THE ORGANIZATION WAS FOUNDED IN 1920 TO ENSURE THAT CHILDREN WERE CARED FOR IN FAMILIES, RATHER THAN IN ORPHANAGES, WHERE OUR FOUNDERS BELIEVED THEY WERE MOST LIKELY TO GET THE LOVE AND SUPPORT THEY NEEDED. TODAY WE HOLD FAST TO THAT BELIEF, AND CONTINUE THE WORK BY MOBILIZING THE COMMUNITY AND PROVIDING TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE. 8 8 17 0 0 0 199744 270584 1605173 1297990 32234 18690 8472 9717 1845623 1596981 0 0 0 0 851713 851861 0 0 88827 1068715 1039788 1920428 1891649 -74805 -294668 1101022 2213058 152445 1416721 948577 796337 X FOUNDED IN 1920 BY MCCORMICK SPICE COMPANY'S ENTREPRENEUR WILLOUGHBY MCCORMICK, BUILDING FAMILIES FOR CHILDREN (BFC), FORMERLY BAPTIST FAMILY & CHILDREN'S SERVICES, EXISTS TO PROVIDE A SAFE, NURTURING FAMILY FOR EVERY CHILD AND A SUPPORTIVE, THRIVING COMMUNITY FOR EVERY FAMILY. OUR MISSION IS TO SHARE THE LOVE OF CHRIST BY HELPING MARYLAND'S MOST VULNERABLE CHILDREN THRIVE IN FAMILIES. 0 0 1162718 1277204 THE CHOSEN PROGRAM PROVIDES FAMILY-BASED TREATMENT FOSTER CARE (TFC) FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH WHO HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM THEIR HOMES BY A LOCAL DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES (DSS). DUE TO CHILDHOOD TRAUMA THEY REQUIRE MORE THAN THE BASIC CARE, SUPPORT, LOVE AND NURTURING THAT REGULAR FOSTER CARE PROVIDES. OUR APPROACH IS ATTACHMENT-BASED AND TRAUMA INFORMED AND IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE COMPLEX NEEDS OF VULNERABLE CHILDREN. CHOSEN STAFF TRAINS AND PROVIDES WEEKLY IN-HOME SUPPORT TO TREATMENT FOSTER PARENTS SO THEY CAN PROVIDE CARE THAT HELPS THE YOUTH HEAL FROM TRAUMA AND TEACHES NEW COPING SKILLS. THE HOPEFUL OUTCOME IS THAT THE CHILDREN REMAIN STABLE IN THEIR FOSTER FAMILY AND EVENTUALLY MEET THEIR PERMANENCY GOAL. 257492 SAFE FAMILIES FOR CHILDREN MOBILIZES A NETWORK OF COMPASSIONATE VOLUNTEERS TO WRAP AROUND FAMILIES FACING CRISIS. WHILE SOME VOLUNTEERS TEMPORARILY PROVIDE HOUSING FOR CHILDREN, OTHERS STEP IN TO MENTOR PARENTS AND HELP THEM ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS. THESE SUPPORTIVE RELATIONSHIPS PROVIDE THE SAFETY NET MANY VULNERABLE FAMILIES NEED TO KEEP CHILDREN OUT OF THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM AND ACHIEVE LONG-TERM STABILITY. MANY FAMILIES TODAY ARE ISOLATED, THEY MAY NOT HAVE ANYONE TO CALL WHEN DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES ARISE, LEAVING THEM VULNERABLE. THIS IS WHERE SAFE FAMILIES CAN STEP IN. VOLUNTEERS PROVIDE A SAFE, NURTURING HOME FOR CHILDREN, ALLOWING PARENTS TO FOCUS ON CRISIS SITUATIONS WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT LOSING PARENTAL CUSTODY, WHILE PROVIDING AN EXTRA LAYER OF SUPPORT AS PARENTS WORK TOWARDS STABILITY. 