What Special Kids Special Care Inc does

Mission

Elevating families' ability to support the well-being of their premature babies and babies who need special care by providing essential support services, parent education and education to healthcare and early childhood providers.Vision: Informed, Connected, and Thriving Children and Families

As stated on its FY2020 Form 990.

Program

Family Support ProgramsIn 2020, the Family Support Program (FSP) was expanded to include the NICU Home Discharge Follow-up Phone Support Pilot Program (NICU Home). Seventy families, with 80 infants, were referred for support services, equipment, or infant supplies through the FSP. These families included four sets of twins and two sets of triplets. Eighty-eight percent of the infants were premature, and all were followed through the NICU Home Program. Due to the COVID crisis and family needs related to their infant's medical complexity, we received an increase in respite care requests due to social-emotional support needs and the need for special infant equipment. Fewer grants were from public health nurses for lactation support, but more were received from the NICU staff. We received most of our grant funds on June 1, 2020, leaving six months to provide families grants. We were still able to provide financial support grants for 26 families and NICU Home follow-up support for 64 families. Some families who were followed through the NICU Home Program also received Family Support Grants when such a need was identified. The amounts of the 26 Family Support Grants we provided were…

1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 0% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Special Kids Special Care Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 100% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Special Kids Special Care Inc.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $21 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
