Overview
Mission
Provide rehabilitation, training, opportunities for personal and economic advancement, and employment services to people with severe disabilities and other barriers.
What it reported doing in 2024
Landmark services, inc. Assisted 44 individuals with significant disabilities in obtaining productive and valuable training and employment. This was accomplished primarily through federal contracts obtained under the abilityone program (formerly the javits-wanger-o'day program), a program with clear purpose to harness the abilities of people with severe disabilities. Sourceamerica (formerly nish) is a national nonprofit that uses the tremendous purchasing power of the united states government to partner with community nonprofit agencies, such as landmark, to provide training and to create jobs for a dedicated and highly qualified workforce - people with severe disabilities. Landmark's contracts involved janitorial and maintenance services at facilities owned by the federal government.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 80% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
