED UP TO 10 CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS DELIVERED OVER 25 PROGRAMS IN PERSON AND/OR ONLINE, MANY OF WHICH WERE OFFERED AT NO CHARGE TO MEMBERS, FOR MORE THAN 90 CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS HOSTED ANOTHER RECORD-BREAKING ASSISTED LIVING BOOTCAMP IN TWO LOCATIONS WITH OVER 160 ATTENDEES AND HOSTED AN IN-PERSON LEGAL WORKSHOP FROM THREE DIFFERENT LAW FIRMS COVERING A VARIETY OF LEGAL TOPICS. AS OF NOVEMBER 1, 2024, ALL WEBINARS CURATED BY LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS AND IOWA ARE FREE FOR ALL MEMBERS.

  • MEMBERSHIP SERVICES: LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS IS A STATEWIDE ASSOCIATION DEDICATED TO REPRESENTING THE LEADING PROVIDERS OF THE COMPLETE CONTINUUM OF SERVICES FOR OLDER ADULTS, INCLUDING NURSING CARE, ASSISTED AND SUPPORTIVE LIVING, SENIOR HOUSING AND HOME AND COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES. ON OCTOBER 31, 2024, LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS MERGED WITH LEADINGAGE IOWA. THIS STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP MAKES A SIGNIFICANT MILESTONE FOR BOTH ORGANIZATIONS, AIMED AT ENHANCING THE ABILITY TO SERVICE AND SUPPORT THE INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS WHO SERVE OLDER ADULTS IN BOTH ILLINOIS AND IOWA. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS IS HIGHLY COMMITTED TO THE ADVANCEMENT OF QUALITY AND INNOVATION IN OLDER ADULT SERVICES. IN 2024, LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS LAUNCHED A NEW NETWORKING INITIATIVE FOR MEMBERS IN VARIOUS REGIONS IN ILLINOIS AND IOWA. WITH THE MERGER WITH LEADINGAGE IOWA BRINGS A DIRECTOR OF CLINICAL SERVICES WHO HAS HELPED COUNTLESS MEMBERS ON QUESTIONS, BEST PRACTICES, COLLABORATION WITH STATE HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS, AS WELL AS PROVIDING ALL RELEVANT MEMBERS WITH CMS 5 STAR DATA INFORMATION. MEMBERS HAVE ACCESS TO A PLETHORA OF RESOURCES ON THROUGH THEIR ONLINE MEMBERSHIP PORTAL, INCLUDING REGULATORY EXPERTISE, BEST PRACTICES, WORKFORCE SOLUTIONS, PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION, AND POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS OFFERED 800+ JOB LISTINGS ON THE LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS JOB BOARD. THROUGH THE PARTNERSHIP WITH VALUE FIRST, MEMBERS SAVED ROUGHLY $325,000 ON NEW FOOD ACCOUNTS, APPROXIMATELY $40,000 ON MEDICAL, AND $35,000 WITH OTHER VENDOR PARTNERS. LEADINGAGE ILLINOIS PARTNERS WITH VALUE FIRST VENDORS TO SHARE INSIGHTS ON HELPING MEMBERS WITH SAVINGS SOLUTIONS THROUGH PRESENTATIONS AT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND EXPO, WORKSHOPS, WEBINARS, AND INDIVIDUAL SITE VISITS, AND DELIVERED TO VALUE FIRST ILLINOIS MEMBERS' SITES PROVIDING AN AVERAGE OF 14% SAVINGS ACROSS ALL CATEGORIES.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Not present in the most recent drop.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
