Cardinal McCloskey Community Services 2013-2014 Biennial Report Safe children, stable families, successful lives MISSION STATEMENT Cardinal McCloskey Community Services strives to protect, empower and promote independence for at-risk children and families and those with developmental disabilities through quality community based services. VISION STATEMENT As a dynamic organization, we will lead, advocate and serve to enhance lives by anticipating and responding to community needs. FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO Dear Friends, We are proud to present our 2013-2014 Biennial Report for your review. Over the past two years, CMCS programs have been filled with growth as we continue to expand our efforts to provide quality care for some of the most vulnerable children and adults in our communities. Undeniably, measured FINNERTY growth brings the need for increased resources and supports necessary to BETH President and CEO achieve our important mission of protecting, empowering, and promoting independence for at-risk children, families, and adults with developmental disabilities. During this time period in particular, our Developmental Disabilities division has made incredible advancements towards program expansion. We are happy to announce that we received approval to open two new residential homes for an additional eight individuals and received funding to expand our day habilitation enrollments. Additionally, in our Early Childhood Division, we completed our merger with the Little Angels Head Start program as well as being selected as a primary provider of Universal Pre-Kindergarten services in New York City. Finally, in our Children’s Division, we were able to expand both our children’s residential programming as well as our direct clinical service delivery for children in foster care. Overall, it is because of our prestigious reputation of quality service delivery that we have been afforded these opportunities to grow and expand the important work we do on a daily basis. The needs of the individuals we serve are always at the forefront of our service delivery; it still remains a primary driver of our work and our mission. While we have myriad examples that embody this personalized attention, one example in our Children’s Division program particularly stands out. In our Prevention program, our dedicated staff members are working with the parents of a medically frail 12 year-old girl who had been struggling to provide their daughter with the proper care; unfortunately, these parents simply did not have knowledge about the necessary resources needed to assist their daughter in her daily living. This young girl had outgrown her wheel chair years before coming to us. With our advocacy, we were able to guide her parents in navigating their way through the complicated Medicaid system to get a new wheelchair and obtain beneficial specialized transportation services for medical appointments. Our goal, of course, is teaching the needed advocacy skills to her parents so that in the future, they could in turn advocate for their daughter without our assistance. This is only one example of a loving family pushed beyond their limits while trying to do what was best for their daughter. CMCS was merely a conduit for these parents to become better equipped to care for their medically frail child. These are the stories that, through your unwavering support, we gladly share with you today. It is important that we also share with you that with the increased demand for services comes a demand on our infrastructure/ resources. As a result of our program expansion, we must also develop all of the support services required of our larger organization. From recruiting qualified personnel, hiring additional members for our finance team, and securing appropriate office space within financial constraints, our growth has brought increased responsibility and needs. Therefore, we have placed an increased emphasis on raising awareness levels of the agency, our services and philanthropic needs. In March of 2013, we are proud to have been selected “Agency of the Month” by the New York Nonprofit Press. An informational article about our agency and its programs, touting our stellar provision of services, highlighted by key staff interviews, was published and disseminated to a large network of providers. Moreover, in the summer of 2013, we updated and launched our new website (www.cmcs.org) in order to best continued on page 2 2012/13 — 2013/14 BIENNIAL REPORT • 1 FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO continued from page 3 communicate information about our agency and its programs and further drive additional donations to support CMCS as a whole. We are also well underway in developing and distributing new program agency marketing materials that will assist us in our grant application and fundraising efforts. One marketing campaign centered around posting an agency advertisement on the Metro-North trains. We received tremendous positive feedback on the posters we placed in the Metro-North cars asking those in our community to “Help us as we help others.” Our plea to “help us help others” did not stop there! To help spearhead and meet the needs of our growth, in the summer of 2014, we began terrifically important work on our upcoming “The Partnership of Hope, Growth and Promise” Campaign to help meet the financial demands of the agency. This is a five year campaign with a goal of raising $10-$15 million dollars for CMCS. A critical part of our mission is that we not just treat the immediate needs of those in our care, but impact their lives in a way that helps change and improve their paths so they live safer, more fulfilling and enriched lives. To achieve just that, we need to be able to subsidize the monies received from our governmental contracts as, unfortunately, this revenue is simply not enough to assist us in our expansion. “A critical part of our mission is that we not just treat the immediate needs of those in our