12. Project Specific Narrative: Provide a narrative description of the specific activities to be carried out with the requested funds. This should also include program objectives and key priorities for each specific jurisdiction.
Accessible, affordable housing is a major concern for people with disabilities in San Mateo County. A recent government report showed that San Mateo County ranks the least affordable housing market in the state with 12% of its residents able to purchase a home (SF is at 14%). The major emphasis in CID's housing efforts is our Housing Accessibility Program (HAM). Through the HAM Program, CID installs ramps, hand rails, grab bars, vertical lifts, and other modifications to make homes accessible. These modifications assist people with disabilities to remain at home or move back into their homes with greater independence, preventing the need to move into a skilled nursing or other institutional care facility. CID cooperates with cities and the County housing agencies in San Mateo County to increase then number of accessible and affordable housing.
Our key objective for all cities is to provide home modifications for extremely low, very low, and low income individuals with disabilities living in San Mateo County. Our priorities are to provide individuals with disabilities who have low resources the opportunity to become more independent in their homes through modifications that will keep them safe in their homes.

14. Timeline: Provide a brief timetable for project implementation and achievement of projected goals and how you plan to expend your funds in a timely manner by the end of the fiscal year.
Our Home Accessibility Modification (HAM) Program is continuously monitored throughout the fiscal year to ensure that projected timelines and milestones are met. In the beginning of each fiscal year, we evaluate the amount of funding that is allotted for each individual city and/or county to set monthly and quarterly milestones to be met regarding spending and the number of consumers to be served in order to reach our annual program goals.
After each monthly review, we evaluate progress toward our annual goal and which cities and/or county may be lacking in consumer requests. We will schedule outreaches in the target areas to increase community awareness of our organization and the HAM program. All our HAM project goals are set, achievable, measurable, time limited, and clearly stated on our work plans for each project.
15. Evaluation: Briefly describe how you will determine and measure the success of your program and whether or not program goals were met? If your program is currently receiving grant funds please describe accomplishments of goals to date.
CID provides quality satisfaction surveys for all Home Accessibility Modification Program clients served in order to monitor the services provided. We gauge our program success by our consumers' satisfaction, as well as reaching milestones set in the grant stipulations, including the number of individuals households served, the number and type of modifications provided, and diversity of consumers served. Increased independence is provided through installation of grab bars in a bathroom so that an individual can shower without care attendants or the installation of a ramp so that an individual can move in and out freely without assistance. These modifications essentially prevent individuals from having to be institutionalized and allows them to live more independently in their home and community.
16. Collaboration: Describe partnerships with other organizations/agencies, the nature of the partnership, and how it relates to the proposed project.
We currently collaborate with Home Safety Services and EVator as contractors who install the modifications.
Additionally, we work closely with various community organizations and local senior centers for outreach and referrals. A few of those partners include Samaritan House, The Villa Senior Living, Menlo Park, San Bruno, South San Francisco Senior Centers and the Mental Health Association. In 2022, CID is looking to enhance its partnership on the Institute on Aging to build a cross-referral partnership.
17. Impact: : Discuss any general trends and conditions that have affected or impacted your service levels or service populations. For New Applicants – describe what these funds would allow your agency to do that you may not be able to do now. For Continuing Applicants – describe how your program would be impacted without these funds.
Trends show that the number of older adults and individuals with disabilities in San Mateo County could increase by 30-40% by 2020 (Lisa et all). As an Independent Living Center serving individuals of all ages and disabilities, we are seeing an increase in the needs for our Home Accessibility Modification Program, as well as our AT Department (e.g Stairlifts). Without these funds, our HAM program would not be able to provide home accessibility modifications for as many residents as previously served, as other funding sources cover administration costs, but will not cover materials and supplies for the program. Without these funds there could be an increase of individuals will no longer be able to live independently in their homes, and consequently stripped of their independence. It could also potentially put a financial strain on the individuals family, county, and state due to high cost of institutionalization. As a Center, our HAM program is the most vital to the San Mateo County community and without these funds we would inevitably lose staff and lose one of our most valued and long standing programs in the community.
18. Project Beneficiaries/Quantifiable Measurement: Indicate the expected number of beneficiaries to be served by the program. For each response below please indicate both the number of households and number of individuals. Refer to the San Mateo County Income Limits. a.

