Overview

Mission

The slomin family center is dedicated to improving the emotional and physical well-being of children and their families touched by autism spectrum disorders. Embracing excellence, integrity, collaboration, discovery and warmth in all we do.

What it reported doing in 2018

Pre-school and camp programs for children on the autism spectrum and their mainstream siblings. The preschool offers an inclusion classroom open to children ages 3-6 years. Inclusion means the class is a max of children diagnosed with autism or related disabilities and children who are "neuro-typical". The preschool classroom is a 1:4 ratio. The curriculum promotes academic and social growth. Therapies such as occupational and speech are incorporated into the program in order to work on communication, language, and gross motor skills. In addition, an aba therapist works with the teachers in the classroom in order to emphasize proper behavior goals and techniques for each child. The camp programs for both preschool and elementary age children continues to focus on social skills with an emphasis on having fun. During camp the preschool ratio remains the same and the elementary camp ratio is 1:6.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and the required major-donor schedule is missing or incomplete.