care, but impact their lives in a way that helps change and improve their paths so they live safer, more fulfilling and enriched lives.” As you can see, it has been quite an exciting and challenging two years for Cardinal McCloskey Community Services. As we move forward to achieving the goals laid out in our Strategic Plan, I know we will continue to add to our service delivery in the midst of governmental and regulatory changes. We are currently awaiting changes in health care laws for individuals being served in our Children’s and Developmental Disabilities divisions and this brings with it much uncertainty. Of what I am certain, though, is that while we adapt to changing laws and requirements, our steadfast focus will always be, first and foremost, caring for the children, families, and adults with developmental disabilities who we are proud to call a part of our CMCS family. Sincerely, Beth Finnerty, President & CEO FOSTER CARE SERVICES FOSTER CARE SERVICES As a provider of child welfare services, CMCS knows well the traumatic impact that foster care placement has on children, as it means being removed from the care of their parents and from their homes and families. At the same time, removing a child from his/her parents may be critical to the child’s safety, health and well-being. The unfortunate reality is that some of NYC’s children are living without even a basic level of security and care, and may also be experiencing abuse and other dangers that many people would find hard to fathom. As such, children come to CMCS having experienced very real and significant trauma, loss and fear in their young lives. They have complex needs for treatment and care to help them heal, begin to form healthy relationships and return safely to their families. The goal of our Foster Care programs is to provide the appropriate range of services for children, adults and families to meet their emotional and physical needs and help them begin a path towards a healthy and productive life. All of our staff operate with the commitment that no child should linger in foster care and that each and every one is entitled to a safe and stable home where they can thrive, enjoy life and be successful. Our services include Family Foster Care, Treatment Family Foster Care, Preparing Youth for Adulthood (PYA), Strategies for Success, and Adoption Services. Some services are partially funded by the New York City Administration for Children Services (ACS), while others (like Strategies for Success) are funded solely by private donations. FAMILY FOSTER CARE (FFC) The CMCS Family Foster Care program provides children whose families are unable to care for them a safe home environment with trained and certified foster parents. These children come to us with a history of having suffered trauma and neglect, be it emotional, physical and/or sexual abuse. Our goal is to treat each child and help them overcome the abuse they have suffered. Our foster parents provide the love, care and stability that was lacking in their homes. Our service milieu provides children with counseling, medical care, mental health services and social work and educational support. These children quickly experience CMCS’ primary purpose: to take good care of them, keep them safe and enhance their well-being. Our foster care program is intended to be a temporary safe haven for the children we serve; therefore, equally important to treating our children is providing their birth families with needed services so that they may resume parenting in the near future. These services can include parenting skills programs, mental health treatment, and/or substance abuse services. 4 ÷ CARDINAL McCLOSKEY COMMUNITY SERVICES We engage parents and connect them with these and other supports with the hope that each child and family can be safely and securely reunited without a future risk of maltreatment to the child. Sadly, there are instances where a child cannot return their birth parents, despite considerable diligent efforts to help parents make necessary behavior and other life changes. Our goal then becomes finding the child a safe and stable permanent home, with adoptive parents or legal guardians. TREATMENT FAMILY FOSTER CARE (TFCC) Our Treatment Family Foster Care program is designed for children who present with serious emotional disturbances and other mental health and behavioral conditions that call for specially trained foster parents and a more intensive set of services. These children, mostly youth aged 12 and above, have generally been in foster care for an extended period of time, and have experienced placements in multiple foster homes, with each movement creating additional stressors and trauma for them. The children in TFFC typically require more intensive individualized treatment plans and services to help them overcome behavioral problems that interfere with their functioning in their homes, schools, and communities. Some of these youth may have experienced extreme traumatic experiences including food and emotional deprivation and physical and sexual abuse, with some having endured psychiatric hospitalizations and/ or placement in residential treatment facilities during their young life. Our purpose is to work toward and establish the proper and most effective ways to serve these very fragile children and youth. Social workers and Behavioral Specialists work with each child intensely on a weekly basis in conjunction with specialized medical and clinical personnel who provide added support to fully address behavioral and medical challenges. Our TFFC Foster Parents participate in special annual training programs to qualify initially and then retain their certification as Treatment Foster Parents. These trainings help foster parents recognize the impacts of trauma, understand the treatment methods and work in partnership with treatment team to meet the needs of these children. PREPARING YOUTH FOR ADULTHOOD (PYA) CMCS aims to have a long-term positive impact on the lives of children in