b. Based on the percentages that you indicate your organization served describe your efforts to improve affirmative outreach to groups that may be underserved by your program and the result of your efforts:
Based on the statistical analysis of people served by CID and race and ethnicity average of each city (Redwood City, SSF, and City of San Mateo) continued outreach is needed to reach Asian and Hispanic communities in all 3 demographic areas. In 2022, CID will be employing more targeted social media outreach as well as community education on the HAM program.
21. Leveraging: Describe your fundraising efforts and additional sources of revenue for this project and your organization. Please state whether any of these fund sources are already committed and in what amount.
The majority of our administrative costs are funded by the Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) revenue.

3. Program Outcomes: a. Please describe the accomplishments of program goals for FY/21.
Our program helps individuals in the community through home modifications or using Assitive technology (e.g stair lifts). These efforts assist us to maintain people's independence and safety, while fostering community integration.
As a result of our program, going to the grocery story, getting to work or to a doctor's appointment becomes possible. One of the biggest impact we have through this program is helping individuals remain in their homes as well as return home form institutional settings by providing structural improvements that give power and independence back to the consumer.
b. In what ways has your program made a difference in the lives of the people you serve? Please provide at least one concrete example from the people served in FY/21:
Karin called in hopes of getting some help for her elderly parents. Mr. and Mrs. Boyle are in their 80s and they have very poor mobility. They needed a standard stair-lift to help them get up and down the long flight of stairs in their home. The stairs were a serious fall risk for the both of them. CID's HAM Program was able to provide a stair-lift and now Mr. and Mrs. Boyle can go up and down independently using the stair lift and continue to live independently in their home in San Mateo.

Section 2. Orientation to Independent Living and IL Centers
2.1 An Overview of Independent Living Philosophy
2.2 What is an Independent Living Center?
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 18
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 19
Section 2.1 An Overview of Independent Living Philosophy The independent living movement is founded on the belief that all people with disabilities, regardless of their disability, have a common history and struggle.
The movement seeks to extend the civil, human, social, and economic rights for people with disabilities. (See Appendix, "A Brief History of the Independent Living Movement," for more information about the movement.)
Independent living is based on a "social/independent living model of disability," rather than a "medical model." The problem lies in the environment, not the individual. People with disabilities don’t need to change; society and the environment need to change. Individuals with disabilities are not necessarily "sick." They do not always require help from medical professionals in their daily living.
Independent living is in direct contrast to the dependence created by institutionalization. In institutional settings, people with disabilities are segregated from the rest of the community, treated as sick or incapacitated, and dismissed as unproductive members of society. The independent living movement rejects these notions, and seeks to change community attitudes and beliefs which perpetuate such dependence.
Independent living philosophy emphasizes choice and consumer control. It creates opportunities for persons with disabilities to manage their own affairs, participate in day-to-day life in their communities, and make their own decisions.
A few guiding principles of independent living philosophy are:
x People with disabilities know their needs best.
x They can have their needs met most effectively by programs that advocate for the rights and needs of people with disabilities and provide a variety of supportive services.
x People with disabilities have the right to expect equal access to social, economic and political opportunities.
x They have the same aspirations as people who do not have disabilities. x People with disabilities must have the choice as to how they are integrated in their community.
x They are in the best position to direct, and control, disability-related programs.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 20
Section 2.2 What is an Independent Living Center?
Independent Living Centers (ILCs) are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations run and controlled by persons with disabilities. ILCs are non-residential, communitybased centers where people with disabilities can receive assistance with a variety of daily living issues. They learn the skills they need to take control of their lives from people who have had similar experiences living with a disability.
Independent living services maximize a person's ability to live in a selfdetermined way in an environment of her/his own choosing. ILCs serve people with all types of disabilities.
The federal government requires that more than 50% of the staff and board of an ILC must be people with disabilities.
ILCs are founded on the principle of peer support. The example of a peer, someone who has been in a similar situation, can be more powerful than a nondisabled professional's interventions to assist in analyzing one’s situation, assuming responsibility for one’s life, and developing coping strategies. With peer support, all of us, including persons with extensive physical, emotional or developmental disabilities, can learn to take more initiative and control over our lives. For example, peer support is used in Independent Living Skills classes, where people living with their families or in institutions learn how to run their everyday lives, in preparation for living on their own.
The following description of ILCs is taken, with small modifications, from the California Department of Rehabilitation web site, c. 2013.
The 28 independent living centers in California offer five core services mandated by the Federal Government in the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, Title VII, Chapter 1. California added two additional core services, Personal Assistance Services and Housing. These cores service are listed below. x Information and Referrals - ILCs provides assistance in answering disabilityrelated questions. x Advocacy - There are two types of advocacy: systems and individual.
Systems advocacy attempts to change laws and attitudes surrounding disability. Individual, or personal, advocacy is a type of problem-solving CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 21
designed to protect personal and legal rights and ensure a dignified existence.
x Independent Living Skills - Independent living skills consists of gaining instruction and mastery in the following areas: health and safety, community resources, meal planning and nutrition, self-advocacy, sexual awareness, personal assistant management, household management, recreation and leisure, and money management. Integration and full participation of individuals with disabilities into the mainstream of society is the desired outcome.
x Assistive Technology - Assistive Technology (AT) assists persons with disabilities to live and work as independently as possible. AT is any adaptive aid used by a person with a disability to function independently.
Some examples are wheelchairs, ramps, and computer voice recognition software.
x Peer Counseling - ILC peer counselors provide support and serve as role models for people who want to live more independently.
x Personal Assistance Services - Many persons with disabilities require personal assistants (PAs) in order to live independently. PAs assist consumers with a wide variety of duties, including personal care, shopping, housework and cooking.
x Housing - ILCs offer one-on-one assistance to qualified consumers in locating affordable and accessible housing.
Typically, centers work with local and regional governments to improve infrastructure, raise awareness about disability issues, and educate elected and government officials on legislation that promotes equal opportunities and prohibits segregation and discrimination.

