THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION IS TO HELP FAMILIES ACHIEVE SAFETY, STABILITY, AND LONG-TERM SELF-SUFFICIENCY. AS FORT WAYNE'S ONLY EMERGENCY SHELTER DEDICATED EXCLUSIVELY TO HOMELESS FAMILIES, THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES A CONTINUUM OF SERVICES DESIGNED TO PREVENT AND RESOLVE HOMELESSNESS AMONG HOUSEHOLDS WITH CHILDREN. ITS CORE PROGRAM IS A 45-DAY FAMILY EMERGENCY SHELTER, WHICH OFFERS PRIVATE ACCOMMODATION, MEALS, AND INTENSIVE, TRAUMA-INFORMED CASE MANAGEMENT. FAMILIES WORK WITH STAFF TO DEVELOP INDIVIDUALIZED HOUSING PLANS, ADDRESS BARRIERS SUCH AS INCOME INSTABILITY, EMPLOYMENT CHALLENGES, TRANSPORTATION, AND CHILDCARE NEEDS, AND SECURE STABILE HOUSING. DUE TO SUSTAINED DEMAND AND CONSISTENT FULL CAPACITY IN OUR TEN ROOM 45-DAY PROGRAM, THE ORGANIZATION EXPANDED SERVICES IN 2025 BY CONVERTING TWO ROOMS INTO AN IMMEDIATE-OVERNIGHT SHELTER PROGRAM. THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES SHORT- TERM, 12-HOUR EMERGENCY ACCOMMODATION FOR FAMILIES IN CRISIS, ENSURING SAFE SHELTER WHILE THEY AWAIT PLACEMENT IN THE 45-DAY PROGRAM. IN ITS INITIAL MONTHS OF OPERATION, THE OVERNIGHT PROGRAM SERVED MORE THAN 200 FAMILIES, DEMONSTRATING SIGNIFICANT COMMUNITY NEED AND REDUCING DELAYS IN ACCESS TO SHELTER. TO FURTHER EXPAND CAPACITY, THE ORGANIZATION LAUNCHED A CAPITAL CAMPAIGN IN LATE 2025 TO RENOVATE UNDERUTILIZED ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE SPACE INTO A DEDICATED OVERNIGHT SHELTER FACILITY. PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS INCLUDE SEVEN PRIVATE FAMILY ROOMS WITH OVERFLOW CAPACITY, AN ADA-ACCESSIBLE RESTROOM, AND ON-SITE LAUNDRY FACILITIES. THIS EXPANSION IS DESIGNED TO ELIMINATE WAIT TIMES, INCREASE ACCESS TO SAFE SHELTER, AND CREATE A MORE EFFICIENT PATHWAY INTO LONGER-TERM PROGRAMMING. IN ADDITION TO SHELTER SERVICES, THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES AN EVICTION INTERVENTION PREVENTION PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES HOUSING STABILIZATION ASSISTANCE TO FAMILIES AT RISK OF LOSING HOUSING. SERVICES INCLUDE SHORT- TERM FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, LANDLORD MEDIATION, AND REFERRALS TO COMMUNITY- BASED RESOURCES. FAMILIES ACROSS ALL PROGRAMS ARE CONNECTED TO HEALTHCARE, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES, FOOD ASSISTANCE, AND OTHER SUPPORTS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO OVERALL WELL-BEING. PROGRAM EFFECTIVENESS IS MEASURED THROUGH ONGOING DATA COLLECTION AND CASE MANAGEMENT DOCUMENTATION. QUANTITATIVE INDICATORS INCLUDE THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES SERVED, SHELTER UTILIZATION RATES, LENGTH OF STAY, AND THE PERCENTAGE OF FAMILIES EXITING TO STABLE HOUSING. WITHIN THE 45-DAY PROGRAM, PROGRESS IS ASSESSED USING A HOUSING STABILITY MATRIX COMPLETED AT ENTRY AND EXIT, WITH A GOAL THAT FAMILIES DEMONSTRATE MEASURABLE IMPROVEMENT IN AREAS SUCH AS INCOME, EMPLOYMENT, AND HOUSING. INDIVIDUALIZED SERVICE PLANS FURTHER TRACK PROGRESS TOWARD GOALS SUCH AS SECURING EMPLOYMENT, OBTAINING BENEFITS, AND DEVELOPING SUSTAINABLE HOUSEHOLD BUDGETS. THE OVERNIGHT SHELTER PROGRAM IS EVALUATED THROUGH ACCESS AND UTILIZATION METRICS, INCLUDING NIGHTLY OCCUPANCY ENSURING TIMELY ACCESS TO EMERGENCY SHELTER FOR FAMILIES IN CRISIS. THE EVICTION INTERVENTION PROGRAM, IN WHICH STAFF ATTEND ALL EVICTION HEARINGS IN ALLEN COUNTY SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IS EVALUATED BASED ON THE PERCENTAGE OF CASES THAT ARE ULTIMATELY DISMISSED. QUALITATIVE OUTCOMES INCLUDE IMPROVED FAMILY STABILITY AND WELL-BEING. FAMILIES REPORT REDUCED STRESS AND INCREASED SAFETY UPON ENTERING SHELTER. CHILDREN BENEFIT FROM MAINTAINING SCHOOL ATTENDANCE AND DAILY ROUTINES, WHILE PARENTS GAIN CONFIDENCE AND SKILLS THROUGH CASE MANAGEMENT SUPPORT. FAMILIES REMAIN INTACT DURING PERIODS OF CRISIS AND FREQUENTLY REPORT INCREASED SELF-SUFFICIENCY, RESILIENCE, AND CONNECTION TO COMMUNITY RESOURCES UPON PROGRAM COMPLETION.

