Financial Sustainability Plan for the Community Computing Program

Founded in 1877, Inglis is a private nonprofit organization that enables people with disabilities, and those who care for them, to achieve their goals and live life to the fullest. Inglis enlisted a Capstone team to provide a financial sustainability plan for its Community Computing Program (CCP), which provides assessment, training, and support for the use of adaptive technology for community-based clients. The team reviewed CCP expenditures to analyze and determine unit costs and conducted research to identify multiple streams of earned and contributed revenue for community-based services and adaptive technology. The team explored reimbursement through managed care for dual-eligible clients, public and private institutional funding, and private philanthropy. Additionally, the team conducted landscape and stakeholder research and analysis relating to these revenue streams to identify priorities. The team’s work resulted in strategic recommendations for value propositions addressing each revenue stream, as well as a five-year financial plan to support and scale CCP activities.