1. Philosophical: The Board should articulate values and foster understanding of the independent living (IL) philosophy among constituencies and community.
2. Strategic: The Board, in collaboration with the Executive Director, should develop long-term strategies in preparing for the future.
3. Tactical: The Board should provide oversight to ensure the mission is sustained.
Functions and roles of the Board of Directors:
x Mission: To provide direction and oversight to the total affairs of the organization to ensure development and growth. To create, support, carry out, and sustain the organization’s mission, and to restate it if necessary. x Financial Responsibilities: To review and approve investment and financing programs and policies; risk management; retirement plans and other employee benefit programs; annual operating and capital budgets; and the selection of outside auditors.

x Communication: In collaboration with the Executive Director, communicate the organization and its IL philosophy to the public and all constituencies.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 29
In addition to the functions and roles of the Board described above, CID’s ByLaws expressly declare that the Board also has the power to:
x adopt, make, use and/or alter the form of a corporate seal; x borrow money and incur indebtedness for the purpose of the corporation, and to cause to be executed and delivered therefore, in the corporate name, promissory notes, bonds, deeds of trust, mortgages, debentures, pledges, hypothecations or other evidences of debt and securities; x review and approve all contracts over $5,000.00 between CID and other entities; and
x bring or resolve legal conflicts, claims or disputes on behalf of or against CID x carry on a business at a profit, and apply any profit that results from the business activity to any activity in which it may lawfully engage.
How the Board works with CID staff and volunteers:
The Board of Directors is the governing body of CID. It is responsible for the ultimate direction of the management of the affairs of the organization.
The Board is responsible for policy making. The staff is responsible for executing day-to-day management to implement board-made policy. However, the ultimate legal responsibility for the actions (and inactions) of the organization rests with the Board.
Staff/Board communication is a necessary part of the day-to-day operation of CID. It requires some guidelines, in order for all concerned to remain clear about existing lines of authority, and about what the boundaries of their roles are.
The delegation of authority flows from the Board to the Executive Director, and from the Executive Director to the staff. Volunteers are supervised by designated staff members.
The Executive Director should always be viewed as the primary link between board and staff. The Executive Director should always be informed about any communication that happens, or any meeting that is planned, between any staff member and any Board member.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 30
Board members may request copies of information and reports from the staff, but they must not direct staff work. Accordingly, they cannot request new reports from staff that are not already prepared, or directly request any work to be done by staff members. Any Board member’s or Board committee’s request to the staff must be made via the Executive Director.
The Board conducts an annual review of CID’s personnel policies, as set forth in the Employee Handbook. Employee grievances must be communicated by means of the grievance procedure and the channels described in this handbook.
If any Board member receives a complaint from a staff member outside of the grievance process, he or she has a responsibility to direct the staff person back to the appropriate communication channels.
However, because the Board has the authority to hire, fire, and review the performance of the Executive Director, if an employee is concerned that the Executive Director may be engaged in illegal or impermissible activities that cannot be taken up within the grievance process (such as sexual harassment or embezzlement, for example), the employee may communicate this concern to the Board.
With the knowledge and approval of the Executive Director, Board members are enthusiastically encouraged to assist staff in planning for, and carrying out, certain activities that benefit the organization, such as fundraising events, community festivals, and outreach fairs.
Other CID volunteers often provide assistance at these events as well. These volunteers will be supervised by a designated staff member. Any Board member requests, or other Board communication with these volunteers, should go through the staff member who has been designated to supervise the volunteer.
