Mr. Rob Brule
First Selectman
Town of Waterford
15 Rope Ferry Road
Waterford CT 06385
Dear Mr. Brule,
We appreciate the Town of Waterford’s past partnership in supporting the work of the New
London Homeless Hospitality Center (NLHHC). With the help of our federal, state, Jocal and community
partners we were able to provide emergency shelter to over 400 single adults.
1am writing to ask for
your continued support of regional services to be provided by the Homeless Hospitality Center in FY22. |
hope that you will be able to provide $ 5,000 toward this critically important work in your FY22 budget.
Our guests came from all parts of New London County. Determining the town of origin for those
we served is difficult. People often descend slowly into homelessness leaving their town of origin for a
larger city well before they finally reach the stage of being literally homeless and in need of emergency
(
shelter.
~
Because Connecticut does not have a county government, financing regional services of any kind
is a challenge. And yet we know that regional services make sense. It would not be effective or practical
to ask each town in our region to provide emergency shelter for its residents experiencing
homelessness. We can provide better and more cost-effective support by centralizing services such as
emergency shelter.
This is what we have done in New London County. But centralization of services can only work if
all the municipalities in our region help support the cost of these services. Over 85% of all the single
adult emergency shelter nights in our region are provided by NLHHC. In addition, every day between 30-
50 people visit our daytime hospitality center to get out of the elements, take a shower, pick up mail or
simply have a place they are welcome to sit.
During the winter we provide a warming center option. We also offer the one-on-one supports
and practical assistance our guests need to rebuild their lives and find permanent housing. We help our
guests address the underlying causes of their homelessness, thereby reducing the likelihood that they
will end up homeless again and in need of services. We are able to help hundreds of those we serve to
quickly return to permanent housing.
Our work has been particularly important and challenging due to the Covid 19 crisis. We have
remained open and worked hard to provide a setting where our neighbors experiencing homelessness
can observe CDC recommended precautions thereby reducing the spread of Covid 19 in our community.
As detailed in the attachment, we have a total of 18 FTE’s supporting our shelter related work at
(
a total cost of approximately $765,000. State and federal funding provides (about 40%) of the funding
~
we need for basic shelter operation. We receive $16,250 (about 1% of our shelter budget) from the
Co
United Way. Local towns currently cover 4% of our costs. Private funding (foundations, private donors
and L+M Hospital) currently covers the remaining more than half of the cost of offering day and
overnight access to shelter. Every dollar matters and only continued support from so many partners
makes our work possible.
We serve as the primary shelter resource for New London County. Surrounding municipalities
have been supporting us in the work we do.
City of New London ($7,000)
Town of Old Lyme ($1,500)
Town of East Lyme ($3,500)
Town of Preston ($1,500)
Town of Groton ($7,125)
Town of Stonington ($2,500)
Town of Montville ($3,000)
Town of Waterford ($5,000)
Town of North Stonington ($1,000)
Town of Lisbon ($1,000)
We rely-on support from surrounding towns te make this regional resource available
to our
neighbors experiencing homelessness. We are hoping for your continued support. | have enclosed both
our total agency budget and a more detailed breakdown of our budget for shelter related activities. An
annual report on our activity last fiscal year and our most recent audit are also attached.
Thank you for considering us for funding in FY22. If you have any questions, need more
information or have special forms you would like us to complete, please don’t hesitate to contact me. |
am also available to attend budget hearings or other forums to provide more information about our
work.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Board of Directors of
New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc.
New London, Connecticut
REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc.
(the Center), which comprise the statement of financial position as of June 30, 2019, and the related
statements of activities, functional expenses, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to
the financial statements.
MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
-
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the
C
design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation
of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
AUDITORS’ RESPONSIBILITY
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to the financial audits contained in the Government Auditing
Standards, issued by the Comptroller of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity’s
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
<
our audit opinion.

OPINION
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc. as of June 30, 2019, and the changes
in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
EMPHASIS OF A MATTER
As discussed in Note J, during the year ended June 30, 2019, the Organization adopted Accounting

