Mission and programs · 2024

• THE LARGEST PROGRAM PROVIDED BY LIGHTHOUSE OF PINELLAS IS THE INDEPENDENT LIVING PROGRAM. ITS CORE PURPOSE IS TO OFFER REHABILITATIVE TRAINING AND REFERRALS TO COMMUNITY RESOURCES TO ADULTS WHO HAVE LOST OR ARE PROGRESSIVELY LOSING THEIR VISION. THIS TRAINING GIVES THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE INDEPENDENTLY IN THEIR HOMES AND TO TRAVEL SAFELY IN THE COMMUNITY. AN ASSESSMENT IS COMPLETED TO DETERMINE THE NEED OF EACH INDIVIDUAL BY A TRAINED CASE MANAGER. THIS ASSESSMENT DETERMINES THE REHABILITATIVE TRAINING SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED.

• THE SECOND LARGEST PROGRAM OFFERED BY LIGHTHOUSE OF PINELLAS IS THE VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM. WHEN BLINDNESS OR VISUAL IMPAIRMENT OCCURS IN THE LIFE OF A PERSON WHO HAS PREVIOUSLY HAD A CAREER, NOT ONLY MAY A SERIOUS FINANCIAL HARDSHIP OCCUR, BUT DEPRESSION AND A LOSS OF SELF-ESTEEM AND SELF-WORTH ARE ALSO VERY LIKELY WITH SUCH A LIFE-CHANGING EVENT. OUR VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM PROVIDES SERVICES TO HELP EACH PERSON ACHIEVE THEIR AGREED UPON EMPLOYMENT GOALS. SERVICES TO ACCOMPLISH THIS ARE INDIVIDUAL ASSESSMENTS, JOB READINESS TRAINING, ORIENTATION AND MOBILITY TRAINING, COMMUNICATION SKILLS TRAINING, USE OF ASSISTIVE COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY, TRAINING IN ADAPTIVE TECHNIQUES FOR HEALTHY AND INDEPENDENT DAILY LIVING, AS WELL AS ADJUSTMENT TO VISION LOSS COUNSELING. (CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O)THIS TRAINING IS PROVIDED AT THE CENTER AND IN THE COMMUNITY. THIS FISCAL YEAR, 85 PEOPLE RECEIVED SERVICES THAT ASSISTED THEM TOWARDS ACHIEVING THEIR EMPLOYMENT GOALS

  Expenses $404,461

• THE THIRD LARGEST PROGRAM OFFERED BY LIGHTHOUSE OF PINELLAS IS THE EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAM WHICH SERVES CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES FROM BIRTH TO 6 YEARS OF AGE WHO ARE BLIND OR VISUALLY IMPAIRED. FOR MOST CHILDREN, 90% OF THEIR LEARNING COMES FROM VISION. A CHILD WHO IS BLIND OR VISUALLY IMPAIRED MUST LEARN ABOUT THE WORLD IN OTHER WAYS. OUR COMPREHENSIVE EARLY INTERVENTION SERVICES FOR INFANTS AND YOUNG CHILDREN HELP THEM LEARN TO WALK, FEED AND DRESS THEMSELVES, COMMUNICATE AND SOCIALIZE WITH OTHERS, AND GAIN A HEAD START ON A LIFE OF INDEPENDENCE. THE PROGRAM ALSO TEACHES THE CHILD'S FAMILY TO REINFORCE THIS LEARNING AT HOME. (CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O)THE GOAL OF THE PROGRAM IS TO DEVELOP EACH CHILD'S ABILITY TO ENTER SCHOOL WITH SKILLS EQUAL TO THEIR SAME-AGE PEERS AND TO REDUCE ANY DEVELOPMENTAL GAPS THAT MAY EXIST TO THE GREATEST EXTENT POSSIBLE. CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES MAY PARTICIPATE IN THE EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAM UNTIL THE CHILD HAS ACHIEVED THEIR HIGHEST LEVEL OF FUNCTIONING OR UNTIL THE CHILD REACHES THE AGE OF 6 YEARS. THIS FISCAL YEAR 105 CHILDREN AND FAMILY MEMBERS WERE SERVED.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.

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.
