Governance Explanations
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7A
“The process has not changed from the prior year.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B
“The finance committee of the board of directors is the delegated authority in charge of review and approval of the form 990. Committee members are sent a draft copy of the 990 prior to filing, via the most convenient means of delivery (i.e. Email, fax). All committee members will review the 990 for accuracy and completion. Committee members will meet to discuss any questions and/or changes. Upon completion of the review, committee members will approve/disapprove the 990 and communicate approval and/or concerns to management.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C
“Conflict of interest members of the board of directors are expected to reveal any personal, family, or business interests that they have, that, by creating a divided loyalty, could influence their judgment and hence the wisdom of decisions. A conflict of interest exists wherever an individual can benefit, disproportinally from others, directly or indirectly, from access to information or from a decision over which they might have influence, or where someone might reasonably perceive there to be such a benefit or influence. Examples of possible conflict of interest situations with respect to the foundation include a board member has a personal or business relationship with the foundation as a supplier of goods or services or as a landlord or tenant. A board member or his of her immediate family stands to gain from a transaction involving the foundation. A board member has a personal financial relationship with a client or vendor of the foundation. The foundation is employing someone who is directly related to a board member or other staff member. Conflicts of interest real and perceived are unvoidable and should not prevent an individual from serving as a direct or staff member unless the extent of the interest is so significant that the potential for divided loyalty is present in a large number of situations.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15
“The process has not changed from the prior year.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19
“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”

Supplemental Narrative
Additional Explanations
FORM 990, PART XI, LINE 9:
“Loss from subsidiaries -265,712.”
FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:
“The process for oversight of the financial statement audit has not changed from the prior year.”
Financial Statement Notes
PART X, LINE 2:
“The organizations are exempt from income taxes under the applicable sections of the internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) for emerge center and section 501(c)(3) and section 509(a)(3) for emerge foundation. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, the organizations may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the year ended december 31, 2024. The organizations file income tax returns in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction. With few exceptions, the organizations are no longer subject to federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2021. Any interest and penalties assessed by income tax authorities are not significant and are included in general and administrative expenses in these financial statements as applicable.”

REFERRING PEDIATRICIANS RECEIVE ASSESSMENT RESULTS, AND CAN RECEIVE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION AS REQUESTED PERTAINING TO THERAPY. FAMILY AND TEACHER INPUT IS CRUCIAL TO DEVELOPING TREATMENT PLANS BASED UPON THE CHILD'S STRENGTHS AND NEEDS. OUR PSYCHOLOGISTS CAREFULLY DEVELOP TREATMENT PLANS THAT COINCIDE WITH BEHAVIORAL FUNCTIONS WHILE REMAINING PRACTICAL FOR CAREGIVERS TO IMPLEMENT. ONCE A TREATMENT PLAN IS FORMULATED, A FUNCTIONAL, ASSESSMENT-DRIVEN INTERVENTION MAY BE IMPLEMENTED WHILE CONTINUING TO COLLECT DATA AND MONITOR PROGRESS. TEACHERS, THERAPISTS, AND OTHER CAREGIVERS MAY BE ASKED TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION DURING THE COURSE OF TREATMENT OR AT DISCHARGE.

THUS, WE ARE ABLE TO OFFER MORE ROBUST TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR FAMILIES. OUR CENTER PROVIDES ADDITIONAL VALUE BECAUSE WE SPECIFICALLY TREAT CHILDREN WITH DEVELOPMENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL DISORDERS AND THEIR FAMILIES.WHAT WE CAN PROVIDE TO A CHILD THAT OTHER PROGRAMS GENERALLY CANNOT IS THE BLENDING OF CHILD PSYCHOLOGY WITH OTHER DEVELOPMENTAL AND THERAPEUTIC SERVICES. IT IS OUR EXPERIENCE THAT CHILDREN WITH LANGUAGE AND DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS ALSO FREQUENTLY HAVE BEHAVIORAL DIFFICULTIES STEMMING FROM THEIR INABILITY TO COMMUNICATE. THIS IS WHY THE EMERGE CENTER OFFERS PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS, BEHAVIOR THERAPY, COUNSELING, AND CONSULTING SERVICES WHICH ALLOWS US TO "TREAT THE WHOLE CHILD" MORE COMPLETELY AND PROVIDE A TRUE CONTINUITY OF CARE HERE IN BATON ROUGE. |