our foster care programs. To that end, we work to help facilitate the changes that will shape and define a brighter future for them. Since 1989, our Preparing Youth for Adulthood (PYA) program has assisted older children in foster care, ages 14 to 20 years old, transition from FOSTER CARE SERVICES Sr. Jeanne Shary attends the college graduation of a proud young woman who benefited from the support of the CMCS Foster Care services. Sr. Marie Hess as she prepares for one of her visits to the many colleges and universities where some of young men and women from the CMCS Foster Care programs are enrolled. foster care to independent, successful lives. Educational support plays a large role in our PYA program with workshops, SAT prep sessions and tutoring. A highlight of our PYA program is the weekend life-skills retreats held in Saugerties, New York. These weekend retreats and all PYA programs offer important guidance and tools that help empower and encourage our youth, allowing them to believe that they can succeed in life. We assist them in evaluating their talents and opportunities. Exploring higher education or various vocational fields provides them with the vision and knowledge that they have options available to them, provided they invest in the work required. The PYA program has been an integral part of our foster care services as it helps these young men and women at the critical time in their life as they strive for independence. tremendous impact on the lives of our children. Pairing education with the critical support and guidance is key in keeping these foster children enrolled, engaged and focused on school. It is the best chance these children have in improving their lives. Since 2010, not a single one of the youth enrolled in our Strategies for Success program has dropped out of school. These incredible outcomes have supported the possibility of bringing the SFS Program to scale for all of the youth in our foster care program. The program’s success allows us to demonstrate its effectiveness and has inspired the possibility of influencing the entire child welfare community into providing more comprehensive educational support services to these youth. ADOPTION SERVICES STRATEGIES FOR SUCCESS (SFS) In the best of circumstances, the teen years are filled with developmentally appropriate strife, a time when we see youth exercising poor decision making that can negatively affect their futures. For teens in foster care, these challenges are exacerbated by the uncertainty in their home lives, the neighborhood influences around them, and the difficulty of living through and coming to terms with the trauma and tragedies they face. Our youth need attentive and individualized guidance and support to help them navigate successfully through this time in their lives. As we do this for our youth, we place prime emphasis on their educations and school experience. Our Strategies for Success program is a comprehensive educational guidance and support service entirely provided through private fund-raising dollars. Strategies for Success was developed to meet the needs of our youngsters by mirroring the guidance provided by private schools counselors. This type and level of guidance, support, tutoring, and advocacy are all invaluable in making a Foster care placement is at times necessary in order to keep children safe, but we expect it to be a temporary intervention after which children can safely return home. Unfortunately for some, the safety risks that bought them into foster care – parental substance abuse or severe mental illness, for example -- cannot be adequately resolved, so the children are not able to return to their parents’ care. For the long term safety, health and well-being of these children, their permanency planning goal becomes adoption over the course of their time in care. The CMCS adoption staff, as well as the case planning team and service providers, work closely together to ensure that the legal and case planning process to achieve adoptions moves as expeditiously as possible. In fact, CMCS has met and or exceeded our annual targets for adoption finalizations each and every year, as established by the NYC Administration for Children’s Services (ACS). Based on the care given by all involved and the success rates achieved, CMCS remains a preferred provider of adoption services for ACS and the City of New York.• 2012/13 — 2013/14 BIENNIAL REPORT • 5 6 ÷ CARDINAL McCLOSKEY COMMUNITY SERVICES AT-RISK SERVICES AT-RISK SERVICES Our At-Risk Services’ mission is to promote a safe and nurturing environment for at-risk children and youth and the goal is to keep children safe, prevent abuse and strengthen biological families. We aim to ensure that all children and youth in our care who are at-risk of being removed from the home or becoming homeless have every ancillary service available at their disposal to prevent that outcome. DROP-IN CENTER The Sunrise Drop-In Center offers a warm and inviting location for youth homeless, runaway and “at-risk” youth, including but not limited to, those currently in foster care or who have aged out, young parents, victims of abuse, youth involved in the criminal or juvenile justice system, or LGBTQ youngsters. The goal of the program is to protect youth between the ages of 14-24 and, whenever possible, to reunite them with their families through an integrated network of services. When reunification is not possible, the program aims to protect youth and help them progress towards independent living. Through daily workshops, case management services are offered and youth are assisted in meeting their basic needs, in receiving medical and mental health services, in furthering their education, in attaining employment, and in acquiring the skills necessary to becoming an empowered, independent individual. PREVENTIVE SERVICES Our Preventive Services Programs are a proactive measure to keep families together through early intervention that addresses potential risk to children. The focus is to