Statements of Not-For-Profit-Entities. Our Opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
OTHER MATTERS
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements as a whole.
The accompanying schedule of expenditures of state financial assistance, as required by the State Single
Audit Act, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial
statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates
directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The
information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements
and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the
underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial
statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material
respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.
OTHER REPORTING REQUIRED BY GOVERNMENTAL AUDITING STANDARDS
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated December 5,
2019 on our consideration of the Center’s internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other
matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over
financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Center’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an
integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the
Center’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
REPORT ON SUMMARIZED COMPARATIVE INFORMATION
We have previously audited New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc.’s 2018 financial statements,
and we expressed an unmodified audit opinion on those audited financial statements in our report dated
December 4, 2018. In our opinion, the summarized comparative information presented herein as of and
for the year ended June 30, 2018, is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial
statements from which it has been derived.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PURPOSE OF ORGANIZATION
New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc. (the Center) was established to provide a
place of hospitality for the homeless. At night, the Center provides a shelter for single adults.
The goal is to provide a place of rest and safety in a setting that is welcoming and dignified.
On an average night, the Center provides a place of safety for about fifty (50) men and
women. During the day, the Center offers a hospitality center where the homeless can find
sanctuary and practical assistance. The hospitality center helps address some of the practical
aspects of being homeless such as getting mail, taking a shower, and finding a place to sit in
cold weather. The hospitality center also works to link people with the resources they need to
return to permanent housing. On an average day, eighty (80) people visit the daytime
hospitality center. The thrift shop sells donated goods and the proceeds from the shop
contribute to the support the Center’s programs. The Center also provides a transitional
housing program serving those experiencing homelessness.
CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) No. 2016-14, Not-For-Profit-Entities (Topic 958): Presentation of Financial
Statements of Not-For-Profit Entities. The Amendment changes the previous reporting model
for nonprofit organizations and enhances the disclosure requirements. The major changes
include (a) requiring the presentation of only two classes of net assets rather than three, (b)
modifying the presentation of underwater endowment funds and related disclosures, (c)
requiring the use of the placed in service approach to recognize the expirations of restrictions
on gifts used to acquire or construct long-lived assets absent explicit donor stipulations
otherwise, (d) requiring that all nonprofits present an analysis of expenses by function and
nature in either the statement of activities, a separate statement, or in the notes and disclose a
summary of the allocation methods used to allocate costs, (e) requiring the disclosure of
quantitative and qualitative information regarding liquidity and availability of resources, (f)
presenting investment return net of external and direct internal investments expenses and (g)
modifying other financial statement reporting requirements and disclosures intended to
increase the usefulness of nonprofit financial statements. This ASU is effective for annual
periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Management has adopted ASU 2016-14 for the
year ended June 30, 2019. The amendments have been retrospectively applied.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
PRIOR YEAR SUMMARIZED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The financial statements include certain prior year summarized financial information in total
but not by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a
presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Center’s
financials as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, from which the summarized
information was derived. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2018 amounts to
conform with the current year presentation.
NET ASSET CATEGORIES
To ensure observance of limitations and restrictions placed on the use of resources available
to the Center, the accounts of the Center are maintained in the following net asset categories:
Without Donor Restrictions
Net assets without donor restrictions represent available resources other than donor-restricted
contributions.
With Donor Restrictions
Net assets with donor restrictions represent contributions and investment earnings thereon
that are restricted by the donor either as to purpose or as to time of expenditure.
RECOGNITION OF SUPPORT AND REVENUE
Grants and Contracts
Grants and contracts are generally characterized as exchange transactions in which the
grantor or contractor requires the performance of specific activities.
Entitlement to cost reimbursement grants and contracts is based on the expenditure of finds
in accordance with grant restrictions. Therefore, revenue is recognized to the extent of grant
expenditures. For performance-based grants and contracts, revenue is recognized to the extent
of the performance achieved. Grant receipts in excess of revenue recognized are presented as
deferred revenue.
Contributions
Contributions are defined as voluntary, nonreciprocal transfers.
Unrestricted and unconditional contributions are recognized as support when received or
pledged, if applicable. The Center recognizes contributions of cash and other assets as
support with donor restrictions if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use
of such assets. When a restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or
purpose restriction is accomplished, net assets are reclassified and reported in the statement
of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Contributions received whose use is
contingent on the occurrence of a future event are presented as deferred support until such
conditions are substantially met, at which time they are recognized as support.