33452 20786 IN OUR THERAPEUTIC FAMILY SERVICES PROGRAM, THERAPISTS WORK WITH CHILDREN OF ALL AGES AND THEIR CAREGIVERS TO ADDRESS EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL DIFFICULTIES RESULTING FROM TRAUMA. WE HELP FAMILIES OF ALL TYPES (ADOPTIVE, FOSTER, AND BIOLOGICAL) TO CONNECT, HEAL, AND THRIVE TOGETHER. CHILDHOOD TRAUMA MAKES A LASTING IMPACT ON THE BRAIN, HINDERING A CHILD'S ABILITY TO LEARN, GROW, AND FORM HEALTHY ATTACHMENTS WITH OTHERS. OUR THERAPIST'S APPROACH IS BASED ON THE PRINCIPLES OF TRUST-BASED RELATIONAL INTERVENTION (TBRI), A HOLISTIC, ATTACHMENT-BASED, TRAUMA-INFORMED INTERVENTION DESIGNED TO MEET THE COMPLEX NEEDS OF VULNERABLE CHILDREN. 1453662 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 10 0 1 17 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 8 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 MD X X THE ORGANIZATION 4108721050 7142 COLUMBIA GATEWAY DR SUITE 170 COLUMBIA MD 21046 STEVEN BURNETT PRESIDENT 2.00 X X 0 0 0 JEFF SHUSTERMAN VICE PRESIDENT 2.00 X 0 0 0 STEW EIDEL TREASURER/SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 MICHELLER GIBBS BOARD OF TRUSTEES 2.00 X 0 0 0 TRINA HARVEY BOARD OF TRUSTEES 2.00 X 0 0 0 DARLA TRIGGER BOARD OF TRUSTEES 2.00 X 0 0 0 SHANE VALENSTEIN BOARD OF TRUSTEES 2.00 X 0 0 0 TRICIA SACKLES EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 98657 0 7520 98657 0 7520 0 0 0 0 0 270584 270584 PURCHASE OF CARE 624100 1277204 1277204 THERAPEUTIC FAMILY SER 624100 20786 20786 1297990 18690 18690 8400 0 8400 8400 8400 OTHER INCOME 900099 1317 1317 1317 1596981 1297990 0 28407 106177 86190 14398 5589 597602 441663 109738 46201 8646 8646 43645 30854 9133 3658 95791 56597 29258 9936 16199 9631 6411 157 136539 81175 54037 1327 16715 11029 5657 29 48194 21464 21801 4929 24681 5911 18770 162913 125322 27082 10509 77455 63277 10529 3649 4754 3460 1294 15274 9434 5049 791 35929 23594 10357 1978 TFC - BOARD PAYMENTS 211095 211095 TFC - DIFFICULTY OF CAR 196330 196330 DIRECT CLIENT COSTS AND 19053 19053 TFC - RESPITE CARE 7710 7710 66947 41227 25646 74 1891649 1453662 349160 88827 138857 63951 112453 114051 2751 119 62792 10832 81050 29171 20275 51879 734166 767623 29728 1204603 1101022 2213058 120550 123337 2167 29728 1293384 152445 1416721 X 843066 681411 105511 114926 948577 796337 1101022 2213058 -294668 52547 97660 -7779 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 244818 463704 268369 199744 368244 1544879 1960048 1918662 1729222 1605173 1297990 8511095 2204866 2382366 1997591 1804917 1666234 10055974 0 0 0 10055974 24988 28163 18092 32234 27090 130567 24988 28163 18092 32234 27090 130567 2936 9 72 1317 4334 2232790 2410529 2015692 1837223 1694641 10190875 0.98680 0.98750 0.01280 0.01210 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 152205 37316 189521 127263 24942 152205 146237 -18974 127263 122890 23347 146237 113554 9336 122890 0.47000 0.53000 0 0 3654 3654 77396 29171 48225 51879 ROU ASSET - OPERATING 1194229 ROU ASSET - FINANCING 10374 1204603 LEASE LIABILITY - OFFICE SPACE 1279254 LEASE LIABILITY - COPIER 14130 1293384 X 1747188 52547 97660 150207 1596981 0 1596981 1891649 0 1891649 0 1891649 PART X, LINE 2: BUILDING FAMILIES IS EXEMPT FROM THE PAYMENT OF INCOME TAXES ON INCOME OTHER THAN NET UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.