create independence, help families acquire appropriate skills which promote safety for their children and empower families to be self-sufficient. Additionally we work to strengthen families as they cope with the day-to-day pressures as well as life tragedies that can challenge parental capacity to appropriately care for and protect children. Most of the families we serve consist of single parents who are suffering from the effects of poverty, working families who struggle with raising their children, families who feel displaced and are culturally alienated in a new homeland and families who struggle with their mental health and/or substance abuse. Preventive Services programs have restored many families to functioning levels, a tremendously positive contribution to the community as a whole. CMCS operates three prevention programs, our Family Treatment and Rehabilitation Program, Special Medical and Developmental Preventive Services and our newest evidence-based preventive program, Family Connections. Our Family Treatment and Rehabilitation Program works with some of the most vulnerable children and families in the city as they are suffering from significant mental health illness, struggle with substance abuse and in most instances multiple family members are challenged with both. Special Medical and Developmental Preventive Services are intended for families with either a child with special medical needs, a child and/or parent with a developmental disability, or a child in need of early permanency planning due to a parent’s illness. The goal of these services is to support families where a parent is suffering from a progressively chronic or terminal illness; or to provide a bridge to more long-term services for families with children with special medical needs, developmental disabilities, or both. Additionally, the program assists a terminally ill parent to identify a future permanency resource and help them plan and prepare for the transfer of custody of their children. CMCS is one of four borough wide providers selected to work with this extremely vulnerable population. In 2013, CMCS opened the Family Connections Prevention Program, introducing evidence-based practice to our child welfare work with families and children. Family Connections provides community based in-home services to families with children who reside in the East Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, and works closely with parents to develop plans that will promote the achievement of their own family’s goals. Family Connections uses a strength-based individualized approach when working with families. Our trained case planning staff supports families to identify and build upon their strengths, offers the families change focused intervention sessions, and engages them in community based services which will meet each family’s needs. CMCS is part of a collaborative of nine agencies in New York City that implemented this program together, with support and guidance from the developer of the program model. The roll-out of Family Connections marks exciting and important progress in the development of services and supports for NYC families. Family Connections brings an approach to helping families to make positive changes in their parenting, family relationships and home life, using methods that have been tested and proven effective. The Family Connections model utilizes rigorous training and ongoing coaching and quality assurance that support our staff as they deliver this intervention. FOOD PANTRIES Our South Bronx location operates a food pantry once a week in an effort to alleviate hunger, malnutrition and promote overall health and wellness. This federally funded program has been in operation since the early 80’s and is 2012/13 — 2013/14 BIENNIAL REPORT • 7 AT-RISK SERVICES available to anyone in the community on an emergency basis at least once a week. This operation is entirely staffed by CMCS prevention program employees who volunteer their personal time to provide children and families with all of the food items necessary to help bridge the gap and promote a nutritious and well-balanced diet. RESIDENTIAL SERVICES FOR CHILDREN Our Children’s Residential Services provide a therapeutic home for young people in Westchester and Rockland Counties. The overriding philosophy of the program follows the Sanctuary Model, which promotes a traumainformed culture and places an emphasis on organizational culture through commitments to nonviolence, emotional intelligence, social learning, shared governance, social responsibility, open communication, growth and change. These commitments shape the process of creating a culture that is trauma-sensitive with an emphasis placed on the culture of the entire organization. HAYDEN HOUSE EMERGENCY RESIDENCE & SCHOOL Our Hayden House Emergency Residence carries on the legacy of CMCS’s original facility for abused or neglected children in Westchester County. Each year Hayden House provides around-the-clock emergency intervention to approximately 30 children in crisis between the ages of 8 and 18. Once at Hayden House, children receive temporary care until suitable and safe living arrangements are made. During this time each child receives a total diagnostic evaluation and a comprehensive care plan so they can begin to put their lives back together. During the past 20 years, more than 2,500 of Westchester’s most severely abused children began the road to recovery at Hayden House. These children arrive both during the day and night, usually with just the clothes on their backs. The Cardinal McCloskey School is licensed by the New York State Department of Education and is recognized as one of very few residential schools of its kind in Westchester County. It is located at Hayden House and serves grades 4 through 12 following the NYS mandated Regents curriculum. Children are required to take and pass all standardized tests following the NYS Department of Education testing schedule. Three teachers with multiple state