THROUGH THE HIGH OUTCOMES ACHIEVED BY THE DELIVERY OF THESE SERVICES, WE HOPE TO EDUCATE PROFESSIONALS AND PARENTS ACROSS BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SETTINGS REGARDING THE REMARKABLE VALUE OF SPECIALIZED, INTENSIVE CLINICAL THERAPIES FOR CHILDREN WITH SERIOUS DIAGNOSES SUCH AS AUTISM, HEARING IMPAIRMENTS, APHASIA, APRAXIA, DOWNS SYNDROME, DYSLEXIA, CEREBRAL PALSY OR OTHER CONDITIONS THAT RESULT IN SEVERE LANGUAGE DISORDERS. Form 990, Part III, Line 4a FIRST ACCOMPLISHMENT In addition to the delivery of intensive, medical speech, occupational, physical and behavioral therapies to 161 pediatric patients with severe communicative, motor, behavioral, sensory and social disabilities, we also provided direct 11 specialized special educational instruction for less than the cost weekly daycare for our families. Not only do deductibles and co-pays continue to present obstacles to treatment, the high costs of inflation have seriously challenged our young parents. Without significant charitble assistance, their children would simply be unable to attend. Once again, this year more families from every diverse racial, cultural, economic and religious demographic discover our special mission of outstanding services provided at affordable prices. In 2023, we again served an increasing number of children with little or no ability to pay deductibles, co-pays or tuition. In 2023, our Gifts for Erin and Matching Dollar scholarship gifts provided over 1,113,212 in charitable medical therapies and charitable special educational services. On top of that, Erin is Hope Foundation expanded staff support to include an on-site nursery for employee infants. Additional Accomplishment In 2023, Erin is Hope Foundation again found itself in a survival mode. Because of a critical illness, the foundation was suddenly operating without its executive director for several weeks. The entire staff and families seamlessly adjusted for needed changes and endured the crisis without a single bump. Charitable gifts exceeded 98,000 as our supporters stepped up to help in a difficult situation. Not only that, in July 2023, a neighborhood firework caused serious damage to our facility, and resulted in considerable repairs and interruptions to the usual routine. Once again, staff, familites and our young patients responded with flexibility and support that brought us through a devastating crisis and helped us emerge stronger and better than before Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.