The staff member will inform the Executive Director of this communication whenever it is deemed necessary.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 31
Section 3.5 Board Member Duties and Responsibilities
It is the responsibility of each Board member to do all of the following:
1. Understand and endorse independent living philosophy and disability rights, and have a strong commitment and loyalty to CID and its mission.
2. Establish general agency policies, and amend CID’s by-laws, as needed.
3. Review program plans to ensure they are consistent with CID's mission, and that they reflect changing regulatory, social, and economic conditions in the community.
4. Ensure that effective organizational, fiscal and personnel management practices are being followed at CID.

8. Develop procedures for Board of Directors’ operation.
9. Ensure that CID Board members remain active.

Duties of the Secretary:

CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 34
Section 3.8 Standing Committees (Proposed)
In addition to having an Executive Committee, CID’s By-Laws commit its Board of Directors to maintaining three other standing committees: Finance, Fundraising, and Personnel.
The CID Board’s Executive Committee consists of all of the Board of Directors’ Officers, and any other members appointed by the President of the Board.
Executive Committee meetings may take place if a quorum of at least two committee members is present. At least three members’ votes are required in order for the Executive Committee to reach its decisions.
The Executive Committee acts as coordinating body. It may set Board meeting agendas, develop management and programmatic direction for the corporation, and, in cases of emergency, act of behalf of the Board. The Executive Committee handles all emergency decisions that must be made between regular Board meetings.
The Executive Committee can represent the full Board in decisions involving personnel matters, including the annual review of the Executive Director. All actions taken by the Executive Committee are reported to the Board of Directors at its next meeting. Ratification by the full Board is required before any action can be taken in personnel matters.
The Finance Committee includes the Treasurer and at least one other Board of Directors member. The Treasurer serves as the head of the Finance Committee.
The committee meets prior to each regularly scheduled Board Meeting. The committee regularly reviews CID’s financial situation and reports its findings to the full Board.
The Finance Committee oversees, reports and advises on the overall CID budget, CID’s revenue and expenses, and new funding sources for the organization. It considers and recommends for Board approval any budget revisions, and it oversees CID’s use of funds.
The Resource Development Committee provides direction over CID’s resource development activities. The Fundraising Committee develops CID’s Annual Resource Development Plan, and oversees the planning and execution of each CID resource development activity. The Resource Development Committee may consist of Board of Directors members, the Development Coordinator and other CID volunteers.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 35
Section 3.9 Attendance Policy
The CID Board of Directors holds regular meetings, which are usually scheduled for the last Tuesday of the month.
CID Board members are expected to attend and participate in regular Board meetings. If they are unable to attend in person, they may do so via speakerphone.
Following Introductions at each Board meeting, the Chairperson will ask if there is a motion to excuse any member who is absent. If there is a motion and a second, the members vote. If the motion is carried, the minutes will show the absent board member as being excused.
Whenever a CID Board member has two (2) unexcused absences from regular meetings of the Board within a rolling 12-month period, the Board President, or a designated representative, will make an appropriate inquiry. The President will submit the resulting information for consideration at the next regular Board meeting. The Board may then decide to declare the member’s seat vacant by a majority vote.
A vacancy on CID’s Board will also exist upon the death, removal, or resignation of any Board member. Elections to fill Board vacancies may take place at any scheduled Board meeting. Re-election of a currently serving board member will take place on the three-year anniversary of the month in which they were last elected.