education certifications teach the students all of the required courses in addition to art, music, gym and health. We provide students with academic support, personalized intervention and remedial education through ASPIRE, our after-school program that uses computers to help the children catch up academically. We have been blessed to witness many of our 8 ÷ CARDINAL McCLOSKEY COMMUNITY SERVICES children passing the Regents exams and advancing several reading grade levels in mere months. These achievements demonstrate their remarkable resilience. ADOLESCENT GIRLS GROUP HOME As an alternative to the traditional foster home, our Tappan Girls Group Home provides girls, ages 12 to 21, some of whom have been physically and sexually abused, with a safe place to live and services to meet their educational, vocational and social needs. Their health care and mental health needs are also met through the program. Our unique model is comprised of a married couple who act as house parents and invite these young ladies to live in their home. They thrive in this environment by attending local schools, maintaining part-time jobs and participating in community activities. The program is a huge success with many of the residents going on to attend college. BRIDGES TO HEALTH (B2) PLANNED RESPITE SERVICES Within CMCS’ Bridges to Health program children and families can participate in a planned visit to Hayden House located in Ossining, NY. Planned respite at Hayden house provides short term overnight relief, thus affording Caregivers the ability to contend with their child’s disability, health care issues, or their own self care needs; leading to safe and healthy families. While at Hayden house youth are offered a variety of recreational activities and opportunities for positive peer interactions. In addition to planned visits to Hayden house, Bridges to Health offers emergency short term relief for Caregivers to prevent, minimize, or resolve a behavioral crisis leading to successful functioning and engagement for youth in their care. HORIZONS OF HOPE Horizons of Hope is a federally funded program governed by the Office of Refugee Resettlement and operated out of our Hayden residence in Ossining, NY. The HOH program at CMCS was launched in late March 2014, with its first intake on May 15, 2014. The twelve bed shelter is an OCFS licensed facility that provides basic shelter in addition to interdisciplinary services to unaccompanied youth ages six through seventeen. The program can shelter males or females and gender vacancies vary dependent on current status and room availability. Most youth served originate from El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico, and Guatemala. The program expedites a reunification process with ORR approval and guidance, ensuring a safe and timely continued on page 9 AT-RISK SERVICES continued from page 8 reunification with identified sponsors/family members. A typical length of stay varies between 15 – 25 days. In addition to family reunification, the program provides brief in-house counseling, in the form of individual and group counseling to reduce trauma symptoms and create sense of safety. Know Your Rights legal presentations by Catholic Charities assist youth in understanding the immigration court process and various types of relief forms. Education is provided by specialized bilingual professionals and recreation, acculturation and social activities are also provided internally and through the community collaborations. Additionally, daily recreation activities are provided to enhance social and emotional well-being, as well as exercise fine and gross motor skills. Offsite recreation is also provided for all youth once flight risk is assessed, typically after seven days. • SPECIALIZED CLINICAL SERVICES Our Specialized Clinical Services provide additive services that help to support the critically important work being conducted across numerous agency programs and locations. Over the years, we have made considerable investments in this area so that it is a well-established partner in our service delivery systems. They participate in a significant way in our day-to-day efforts to ensure safety and provide permanency for the most vulnerable of children, youth, families, and adults with developmental disabilities in the NYC Metro Region and Westchester/Rockland Counties. MEDICAL & CLINICAL SERVICES Our Medical & Clinical Services Program provides comprehensive medical and clinical care to every child, family and individual with developmental disabilities in our care. The program, designed to address both mental and physical health services, includes routine immunizations, physical examinations, diagnostic and preventive care in addition to a wide array of direct clinical services including individual and family therapy. Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, Master’s Level Psychologists and Licensed Psychologists and Psychiatrists maintain a steady presence in all programs and are available on a 24-hour basis to respond immediately to the medical and mental health needs of the individuals in our care. Our experienced medical and clinical personnel provide extensive training to those we serve and to staff, enhancing their knowledge on topics related to health and wellness. Relationships with health care providers and hospitals throughout the communities we serve further ensures that the highest quality of care is always available. BRIDGES TO HEALTH (B2H) The Bridges to Health (B2H) Program is a statewide initiative designed to tailor comprehensive health care plans for children in foster care with serious emotional disturbances, developmental disabilities and medical frailties. Studies show that more than half of the children in foster care have one or more mental health disorders (i.e. post-traumatic stress disorder) and at least one chronic medical condition. Our B2H program service delivery is designed specifically for these vulnerable children and their caregivers to promote permanency