Throughout the year, the program supported 16 residential mothers and 29 children with a comprehensive suite of holistic, wraparound services. These services included housing, temporary financial assistance, mentorship, case management, individual and group trauma-informed counseling and therapy, life skills training, educational and vocational guidance, Career Coaching, cultural enrichment, health and wellness classes, access to childcare, internet and essential resources, scholarship opportunities, and personalized financial management education. The impact of the program has been substantial, with participants making remarkable transitions from experiencing homelessness to achieving homeownership. Mothers have notably increased their income, which has enhanced their access to resources and financial stability. The educational initiatives within the program have also allowed mothers to advance in their careers by gaining necessary qualifications. Furthermore, the children of these participants benefited from on-site tutoring that not only improved their academic performance but also helped them develop emotional intelligence, with many achieving honor roll status after previously being behind standard academic benchmarks. Outreach - Holy Ground also provides services to those at-risk pregnant or parenting mothers who have a place to live, but who need a helping hand to survive and thrive. They are assisted with baby equipment and resources, and they also benefit from many of the services that our residential families do, with the exception of on-going financial support. In addition, our Outreach program provides emergency assistance to our mothers and children, as well as to young moms and kids in the larger community, on a limited basis. Since life invariably includes the unexpected, Holy Ground is there with temporary financial assistance when our young mothers encounter an unplanned financial snag, so that they do not fall deeper into debt. During the pandemic, we temporarily expanded our Outreach program in order to provide shelter to older moms and their children, many of whom lost their housing because of COVID-driven restrictions that impacted the organizations that were assisting them. Independent Living/Aftercare - A mother who has successfully progressed through our program, and who has developed the skills and the financial stability to step out on her own, is considered to have graduated from Holy Ground! With best wishes, love, and high hopes - and a party! - she moves from her apartment on one of our two campuses to an apartment of her own choosing. In doing so, she becomes part of our Aftercare program. She can still participate in all Holy Ground activities, and her family still receives case management, but she is monitored less frequently than when she was in our residential program. By this point, our young mom has learned how to manage her budget, maintain her own place, and balance her chosen vocation with the raising of her child, so that she can sustain a healthy, stable and productive lifestyle.' 536816 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 6 0 true 4 true false false false false true true false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 12 10 true false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true false false false X X X JOHN RUCONICH 5613555040 200 WEST 20TH STREET WEST PALM BEACH FL 33404 MICHELLE HAIMOWITZ Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 54088 54088 0 JANET KRANICH Treasurer 20.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 LONNIE MARTENS President 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 BELL CIRIUS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARIA MORRISON Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 CHRISTINE RAYMOND Vice President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 GINGER DONNELLY Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MONICA BANKS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 LANNY E BROWNE Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BARBARA RICHARDSON Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JANICE MOREY Secretary 30.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 JOHN RUCONICH Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 54088 54088 0 false false false 0 51528 596660 648188 HOUSING INCOME 624200 35421 35421 35421 0 0 0 0 0 51528 16098 35430 0 0 0 719039 35421 0 193345 193345 0 0 54088 54088 0 170397 161020 9377 0 4427 1610 2817 17173 16398 775 17789 17789 0 12800 12800 0 0 0 7230 7105 125 6924 69 6855 9001 4199 4802 4288 1862 2426 0 1600 1600 225 225 0 4439 28 4411 41022 1479 39543 0 67771 61672 6099 8831 7695 1136 Fundraising Expenses 15875 15875 Repairs & Maintenance 6631 6631 Miscellaneous 4345 300 4045 Bank Fees 841 -74 692 223 440 440 649482 536816 96568 16098 561392 577471 59870 84368 0 62025 0 0 0 0 0 2057975 266941 1858805 1791034 2074 0 0 0 0 13797 13797 2495938 2528695 31865 31799 13275 500000 450400 531865 495474 X 1964073 2033221 1964073 2033221 2495938 2528695 69557 -409 X false false false X 439185 752796 805267 610077 594188 3201513 0 0 439185 752796 805267 610077 594188 3201513 0 3201513 110 6073 82 338 6603 0 0 3208116 0.99790 0.99790 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 248000 248000 1429812 145891 1283921 200332 28276 172056 134035 92774 41261 45796 45796 1791034 false FUNDRAISING 51528 51528 777 525 14796 51528 51528 777 525 14796 16098 35430 false 0 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 Lanny Browne and Lonnie Martens are brother and sister Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Board of Directors reviews and approves prior to filing Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Monitored and reviewed annually.