JUNE 30, 2019
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
RECOGNITION OF SUPPORT AND REVENUE (Continued)
Donated Services
The Center recognizes contributions of services received if they create or enhance
nonfinancial assets or require specialized skills and would typically need to be purchased if
not provided by donation. General volunteer services do not meet this criteria for recognition
in the financial statements. However, a substantial number of volunteers have donated
significant amounts of time to the Center’s programs.
Donated Assets
Donated assets, including the usage of assets such as rent are recognized at their estimated
fair market value.
The Center reports gifts of land, buildings, and equipment as unrestricted support. Gifts of
long-lived assets with explicit restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts
of cash or other assets that must be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted
support. Absent explicit donor stipulations about how long those long-lived assets must be
maintained, the Center reports expirations of donor restrictions in full when the donated or
acquired long-lived assets are placed in service.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Center defines cash equivalents as liquid
investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The Center had cash
equivalents totaling $256,711 as of June 30, 2019 which consist of a money market account.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment acquisitions and improvements thereon that individually exceed
$1,000 are capitalized at cost, if purchased or at market or assessed value on the date of gift
or bequest. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of
the assets as follows:
Building and improvements
20 — 40 years
Vehicles
5 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
5 — 10 years
Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
SALES TAX
The Center collects Connecticut sales tax from customers on the sale of taxable goods at the
Thrift Shop.
The Center remits the entire amount to the state.
The Center’s accounting
policy is to exclude the sales tax collected and remitted to the state from revenue and
expenses.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
INCOME TAXES
The Internal Revenue Service has determined that the Center is exempt from federal income
taxes on exempt function income as a public charity under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code. Consequently, no provision for income taxes has been made in the
accompanying financial statements.
The Center did not recognize any liability for uncertain tax positions as defined by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The federal tax return of the Center for the year ended June 30, 2019 is subject to
examination by the IRS, generally for three years after it has been filed.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Center has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through December 5, 2019,
which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. There were no
subsequent events that require additional disclosure.
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
The Center’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist
primarily of cash and cash equivalents and grants receivable. The Center places its cash
deposits in high quality financial institutions and such deposits are fully covered by federal
depository insurance. Grants receivable consist primarily of amounts due under a contract
with a federal agency. Based on historical experience, management believes these receivables
represent negligible credit risk. Accordingly, management has not established an allowance
for potential credit losses.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
A summary of property and equipment is as follows:
Land
$
468,124
Buildings and improvements
2,890,935

OPERATING LEASES
The Center leases the space for its Thrift Store Program under a month to month operating
lease. The monthly lease amount is $4,000 plus utilities.
The Center also rents space for housing on a periodic basis as part of its Housing Program.
Rent expense under all these arrangements totaled $109,925, which includes $19,625 of

categories of expenses that are attributable to more than one program or supporting
function. Therefore, these expense require allocation on a reasonable basis that is
consistently applied. The expenses that are allocated include depreciation and office and
occupancy, which are both allocated on a square footage basis, as well as salaries and
benefits, which are allocated on the basis of time and effort studies.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS
BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the Board of Directors of
New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc.
New London, Connecticut
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of New London
Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc. (the Center) which comprise the statement of financial position as of June
30, 2019, and the related statements of activities, functional expenses and cash flows for the year then
ended, and the related notes to the financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated
December 05, 2019.
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
(
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered New London Homeless
Hospitality Center, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Center’s
internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Center’s internal
control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or
detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a
timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control
that is less severe than material weaknesses, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged
with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this
section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any
deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses.
However, material
weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Center’s financial statements are free of
material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the
determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The
results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be
reported under Government Auditing Standards.
PURPOSE OF THIS REPORT
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance
and the results of that testing, and not provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Center’s internal
control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly,
this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR
STATE PROGRAM AND REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
REQUIRED BY THE STATE SINGLE AUDIT ACT
To the Board of Directors of
New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc.
New London, Connecticut
REPORT COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR STATE PROGRAM
We have audited New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc.’s (the Center) compliance with the types
of compliance requirements described in the Office of Policy and Management’s Compliance Supplement
that could have a direct and material effect on each of the Center’s major state programs for the year ended
June 30, 2019. New London Homeless Hospitality Center, Inc.’s major state programs are identified in the
summary of auditors’ results section of the accompanying schedule of state findings and questioned costs.
MANAGEMENT?’S RESPONSIBILITY
Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants
applicable to each of its state programs.
AUDITORS’ RESPONSIBILTIY
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the Center’s major state programs
based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of
compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the
standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States; and the State Single Audit Act (C.G.S. Sections 4-230 to 4-236),
Those standards and the State Single Audit Act require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to
above that could have a direct and material effect on a major state program occurred. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Center’s compliance with those requirements and performing
such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major state
program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the Center’s compliance.
OPINION ON EACH MAJOR STATE PROGRAM
In our opinion, the Center complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements
referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major state programs for the
year ended June 30, 2019.

REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
Management of the Center is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal contro] over
compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our
audit of compliance, we considered the Center’s internal control over compliance with the types of
requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major state program to determine the
auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion
on compliance for each major state program and to test and report on internal control over compliance in
accordance with the State Single Audit Act, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