and maximize functioning in their home, community, and school settings. This revolutionary program offers 14 additional services in these key areas aimed at improving their quality of life until they are 21 years old. A unique feature of this program is that services can continue for children and families after an adoption, a time when significant support is needed to ensure that a child has successfully adapted to their permanent environment. • 2012/13 — 2013/14 BIENNIAL REPORT • 9 10 ÷ CARDINAL McCLOSKEY COMMUNITY SERVICES SERVICES FOR PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES SERVICES FOR PERSON WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES Finding the proper care and support for a family member with a developmental disability can challenge families in many ways. There is the balance and peace of mind in knowing that a family member is receiving the best care and support possible today while keeping an eye on the future, making sure he or she will be cared for during times of transition and will be in an environment that offers opportunities to live fulfilling and enriched lives. CMCS has designed support services to help individuals and their families meet their specific goals and enjoy a rich quality of life. All services and supports we provide are designed with the goal of enriching the lives of those we serve and building a sense of personal fulfillment. INDIVIDUAL RESIDENTIAL ALTERNATIVE (IRA) HOMES Each unique living arrangement in our Individual Residential Alternatives offers the individuals in our care a place they can call home and exceptional, caring support, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We currently operate 16 residential homes in Westchester, Rockland and the Bronx and have recently received approvals to open 2 additional homes. All support professionals are trained and committed to providing opportunities for personal growth and development. Supports and services include assistance as needed in areas of independent living, medical services, recreation and leisure. Community inclusion is encouraged and supported. Residents participate in activities of their choice during the day be it employment, pre-vocational or day habilitation programs. A Residence Manager is the onsite supervisor and clinical supports are also provided. An individual can expect a quality of life based primarily from a perspective that centers on what matters to them and allows them to live to their fullest potential. Additional areas of support include building meaningful personal connections at home and in the community, making good healthy choices in menu planning or lifestyle, participating in community activities like; attending the theater, participating in sports, volunteering time in community service activities, going to the salon, horseback riding or fishing, hiking, swimming, etc., Each individual can feel secure and safe in knowing they too have a stake in their world and are free to dream and achieve a life of endless possibilities. INTERMEDIATE CARE FACILITY (ICF) Twelve medically frail individuals with developmental disabilities reside at our Intermediate Care Facility in Mt. Vernon. With ICF services, each individual is provided a full range of clinical services on site, as the needs of those in ICFs are generally greater than those in IRAs. As such, having both IRAs and an ICF in our continuum of residential care allows us to serve a greater number of individuals with more complex needs. SERVICE COORDINATION PROGRAM Service coordination is specifically designed to assist you with navigating the service delivery system. The service coordinator is an experienced, trained professional of the person’s choosing. Service coordination is the service that drives all others. The Service Coordinator will meet and interview the individual and his/her family members in order to help identify various services that may help meet individual needs. The service coordinator records a profile of the person, which includes his/her natural supports, safeguards, and current services. Most importantly, a review is completed and the record of this evaluation of services and goals is documented. This Individualized Service Plan (ISP), also documents valued outcomes. These may include outcomes such as learning new skills in a variety of areas, becoming more involved with the community, obtaining employment and increasing socially appropriate behaviors. Once the valued outcomes are established, the service coordinator works with them to determine the path they may take to reach their goals. He/she will assist with completing referral applications as needed and monitoring services once underway to ensure they continue to meet their needs. The Service Coordinator will facilitate an ISP Review every six months with all the parties involved in the ISP. Service coordination can include visiting with the school/programs, medical providers and other services. The service coordinator will also help maintain their eligibility as required and other benefits as well, such as Medicaid and Social Security. In addition to our Medicaid Service Coordination (MSC), CMCS also offers Short Term Family Assistance for those who do not qualify, or need help applying, for Medicaid. DAY HABILITATION SERVICES Our Day Habilitation services offer a social environment where individuals build and refine skills to pursue their goals, leading to increased independence and increased options for employment. As with our other programs, CMCS works with individuals and families to evaluate skills and together make recommendations that will lead to continued on page 12 2012/13 — 2013/14 BIENNIAL REPORT • 11 SERVICES FOR PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES continued from page 7 successful and rewarding choices. These programs focus on community integration, volunteering and vocational skill building. We support individuals with activities that foster independent living skills and work readiness. Participants attend