Form 990, Part III, Line 4a In 2022 ASSIST continued to increase new revenue streams through grants and governmental contracts to be able to grow our operations to serve more people with disabilities in the Portland metropolitan area. Many grant requests were made following a robust grants calendar throughout the year. We enrolled 122 new clients into the program. These severely disabled clients were helped to file Social Security Disability benefits (SSD) and Supplemental Security Income benefits (SSI) applications. We successfully completed 89 cases for our clients. By the end of the year, we had 124 open cases still in progress. Additional training sessions and introductory events were conducted for community partners to strengthen the understanding of ASSIST's work and expand our referral base. Special outreach to organizations that serve people of color have also happened throughout the year. Casework Revenue totaled $265,271 Cash Donation totaled $18,314. We continued to increase agency reserves to facilitate at least three months of expenses. 25% of ASSIST's clients are people of color. Emphasis in the coming year will be to serve more people of color. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The 990 is reviewed by the Executive Director and Board of Directors prior to filing.