THE NEW BYLAWS REPRESENT A SUBSTANTIAL MODERNIZATION AND RESTRUCTURING OF THE ORGANIZATION'S GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK. THE REVISED DOCUMENT FORMALLY ADOPTS THE ORGANIZATION'S "DOING BUSINESS AS" NAME, "JUST NEIGHBORS INTERFAITH HOMELESS NETWORK,- AND ADDS A NEW ARTICLE DEFINING THE ORGANIZATION'S NAME, NONPROFIT STATUS UNDER INDIANA LAW, AND CHARITABLE PURPOSES. GOVERNANCE TERMINOLOGY WAS ALSO UPDATED THROUGHOUT, REPLACING THE "BOARD OF TRUSTEES" WITH THE "BOARD OF AMBASSADORS." IN ADDITION, THE MAXIMUM BOARD SIZE WAS REDUCED FROM 30 MEMBERS TO 15 MEMBERS TO CREATE A MORE STREAMLINED GOVERNING BODY. THE REVISED BYLAWS SIMPLIFY BOARD SERVICE BY ALLOWING AMBASSADORS TO CONTINUE SERVING UNTIL RESIGNATION OR REMOVAL RATHER THAN SERVING RENEWABLE THREE-YEAR TERMS. THE NEW BYLAWS ALSO SHIFT THE BOARD'S ROLE TOWARD STRATEGIC OVERSIGHT AND FIDUCIARY GOVERNANCE WHILE DELEGATING MORE OPERATIONAL RESPONSIBILITY TO THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITIES ARE MORE CLEARLY DEFINED, INCLUDING RESPONSIBILITY FOR STAFFING AND ORGANIZATIONAL OVERSIGHT. THE NEW BYLAWS MODERNIZE MEETING AND VOTING PROCEDURES BY EXPRESSLY PERMITTING PARTICIPATION THROUGH TELEPHONE OR VIDEO CONFERENCE, ELECTRONIC VOTING BY EMAIL, AND PROXY VOTING. THE PRIOR BYLAWS CONTAINED EXTENSIVE PROVISIONS ESTABLISHING STANDING COMMITTEES SUCH AS EXECUTIVE, FINANCE, DEVELOPMENT, MARKETING, AND OPERATIONS COMMITTEES, ALONG WITH DETAILED COMMITTEE DUTIES. THOSE PROVISIONS WERE REMOVED IN FAVOR OF A MORE FLEXIBLE COMMITTEE STRUCTURE. OFFICER RESPONSIBILITIES, PARTICULARLY THOSE OF THE SECRETARY AND TREASURER, WERE ALSO EXPANDED AND CLARIFIED TO BETTER ALIGN WITH CURRENT NONPROFIT GOVERNANCE PRACTICES. ADDITIONALLY, THE REVISED BYLAWS REMOVE THE SEPARATE ADVISORY BOARD PROVISIONS AND THE ARTICLE CONCERNING AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION. TWO IMPORTANT GOVERNANCE POLICIES WERE ADDED: A FORMAL NON- DISCRIMINATORY POLICY AND A CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY THAT INCLUDES DISCLOSURE, CONFIDENTIALITY, AND ENFORCEMENT PROVISIONS. FINALLY, THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS WERE LARGELY RETAINED BUT UPDATED THROUGHOUT TO REFLECT THE NEW TERMINOLOGY AND ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE.

WHILE INTERFAITH HOSPITALITY NETWORK FOCUSES ON COMPARABLE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS IN OUR AREA TO BENCHMARK PAY, WE ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT THE MARKET FOR EXECUTIVE TALENT MAY BE BROADER THAN THIS GROUP. MARKET INFORMATION FROM TWO ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION SURVEYS MAY BE USED AS A SUPPLEMENT. IN ADDITION, INTERFAITH HOSPITALITY NETWORK MAY ALSO COLLECT OTHER PUBLISHED SURVEY DATA, WHEN APPROPRIATE, FOR FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS FOR SPECIFIC FUNCTIONAL COMPETENCIES SUCH AS FINANCE AND HUMAN RESOURCES. TOGETHER WITH DATA FROM THE COMPARABLE LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS, DATA FROM THESE MARKET SEGMENTS ARE USED TO FORM A "MARKET COMPOSITE" TO ASSESS THE COMPETITIVENESS OF COMPENSATION. IN GENERAL, INTERFAITH HOSPITALITY NETWORK POSITIONS TOTAL COMPENSATION, INCLUDING BENEFITS, AT THE MEDIAN OF THE MARKET. PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO BE FLEXIBLE SO THAT COMPENSATION CAN BE ABOVE OR BELOW THE MEDIAN BASED ON EXPERIENCE, PERFORMANCE, AND BUSINESS NEED TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN SPECIFIC TALENT.