regularly scheduled recreational activities fostering opportunities to improve their socialization skills. Some examples of our volunteer opportunities include the Food Patch, soup kitchens, Chamber of Commerce, Adult Day Care Centers and VA Centers. We teach skills and help individuals pursue their goals through engaging in everyday activities that are purposeful, meaningful, goal-oriented and fun. We also offer a packed weekly agenda including a variety of interest driven activities, such as horseback riding, dance instruction, movement classes (Zumba, Yoga, Samba etc.), participation in a baseball league, and more. Our Day Habilitation Services offer both an on-site program based out of our Valhalla office and a Without Walls option where the services are provided in the community. We recently received approval from the Office for People with Developmental Disabilities to increase the number of on-site participants from 15 to 25 individuals. We have expanded our space in our Valhalla location to accommodate this increase. SHORT TERM FAMILY ASSISTANCE Our Short Term Family Assistance Program is a referral and advocacy service for individuals with developmental disabilities in Westchester County. This special program is awarded to us through the local Developmental Disabilities Regional Office of the New York State Office for People with Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD). It is intended to assist families in Westchester County with obtaining Medicaid and other needed services and benefits. SUPPORTIVE EMPLOYMENT Supportive Employment is a full service employment program which includes vocational skill building and enhancement, travel training, resume and cover letter writing, assistance in writing job applications, interviewing and long term support both on and off the job site. Individuals in this program receive customized vocational support to build marketable skills, learn about industries of their choice and become a competitive candidate for employment opportunities. All participants train through CMCS’s Professional Development Training program. The curriculum is taught in a group setting. In addition to group 12 ÷ CARDINAL McCLOSKEY COMMUNITY SERVICES training, one on one sessions take place to specifically target areas of interest, need, potential and growth. Training and responsibilities include proper hygiene and attire, budgeting, managing schedules for prompt attendance at work and learning to abide by employer policies and procedures. CMCS has a network of employers who participate in our Supportive Employment Program and work in conjunction with our Job Coaches. The Job Developer at CMCS is responsible for identifying potential employers who have the ability to provide a supportive work environment. Many of our individuals qualify for “work tryout”, in which NY State may provide the employer with financial incentives. It is the job developer’s responsibility to present and fully explain these options to employers, in order to maximize potential job opportunities. APPLIED BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS CMCS is at the forefront of groundbreaking work with adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. In partnership with families, we developed and implemented one of the first integrated adult residential and day programs in New York State which uses an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) model. Behavior analysis focuses on the principles that explain how learning takes place. Through decades of research, the field of behavior analysis has developed many techniques for increasing useful behaviors and reducing those that may cause harm or interfere with learning. ABA is the use of these techniques and principles to bring about meaningful and positive change in behavior. As a result of using this ABA residential and day model, we have seen great strides and improvement in the adults with ASD entrusted to our care. These young adults with ASD continue to make breakthroughs such as learning to express themselves in full sentences with an IPAD, learning employment skills to work in the community, and learning daily living skills to become more independent in the supported homes managed by CMCS in which they live. This ABA technique is funded entirely through private donations and demonstrates the kind of innovation that is possible when private funding partnerships are secured and leveraged. The success of the ABA treatment program has resulted in incorporating this treatment model throughout out services for persons with developmental disabilities. • EARLY CHILDHOOD SERVICES EARLY CHILDHOOD SERVICES Since 1973, CMCS’s Family Child Care has provided services for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years old in the Bronx. Over the years we have grown in order to respond to increased community needs. By doing so, CMCS has become an integral part of these communities, serving those children and families in need. In 2009, Little Angels Head Start became a subsidiary of CMCS. This program served children ages 2 – 4 years old and in 2013 Little Angels Head Start merged with CMCS to continue to serve children ages 2 – 5 years old. The merger includes children 6 weeks to 12 years old and includes the following programs: Family Child Care, Federal Funded Head Start, Administration for Children Services-Early Learn and Universal Pre-Kindergarten. Today, our Early Childhood Education Division (ECED) serves over 2,000 children and families in the Bronx and Manhattan. The overall goal of each of these programs is to provide early childhood educational programs and support in communities that have been severely underserved, to the detriment of the children in these neighborhoods. These programs focus on educational support along with offering a much wider range of support such as health, nutrition, mental health, medical, family engagement and involvement and programs for fathers that strengthen and encourage their role as knowledgeable