Section 3.10 Recruitment Procedures and Documents
Section 3.10.1 CID Board of Directors Recruitment Policy and Procedure Purpose:
To establish a procedure for acquiring new CID Board members who understand and promote independent living philosophy and disability rights, and who support the mission of CID.
Policy:
A strong Board of Directors is crucial for CID’s ongoing success. This policy sets forth a mechanism for ensuring that prospective board members are identified, informed and ready to serve on the board. It is important to note that CID’s bylaws and funders require that a majority of board members have significant disabilities.
Procedure:
To ensure the aforementioned, CID will observe the following board recruitment procedure.
1. Prospective board members are identified by any one of the following:
x Recommendation by a current board member, the Board's Nominating Committee, or CID staff;
x The person's own expressed interest;
x Referrals generated by outreach efforts to organizations, businesses, and educational institutions that are CID's allies.
2. Anyone who identifies a prospective board member will submit that person's name and contact information to the CID Board's Nominating Committee.
The Nominating Committee Chair will pass the name on to CID's Board President.
3. CID's Board President and Executive Director will meet with the prospective member to talk about CID, the roles and responsibilities of being a board member, and the reasons why s/he wants to serve on the board.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 37
The prospective member will also be given a recruitment packet containing:
x Information about CID for Board Candidates
x CID Brochure
x CID Board Application
x CID Board Member Job Description
x Current CID Board Roster
x What is an Independent Living Center?
4. The prospective board member will then submit a completed board application to the Board President or to CID's Executive Director. The Board President will then send the application, along with any recommendations from CID's Board President and Executive Director, to the members of the Nominating Committee, for their review.
5. The Nominating Committee will then decide whether or not to nominate the person to the full CID Board.
6. The Nominating Committee can choose to nominate a candidate (meaning to inform the board of a candidate whom the Committee feels is appropriate) at a regular board meeting. At that meeting, the board can decide whether or not they'd like to meet the nominee at a subsequent regular board meeting.
7. The nominee will be presented by the Nominating Committee to the full board, so that the nominee may introduce him/herself, and ask and be asked questions. After this portion of the meeting, the nominee should leave, so the board may carry out its business, including a discussion of the nominee and a vote on his/her board membership.
8. The Board President shall inform the nominee of the membership decision.
9. All new board members' terms will commence from the date they are elected to the board, and will continue for a period of three years.

4.2 Conflict of Interest Policy
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 46
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 47
Section 4.1 Legal Responsibilities of the CID Board
The Board of Directors is the governing body of CID. It is responsible for the ultimate direction of the management of the affairs of the organization.
The Board is responsible for policymaking, while staff (and, to a certain extent, officers) are responsible for executing day-to-day management to implement board-made policy.
However, the ultimate legal responsibility for the actions (and inactions) of the organization rests with the board. In addition, there are three legally defined duties of a board:
Duty of Care
The duty of care requires the board and its individual members to act as any prudent person would in similar situations and with similar responsibilities. This requires diligent, attentive, and informed participation.
Duty of Loyalty
The duty of loyalty requires the board and individual members to always act in good faith, and in the best interests of the organization. This requires that a member fully disclose any potential conflict of interest, and all that is known about the conflict. It also requires that other members of the board review and examine the potential conflict, as long as they are not associated with the member or the conflict being considered.
Further, the terms of any transactions with a member of the board (where conflict of interest is an issue) must be, at a minimum, equal to or better than similar transactions obtained by someone with no ties to the organization.
Duty of Obedience
The duty of obedience requires the board, and its members, to act within the requirements of the law and according to their center’s mission, bylaws, rules, and regulations.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 48
Section 4.2 Conflict of Interest Policy
According to the CID By-Laws, a “self-dealing transaction” means a transaction to which the corporation is a party and in which one or more of its directors has a material financial interest. It is acceptable for CID to enter into a business relationship with a member of the Board of Directors, provided it is clearly in the best interest of the Corporation, e.g., the lowest of three bids.
Any Board member may assert the existence of a conflict of interest or selfdealing interest on the part of another Board Member, subject to a vote by the Board of Directors that such a personal conflict of interest exists. The Board member so challenged shall abstain from voting on the matter.

