2013 Annual Report

2013 ANNUAL REPORT
Dear Friend,
When our clients first arrive at one of our centers, they often
define themselves by the tough circumstances and high barriers
they face. Being out of work, poor or homeless would make
anyone doubt their worth and what they have to contribute to
the world. But at Chrysalis, we help people change the stories
they have come to believe are true. A client who is frustrated
becomes encouraged, a client who is insecure becomes confident
and a client who is unemployed gets a job. As you will see on
the following pages, Chrysalis is all about the opportunity to
redefine who you are.
In 2013, we helped over 2,000 clients secure employment, a
record for us, and a 15% increase over 2012. The investment
that you have made in our work over the past few years is
paying off. New curriculum elements, our workshop series,
additional client-facing staff, and better infrastructure have
enabled us to provide deeper, more comprehensive support to
our clients, resulting in better short- and long-term outcomes.
One of our signature initiatives is Chrysalis Enterprises,
our transitional jobs program. Our businesses operate in a
competitive environment and are subject to all the challenges
that running a business in California entails—yet they
provided over 320,000 hours of work for our clients,
a 24% increase from 2012.
While we are proud of our accomplishments, our work is not
done. We plan to continue to invest in our people and our
program in order to accelerate the pace at which our clients
become work-ready, find employment, and retain their jobs.
Thank you for your continued generosity and support. With
your help we will continue to help our clients write a new story
for themselves.

The moment someone steps into a Chrysalis Center, they
are welcomed by a lobby filled with light, color and an
abundance of tools to make getting a job a reality. At the
heart of the Chrysalis model is the one-on-one relationship
each client has with their caseworker—we call them
Employment Specialists (ES for short). Together, they
develop a road map to success by customizing a plan
designed to address their specific barriers. With the support
of their ES and the numerous program resources, clients
build the skills needed to conduct a successful job search.

When I came to Chrysalis,
I lacked confidence in my abilities.
I have a past, and most employers
didn’t want to hire me because of it.
Chrysalis is helping me to tell my story
in the right way so no one can hold it
against me. I want to show my children
that you can stay CONFIDENT
no matter what life throws at you.

Enterprises showed me it’s
important to give 100%–not only
what’s expected of me, but going
above and beyond. You can succeed in

I always give it the best I got. My kids

DEMOGRAPHICS
ABOUT OUR CLIENTS
Our clients often have a combination of barriers when they
first arrive at Chrysalis. We customize a plan that addresses
each one. Perhaps equally important is how our program
helps clients to challenge the negative beliefs they have
about their abilities and potential.

When I came to Chrysalis,
I needed help with a lot of things.
I found motivation through the classes
and all the people who are in the same
situation as me. Chrysalis showed me a
way to survive outside of prison. They
MOTIVATED me to get my
life back on the right track.

HOPEFUL is how I feel today.
I was ready to give up and didn’t know
where to go. At Chrysalis, the classes and
the Women’s Empowerment Program all
really helped me. In the time management
class, I realized that I was spending all
my time and energy thinking about what
I should have done yesterday. Now I focus
on what I will accomplish today. I feel
like my heart is open again.