caregivers to their children. ECED also offers programs for children with special needs and provides assistance to the parents so they can obtain all resources available to their children and families. The CMCS ECE Division (ECED) provides services under three Program groups; Head Start, in conjunction with the Office of Administration for Children and Families , the state funded Universal Pre-Kindergarten in partnership with the NYC Department of Education and Early Learn New York City (ELNYC), including Center Based full day and Family Child Care, which is one of the largest Family Childcare networks in NYC. HEAD START Home Based — Head Start is a free program for families that qualify; eligibility is based on a diagnosis of special needs or medical fragility and it is federally funded. Priority is given to families experiencing homelessness, receiving Cash Assistance, and who have children in foster care. It is a unique program for children ages 3 – 4 years old. Currently, Home Based serves children with special needs or who are medically fragile who may not normally find success in a Center Based program. Children and Parents receive home instruction for 90 minutes every week and, additionally, twice a month families participate in group sessions to enhance socialization skills. Center Based — We have multiple sites throughout the Bronx which serves children 3 – 4 years old. Goals for the children include cultivating positive self-esteem, development of fine and gross motor skills and the development of strong socioemotional skills while building strong relationships with peers. The program also encourages an interest and love of reading, the arts, natural sciences, and the world around them. Additionally, our program helps develop multi-faceted language skills via conversations, interactive activities, visual aids, and dramatic play while embracing diversity in the classroom and in the community. Children engage in handson learning through daily activities and trips and technology is used to enhance children’s learning. We provide health and nutrition services. Our highly qualified staff consists of Group Teachers who have New York State Teacher Certification (Birth through 2nd Grade) and Assistant Teachers have a Child Development Associate (CDA) or an Associate Degree in Early Childhood Education. Family engagement is encouraged with families setting goals and partnering with community based organizations to reach these goals. UNIVERSAL PRE-KINDERGARTEN (UPK) Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) believes that all children throughout New York State deserve the opportunity to attend a high quality pre-kindergarten program. The program is funded by the Department of Education and is free to all families of children who are four years old. Currently, ECE is funded for 234 four year old children as a 10 month program (September – June) and operates both full and half day programs Monday through Friday in all 9 Centers within the Bronx and Manhattan. EARLY LEARN NEW YORK CITY (ELNYC) ELNYC — Center Based is a program that recognizes that early childhood programs play a critical role in supporting young children’s development, learning and preparation for both school and life success. This program currently serves 159 children ages 2 – 4 years old. It is a year round program that operates 8:00am to 6:00pm, Monday through Friday in two centers in the Bronx and Manhattan. ELNYC – Family Child Care (FCC) is a program that seeks to strengthen family life and maintain children in a healthy, safe and educational environment with nutritious food and multiple creative techniques for development and success. This program serves over 1,000 children ages 6 to 12 years old in ACS/EL funded and private pay programs. It is a year round program that operates 8:00am to 6:00pm, Monday through Friday. The program has 140 Licensed Home Providers in the Bronx. • 2012/13 — 2013/14 BIENNIAL REPORT • 13 DONOR LISTINGS Cardinal McCloskey Community Services thanks all of our generous supporters and gratefully acknowledges their contributions.

In an effort to make it even easier for you to make a gift, we have several methods for you to help CMCS continue its life-changing work. You can make your tax-deductible contribution to CMCS in any of the following ways: CHECK: Please make your check payable to Cardinal McCloskey Community Services and mail it to us in the enclosed envelope. CREDIT CARDS: We accept American Express, Visa, and MasterCard. Please fill out the enclosed envelope, contact us by phone or visit our secure website: www.cmcs.org MATCHING GIFTS: You can double your gift to CMCS if you or your spouse, work for an organization with a Matching Gift Program. REAL ESTATE: Gifts of personal residence can also be made with a retained life estate. The retained life estate allows the donor or a designee of the donor to live in their home for rest of their life. After that time, the real estate is owned out right by CMCS, without the complications of probate proceedings. This gift allows the donor to receive current income tax deductions for the discounted value of the property. IRA DISTRIBUTION: For those who are 70 ½ years or older, you can make a distribution from your IRA to CMCS for up to $100,000 without reporting the withdrawal as taxable income. SECURITIES: You can avoid capital gains tax on securities held long-term and provide an income tax deduction equal to the fair market value at the date of transfer. To transfer securities to CMCS please provide your broker with the following information: • Account Name: Cardinal McCloskey School and Home for Children; Account #: Y1 13273; UBS Financial: DTC# 0221. • Once you transfer securities, please contact Christina Camardella at (914) 9978000 ext 151 or [email protected] notifying her of the date and time of the transfer so that she may relay that information to our broker. Thank you for your generous support. We could not continue our life-changing work without your help!
