Mission

Special Needs Cobb, Inc. is committed to promoting opportunities for all people with developmental disabilities to live full, productive, self-determined lives of the highest quality by fostering local communities which embrace all people.

  • Supportive Group Home ProgramSpecial Needs Cobb sponsors and supports a network of 22 group homes in Cobb County, Georgia and one group home in Bartow County, Georgia that provide permanent supportive housing for adults with developmental disabilities, including homes developed under the HUD Section 811 program. The organization provides management, bookkeeping, and supervisory services to the homes; procures and administers property insurance, telephone and internet service, and repairs and maintenance on their behalf; and administers Cobb County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds used for accessibility renovations and capital improvements at the homes, including roofs, HVAC systems, flooring, and septic repairs, enabling residents to live safely in their community.

    Expenses $664,946 · Revenue $265,742

  • Community Education and OutreachSpecial Needs Cobb serves as an educational resource and voice for Cobb County residents with developmental disabilities and their families. Staff and volunteers participate annually in the Georgia Council on Developmental Disabilities' Disability Days at the State Capitol, educating state officials about the needs of Georgians with developmental disabilities, including access to Medicaid NOW and COMP waiver services and the needs of group home residents living with Prader-Willi syndrome. The organization offers Zoom seminars on the NOW COMP waiver for parents and guardians, and publishes frequent newsletters connecting families to service providers, community resources, and public meetings and hearings of importance.

    Expenses $50,862

  • Respite Care ProgramThrough its respite home, the organization provided short-term, overnight and weekend respite care for individuals with developmental disabilities, giving family caregivers temporary relief. During the year, the organization wound down the respite program and sold the respite home property, redirecting resources to its group home and community education programs.

    Expenses $24,810 · Revenue $3,930

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

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. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

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

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

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

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

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.
