Mission and programs · 2024

• The HAY Center Foundation's support of the Education and Workforce programs fills the gaps where public contracts do not allow funding. Youth receive support (books and fees, tuition, training, uniforms) to work towards and accomplish their education and employment goals. Education: College Tours allow rising juniors/seniors to explore their post-secondary education options and allows for advanced planning ahead of graduation. College Bound Experience offers a simulated first-day-of-college interactive event for youth heading off to college as well as provides as volunteer opportunity for youth to build their resumes. Continued on Schedule OWorkforce: The HAY Center hosts a Summer Jobs Program, giving youth ages 16 through 20 the opportunity to participate in first-time employment and develop their soft skills with the support of a workforce team providing onsite case management. Job training and viable employment options are necessary for a youth's successful transition to independence. The Workforce Team works to identify and develop sustainable entry-level employment opportunities. Financial Management workshops are provided to all youth participating in The HAY Center's employment programs.

• The HAY Center Coaching Programs include Transition and Academic Coaching. The Transition Coaching program pairs trained volunteers with youth who are preparing to "age out" of the foster care system. The coach assists youth in exploring options for education, employment, and housing. The goal of the program is for coaches to be someone outside of the system who provides support and keeps the youth connected to The HAY Center's wraparound services. Academic Coaching focuses not only on subject matter tutoring services but also teaches youth executive functioning skills including time management, impression management, organizational skill and study skills. Youth participate in individual and group tutoring sessions, which are held either in person or virtually.

• The HAY Center Housing Continuum assists youth in finding and applying for safe, stable housing options that will aid them in meeting their educational, employment, and mental health needs and goals. In addition to The HAY Center's wraparound services, the youth participating in the Housing Continuum receive housing readiness, navigation, and case management services. The goal of the program is for youth to be prepared to obtain their own housing, live independently and achieve housing stability. Continued on Schedule Oo The Bridge Housing program provides youth with a rent-free place to live while they participate in intensive case management, wraparound services, and advanced life skills training. Youth work towards obtaining employment and/or training to gain marketable job skills while learning to live independently. o Housing Options: Housing vouchers through a public/private venture between The HAY Center, the HAY Center Foundation, and local housing authorities, youth apply for housing vouchers through the local housing authorities. During the application process, the youth receive housing readiness and navigation services to ensure they locate affordable housing that fits their budget and needs. o Rental/Utility Assistance: The HAY Center Foundation assists with the payment of deposits, first month's rent, utility assistance, and rental expenses. o The HAY Center Campus was developed through another public/private venture. The Campus consists of a housing and services complex specifically designed to meet the needs of transitioning youth. The Campus further expands housing options at a location where youth can conveniently receive HAY Center services and participate in experiential training opportunities that promote independent living skills.

• Youth Engagement and Enhanced Life Skills Workshops are centered around youth voice and provides youth the opportunity to interact with the HAY Center team outside of case management services as well as interacting with volunteers while learning much needed life skills. Enhanced life skills topics include financial literacy, job readiness, parenting, meal preparation, housing and other areas identified by our youth. Annual events include the following: o Thanksgiving Grab and Go: Youth stop by The HAY Center to pick up a holiday food bag, gift card and pie that can be used for their own holiday meals. Youth enjoy lunch, snacks, and pie as they wait for their food bags to be made per their requests. This is a great time for them to visit with The HAY Center team. o Holiday Event, held in December, is an opportunity for youth and their family of choice to celebrate the holidays at this fun-filled event. It provides youth the opportunity to connect with community members outside of the foster care system. The HAY Center and team step in to ensure that our youth enjoy this special time of the year. o Prom Readiness Event helps high school students in foster care prepare for their prom by providing an inventory of formal wear and accessories that the youth can select from free of charge. Matched with volunteer personal shoppers, youth are mentored through their shopping experience while learning life skills needed when attending a special event. o Graduation Event celebrates our youth's academic success. Youth are celebrated and provided gifts of household and education necessities to promote independent living success and prepare them for their next set of goals. o College Preparation Events - A series of activities and events to assist youth with college participation. During the summer, college information sessions and college tours along with information and training is provided to prepare youth for a successful transition to college or university.

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. 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.
