Such supplements to earnings can create a work incentive for people on welfare. In the welfare system, states can "disregard" some proportion of earned income to enable working welfare recipients to keep more of their benefits. At least 35 states have expanded their earned income disregards beyond federal guidelines. TFP Publications Earned Income Disregards , M.

Extractions: In its general charitable purposes, a community foundation is much like a private foundation; its funds, however, are derived from many donors rather than a single source, as is usually the case with private foundations. Further, community foundations are usually classified under the tax code as public charities and therefore are subject to different rules and regulations than those which govern private foundations. (The site(s) listed below are launched in new browsers.) Community Foundation for Greater New Haven Founded in 1928, the Community Foundation for Greater New Haven manages charitable funds in its 20-town region of Connecticut. The mission is to "to strengthen and protect the community's varied assets; to increase respect, understanding and collaboration among its diverse stakeholders; and to enhance the quality of life for all." the foundation supports a wide range of interests through many distinct endowments funds including the areas of education, health, youth development, community development, regionalism, and capacity building. The foundation's latest annual report, current newsletter, and grant guidelines can be obtained by visiting the foundation's Web site. The Community Foundation of Southeastern Connecticut, located in New London, Connecticut, focuses its giving on support to cultural, educational, health, social services, and other charitable organizations. High priority goes to those programs that: "strengthen families; improve access to area resources, especially for underserved populations; encourage residents to participate in the cultural life of the community; and add to the general well being of the community." Additionally, the foundation provides numerous scholarships for college-bound students: a complete list of scholarships and applications, both in Adobe Acrobat format, can be downloaded from the foundation's Web site. Grant guidelines and limitations, a grant application in Adobe Acrobat, a listing of the Southern Connecticut towns served by the foundation, donor information, and contact information to request publications are all available online.

http://www.wellspring.org/ResAdolGirlsPage.html

Extractions: Residential Adolescent Girls Program Wellspring's Residential Adolescent Program for Girls ages 13 -18 is designed to treat a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems, including but not limited to, eating disorders attachment difficulties, traumatic stress disorder and substance abuse Family reunification is the primary goal of the residential adolescent program. To achieve this goal, Wellspring's family-style ambience provides daily living experiences of relationship with staff and peers as a way to address problems with parents and relationships. These problems are typically reenacted at Wellspring, both in the milieu and at school , but they can now be addressed with professional skill and understanding. The Wellspring "family" experience becomes an essential part of family therapy as parents and professionals work together in the learning and treatment process. Parents or Guardians have to be able and willing to be actively involved in the treatment process as indicated and recommended by the Treatment Team. While family therapy (including individual family sessions, multi-family groups and parents support groups) is the cornerstone of treatment, individual therapy, group therapies, and expressive therapies are closely coordinated to address key issues. Treatment plans are designed to meet individual needs within the general program.