Section 5.1 The Requirements of CID’s Funders (Audit responsibilities) (Proposed)
CID’s Board of Directors retains ultimate responsibility for the fiscal health and fiscal management of the organization.
The Board is responsible for general oversight of CID’s budget.
The Finance Committee recommends to the Board for approval any needed budget revisions that may arise throughout the given fiscal year. It alerts the Board to relevant information about any possible new funding sources. It also advises the Board concerning the specific requirements of all of the organization’s existing funders.
The CID Board, its Finance Committee, or its Executive Committee, must approve accessing CID’s line of credit. The Board is also responsible for approving the acquisition of an outside auditor when necessary.
The Finance Manager prepares budget information according to grant specifications, the Executive Director’s requests, and the Board’s instructions.
During any audit, the Finance Manager supplies the auditor with all needed fiscal information. The Board is ultimately responsible for ensuring that this process is completed in a thorough, appropriate and professional manner.

Each fund shall be invested prudently according to its time horizon, risk tolerance, interest rates, liquidity needs. Current income goals shall be balanced with long-term total return goals. The Finance Committee, in consultation with the Executive Director and the agency's fiscal officer, shall determine the exact amount allocated for each fund category and current income goal. When appropriate, the Finance Committee may consult with an investment counselor.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 59
Investment Criteria based on Mission
CID desires to invest the majority of its funds in companies whose business conduct is consistent with the agency's values and beliefs. CID will use its own best judgment to avoid investing in companies that are known to be in direct conflict with the agency's values and beliefs.
The agency’s values and beliefs are:
1) That people with disabilities have abilities and can participate fully in their community as business leaders, managers of Fortune 500 firms, senior partners of private firms, lawmakers, employees, volunteers, students, parents, etc.
2) That people with disabilities have equal opportunities, access and choices for all aspects of independent living.
CID will not invest in or support companies that are known to and/or have a reputation of systematic discrimination against people with disabilities either individually, by class or by group, or those who have a long history of fighting equal access or barrier removal for people with disabilities.
If an investment being considered meets a specific goal of CID that appears to be inconsistent with the agency's values and beliefs, CID must consult with its Board of Directors before investing. For example, CID may invest a small amount of its resources in companies that do not meet the investment criteria based on mission in order to foster dialogue and systems change. CID must consult with the Board of Directors for approval before investing in such companies.
Reporting
There shall be a monthly update on investments to the Finance Committee.
The report must include the following information:
1) A comparison between the purchase price and the current market price. 2) Any new transactions being made (bought or sold) or any securities which became worthless during the reporting month.
A performance comparison with the S & P 500 shall be done on a periodic basis.
CID Board Manual January 2015 Page 60
An annual investment performance review shall be required and reported to the full Board. This review shall include:
1) A detailed analysis of each security or (mutual fund) in comparison with the benchmark figures.
2) An analysis of the entire investment portfolio.
Cash Flow Requirement
The agency shall inform the investment counselor of any cash flow needs in a timely manner. The investment counselor is required to provide adequate cash flow, when needed.
The amount of funds available for long-term and short-term investments and operating cash flow will be determined by the agency's fiscal officer, in cooperation with the Executive Director, in view of agency cash flow projection.
This amount may vary from year to year, or even month-to-month, depending on agency's cash flow needs.

