Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Providing help, hope, and healing through behavioral, educational, and therapeutic interventions which enhance social functioning and well-being, ensure safety, and work to achieve positive permanency for children and families in our community.

  • Our psychiatric residential treatment facility (PRTF): care in our PRTF setting is required when the youth's medical condition, safety, or health would be significantly and directly threatened if care was provided in a less intensive setting. This program opened in May 2010 and is provided on our 110-acre campus. We take a holistic approach to treatment; we believe that youth must continue to engage in normal developmental activities and enrichment along with the therapeutic interventions provided. Education services, medical care, and a healthy nutrition program are included during their placement with us. Nursing staff, licensed therapists, behavior interventionists, and direct care staff are on staff 24 hours a day. The primary goal of this program is to prepare the youth and (Continued Sch. O)family for his return to home and community. The youth's underlying behavioral problems must be addressed in order to accomplish this goal, and therapeutic interventions must target the behaviors and symptoms that have limited the youth's successes. Service planning and programming, including therapeutic strategies and provision of active treatment are focused on teaching youth how to successfully function in the context of the setting to which they will be returning- their home. Transitions from PRTF must be designed to provide the youth's families with sufficient referrals and resources to feel confident about meeting the challenges at home. These resources should include home and community-based supports (formal and informal) that can adequately address their and their child's needs, including any familial and community safety supports. This program is s accredited by COA, a national accrediting entity. We provide this service to 12 boys ages 6-16. We completed a building renovation and have petitioned the state for a license to serve four additional youth in this program. Children in SCDSS custody and those who are in the custody of family member or fictive kin receive treatment in this program. Charleston County School District provides educational services. SC Medicaid is the only insurer for this program

  • Our qualified residential treatment program (QRTP): our group home program has operated since Windwood opened its doors in 1985. A QRTP is new enhanced form of group care; it is a high-quality treatment setting. This program focuses its services on children who are currently in our state's child welfare custody. This is an environment that is designed to be treatment-focused and short term; that provides access to 24-hour nursing and clinical staff; that provides at least six-months of family focused aftercare. This program is accredited by COA, a national accrediting entity. As part of the initial 30-day assessment our clinical team is required to convene a meeting of family members and others with significant relationships with the child in order to gain (continued Sch. O)their perspective on the needs of the child and the appropriateness of the placement in a QRTP. A review of the youth's placement by the court must occur by day 60. Reunification with the youth's family is priority one. This program facilitates family participation in the child's treatment program (if in the child's best interest); it facilitates family outreach, documents how this outreach is made, and maintains contact information for any known birth family and fictive kin of the child; and documents how the child's family is integrated into the child's treatment, including post discharge, and how sibling connections are maintained. We provide this service to ten boys ages 6-16.

  • Family Resource Connection and Preservation Services (FRCPS) is a community-based, multi-faceted family program designed to assist with the needs of children, youth, and caregivers. The overarching goal of the program is to prevent out-of-home placement and the need for further child welfare system involvement. FRCPS operates within a strengths-based, family-centered perspective and combines individualized family interventions with service management activities. FRCPS identifies and ensures that all needs are addressed so that the family has the best chance of success in maintaining safety, stability, and wellbeing. It has demonstrated efficacy in assisting caregivers with meeting the basic needs of their children and preventing neglect and abuse. (Continued on Sch. O)FRCPS services are provided by Family Resource Specialists. The Specialists' responsibilities extend beyond service management tasks. They provide support and referral services to family members in the home, school, and community. Staff work non-traditional hours, including evenings, weekends, and holidays to ensure that family schedules are accommodated.Because of Windwood Family Services, more than 5,000 local children have been able to stay with their families, instead of protective custody, over the past decade.

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.

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 13 October 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.
