“The Organization provided a draft 990 to all board members and gave them a week to provide comments, if any.”

“Board reviews conflict of interest policy annually.”

“3i Housing of Maine conducted an analysis of the salaries for Executive Directors/CEO's of local nonprofits as reported by the Maine Association of Nonprofits. Comparable salary data was presented to the Board of Directors. Based on that data, the 3i HoME Board of Directors considered and voted on the compensation for the organization's founder and CEO.”

“1. 3i HoME, partnering with SeniorsPlus, completed a two-year innovation grant sponsored by the State of Maine OADS. The two-year pilot tested a new Assistive Technology Assessment process developed with the University of Pittsburgh and used to test an enhanced care coordination model where an Occupational Therapist administered the assessments to selected SeniorsPlus clients. The results showed weaknesses in the Medicaid Waiver 19 program. The results shared with the State of Maine showed the positive impact of providing a detailed technology assessment to people with disabilities ensuring that such individuals receive the appropriate assistive technologies, and are then properly trained in the use of such technologies to reduce the abandonment rate. 3i HoME intends to offer this type of assessment to residents of our communities when opened for occupancy. 2. During 2024, we began discussions and arrangements for a collaboration with the STEM Coliseum in Portland, ME whereby 3i HoME would locate its new Innovation Lab within the STEM Coliseum space and work collaboratively with the STEM program. This arrangement will introduce high school robotics teams to assistive technologies and real-world examples of technology solutions. The 3i HoME Innovation Lab will be used to test assistive technologies and devices prior to final selection and use in all 3i HoME housing solutions. The Innovation Lab is expected to be up and running by Q3 of 2025. 3. 3i HoME began its second housing solution called Caring Communities (TM) in 2024. These will be mixed income, single family home options, in neighborhoods of 25-40 homes that will follow the same design principles and include the same SMART assistive technologies as in Sturgeon Place, our low-income apartment complex. Building sites for our first, and possibly second, Caring Community (TM) locations were identified. Planning, community design, and resource identification work for our first location commenced in 2025, with targeted construction in 2026 pending final approvals by the end of 2025.”
