What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) such as autism and Down syndrome experience poorer health, up to six times the preventable mortality rate, and 2-3 times the rates of mental illness as the general population. Despite numerous health complexities, people with I/DD face enormous obstacles in accessing even basic healthcare services. In general, the demand for healthcare services from low-income and medically complex patients throughout Los Angeles County outstrips the supply because many physicians have opted out of provider networks due to low reimbursement rates. There is an even greater shortage of providers with experience caring for the especially vulnerable population of individuals with I/DD and their complex healthcare needs. Even when individuals with I/DD do access care, it is often inadequate due to misconceptions of disease risk, low expectations regarding life expectancy, patient fears/an

The Achievable Health Center

The Achievable Health Center is a federally qualified health center developed to address the critical issue of health disparities and lack of access to adequate health care for our vulnerable population of individuals with developmental disabilities and special health care needs. The Achievable Clinic is a health center which aims to make high quality, comprehensive and coordinated primary and specialty care accessible to individuals with developmental disabilities in Los Angeles County and surrounding areas.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

The Achievable Foundation aspires to change the face of healthcare for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We do this by providing high quality, integrated health care to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, their families, and other vulnerable populations at our health center. In addition, we are working to become a training facility for health care workers to learn how to offer culturally compassionate care to medically vulnerable individuals of all abilities.

Achievable's model features an innovative program to provide a full continuum of culturally appropriate health care to our patients. Our health center was the first Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in California with a special focus on patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). We are the only FQHC co-located with one of California's 21 regional centers (which offer case management to individuals with I/DD), allowing for close collaboration and integration with social supports for these individuals. Our health center goes beyond the basic requirements of a community health center to include enhanced care coordination to patients. This is critical for patients with medical complexities who require integration of a variety of services, specialty care and supports. We also provide extended visits up to 40 minutes for our patients with complex needs, specially trained staff and physicians and a facility built around patients of all abilities

Achievable's health center was built from the ground up to meet the needs of medically complex patients and those with intellectual and developmental disabilities. There are four significant characteristics of our health center that make us uniquely qualified to care for patients with I/DD and other vulnerable populations. First, our extended appointment times of up to 30 minutes to an hour give our practitioners the time they need to thoroughly examine and communicate with our patients. Second, our facility was built to be accessible to patients of all needs. This includes special diagnostic equipment for patients of different abilities, handicap accessible exam tables and more. Third, we are co-located with one of California's 21 regional centers, providing a level of comfort for patients with I/DD already receiving services from the regional center. Finally, our physicians and staff are specially trained to serve our population.

When our health center opened eight years ago, it was not clear whether a health center for individuals with I/DD would be sustainable, we have proven that it is not only sustainable, but a model that can be replicated. In that first year we saw just over 340 patients. In the last three years we've grown our patient load by 20% a year to approximately 2,100 this year (a growth of 570% ). Achievable has also become a training facility helping to fulfill our vision of impacting the entire health care system for individuals with I/DD. Today we have partnerships with The Chicago School of Professional Psychology to train psychologists to treat individuals with I/DD; we are starting a partnership with a local community college to train medical assistants, and we’re working on partnerships with local medical schools which we hope to launch this year. In the coming years we hope to open a second site and expand services at our primary location.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Jul 01 - Jun 30

SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info

The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