8 NOTE 1. INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIZATION
Center for Independence of Individuals with Disabilities is a public benefit corporation exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of California Revenue and Taxation Code. The IRS can audit the organization for three years after the due date of the annual IRS form 990. This organization was incorporated to provide services and programs to San Mateo County and nearby counties’ residents with disabilities to optimize their opportunities to live independently. The organization's major sources of revenue include grants from the State of California Department of Rehabilitation, U.S. Department of Education, Social Security Administration, local governments, foundations and public donations.
Nature of Activities
Center for Independence of Individuals with Disabilities (CID) is a nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization available to all persons with disabilities in San Mateo County. The CID mission states that “CID is a non-profit organization that has served San Mateo County for more than thirty-five years. The organization is well known for its exceptional visibility and responsiveness to the needs of individuals with disabilities.”
CID offers peer-oriented independent living training and support services, peer counseling, individual and systemic advocacy, outreach and public education. There is no cost to consumers.
Program Services
CID provides a wide range of services designed to assist people with all disabilities of all ages to live independently in their communities, and all of CID services are free of charge. CID offers the following four core services: Information and Referral, Peer Support, Independent Living Skills Training, and Advocacy and other critical services.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenditures are recorded when incurred.
Basis of Presentation
Financial statement presentation follows the recommendations of the Financial Accounting Standards Board in its Accounting Standards Codification. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the organization is required to report information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets, and permanently restricted net assets.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the organization considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of six months or less to be cash equivalents.
The total cash at September 30, 2020 of $314,114 represents about three months of cash operating expenses.
Center for Independence of Individuals with Disabilities Notes to Financial Statements
As of September 30, 2020
9 NOTE 2. (continued) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Comparative Financial Information
The financial statements include certain previous-year comparative information in combined amounts instead of by net asset class. Such information does not provide sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The reader may refer to the organization’s audited financial statements for the year ended 9/30/19 that shows the detailed information comprising the combined amounts.
Estimates
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Expense Allocation
Directly identifiable expenses are charged to programs and supporting services. Expenses related to more than one function are charged to programs and supporting services usually on the basis of payroll allocations. Management and general expenses include those expenses that are not directly identifiable with any other specific function but provide for the overall support and direction of the organization.
Advertising
The organization expenses all advertising at inception throughout the fiscal year. There is no “direct response” (coupon) advertising. There is no prepaid advertising as of September 30, 2020.
Property and Equipment
Uses of operating funds for fixed asset acquisitions are accounted for as transfers to the fixed asset fund. Property and equipment are carried at cost or, if donated, at the approximate fair value at the date of donation. Depreciation is computed using primarily the straight-line method over five years.
Reclassifications
Certain accounts in the prior-year financial statements may have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in the current-year financial statements.
Restricted and Unrestricted Contributions
Contributions received are recorded as increases in unrestricted or temporarily restricted, depending on the existence and/or nature of any donor restrictions. Therefore cash amounts received in advance of fulfilling the grant or contract requirements are reported as deferred revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 958-605-25-5F issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
Bad Debts
Bad debts are recorded using the direct write-off method whereby they are charged at the time management has determined them to be unrecoverable. Generally accepted accounting principles require that an allowance for bad debt be recorded, but the difference in the amount of bad debt recorded between the two methods is immaterial.

10 PERSONNEL POLICIES
At-Will Employment: CID -
- committed to continue the employment relationship for a specific term.
Employment may be terminated by the employer or the employee at any time, with or without notice, with or without cause. CID retains the right to demote, transfer, change job duties and change compensation at any time with or without notice and with or without cause, at its sole discretion. In deciding to work for CID, or continuing to work for CID, employees must understand and accept these terms. No supervisor, manager, or employee of CID has any authority to enter into an agreement for employment for any specified period of time or to make an agreement for employment on other than at-will terms. CID at-will employment policy cannot be modified or altered in any manner, except in a writing presented to, and formally adopted by, the CID Board of Directors.
Equal Opportunity Employment: CID is an equal opportunity employer and makes employment decisions based on merit and the business needs of CID.
CID does not unlawfully discriminate on the basis of race, color, religious creed, citizenship, marital status, age, national origin, ancestry, physical or mental disability, medical condition, sexual orientation, or any other consideration made unlawful by federal, state or local laws.
CID is committed to compliance with all applicable laws providing equal employment opportunities. This commitment applies to all persons involved in our operations of CID and prohibits unlawful discrimination by any employee or agent of CID, including management and the board members.
Harassment and Discrimination: CID is committed to providing a work environment free of unlawful harassment. CID policy prohibits all forms of harassment including, but not limited to, sexual harassment, gender harassment, physical or mental harassment, as well as race, religious creed, color, national origin or ancestry, physical or mental disability, marital status, age, sexual orientation or any other basis protected by federal, state or local laws. CID applies to all persons involved in the operation of CID, including employees, board members or consumers. Prohibited unlawful harassment includes, but is not limited to, the following behaviors:
March 2014
11 verbal conduct such as epithets, derogatory or offensive jokes, comments, slurs or unwanted sexual advances, invitations or comments
visual displays such as derogatory or offensive sexually-orientated posters, photography, cartoons, drawings or gestures
physical conduct including assault, unwanted touching, intentional blocking of normal movement or interfering with work because of sex, race or any other protected basis
threats and demands to submit to sexual requests as a condition of continued employment or to avoid some other loss or offers of employment benefits in return for sexual favors
retaliation for reporting or threatening to report any type of harassment If any employee or consumer believes that they have been unlawfully harassed a written complaint should be submitted to the Executive Director. The complaint should include as much detail of the incident(s) as possible, including any potential witness names. If the harassment is coming or has come from the Executive Director, the written complaint should be given directly to the board president.
After investigation of the complaint, if CID determines that unlawful harassment has occurred, the appropriate action will be taken immediately, up to and including potential termination. CID will inform all concerned parties as to the results of said investigation. CID will not retaliate against the employee for filing a complaint and will not tolerate or permit retaliation by management, employees or co-workers. CID encourages all employees to report any incidents of harassment immediately so that complaints can be quickly and fairly resolved. Any employee or contractor of CID who is aware of harassment and who does not report it will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including possible termination. All allegations of harassment or discrimination MUST be reported FIRST and immediately to the Company.
Workplace Violence: Most people think of violence as a physical assault.
However, workplace violence is any act in which a person is abused, threatened, intimidated or assaulted in his or her employment. Workplace violence is specifically prohibited and will not be tolerated. It may include harassment as described above and:
March 2014
12 Threatening behavior i.e. shaking fists, destroying property or throwing objects.
Verbal or written threats - any expression of an intent to inflict harm.
Verbal abuse - swearing, insults or condescending language.
Physical attacks - hitting, shoving, pushing or kicking.
Rumors, swearing, verbal abuse, pranks, arguments, property damage, vandalism, sabotage, pushing, theft, physical assaults, psychological trauma, anger-related incidents, rape, arson and murder are all examples of workplace violence. The Executive Director must be informed verbally immediately, and a written incident report should be completed, signed, and provided within 24 hours, or sooner if possible, so that appropriate and timely action can be taken, up to and including dismissal if an employee is found to have behaved in a violent manner in the workplace.
Employees/Applicants with Disabilities: CID welcomes applications from people with disabilities. CID fully supports the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), and the comparable provisions of the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA). CID has taken steps, and continues to work towards making the work facilities barrier-free and accessible as defined by state and federal statutes. CID also makes reasonable accommodations for the known physical or mental limitations of any otherwise qualified applicant or employee with a disability, unless undue hardship would result.
An applicant or employee who requires an accommodation in order to perform the essential functions of the job should contact the Executive Director immediately and request such an accommodation. The individual with the disability should specify what accommodation he or she needs in order to perform the job. CID will then engage in an interactive process with the applicant or employee to identify the barriers that interfere with the equal opportunity of the applicant or employee to perform his or her job. CID will identify possible accommodations, if any, that will help eliminate the limitation. If the accommodation is reasonable and will not impose an undue hardship, we will make the accommodation. Any complaints of non-compliance with state law governing accommodation of disabilities should immediately be brought to the attention of the Executive Director for investigation and, if necessary, resolution.
Arbitration Policy: Pursuant to the at-will employment, confidentiality and arbitration agreement between you and CID, any and all controversies, claims or disputes with anyone, including CID, CID employees, officers, board March 2014
