Quality Lives
for People with

Letter from the President & Chairman of the board
R
ichmond Community
Services, like so many
other organizations over
the last year, was hard hit
by the twin challenges
of rising demand for
our services and reduced resources
caused by state budget cuts and
economic uncertainty. Having
weathered many challenges during
our 38 year history, Richmond is no
stranger to adversity.
In conjunction with our
dedicated staff, innovative lifeenhancing strategies, education
and advocacy, and home-like
residences, we strive to maximize
each person’s quality of life, and
provide support and peace of mind
for their families.
In these pages you will read of
the many accomplishments we
achieved last year in spite of the
obstacles we have faced.
Our vision remains clear and
focused on the future. With
the continued support of our
community, staff, board, families
and volunteers, we will serve the
lifelong needs of individuals with
multiple disabilities and complex
issues.

Community Outreach
A new community outreach
initiative launched through
the generous support of the
Sarma family and TD Bank has
significantly enriched the lives
of individuals in our programs.
In a relatively short period of
time the Community Relations
program strengthened links
with community members,
corporations, senior centers, schools, and religious, cultural and civic
organizations by creating a bridge connecting the people Richmond
supports and the community. Their volunteer involvement in cultural
events, therapeutic recreation activities, and special programs has
provided fun, skill development and joy to the adults and children in
our programs.
One example of this Richmond/Community partnership was the
Richmond Pumpkin Patch Project, the result of the community
bringing the pumpkin patch to them, making pumpkin picking
accessible. Twenty-four teenaged volunteers helped individuals with
developmental disabilities pick out pumpkins and carve them.
Individuals and groups have also been a tremendous asset in nonclinical activities such as administration and special events, in which they
provided expertise in photography, writing and organizational support.

2010 ACHIEVEMENTS
Community Support
Thanks to the support of our generous donors and funders,
Richmond Community Services was able to fill the gaps between
what Medicaid pays for our therapeutic programs and what is truly
needed in order for adults and children with significant intellectual and
physical disabilities to lead the most healthy, full and productive lives
possible. The organization scoured foundations and sought individual
donors to fund the projects we need to improve the quality of life for
our individuals. We were successful in funding a number of important
initiatives, allowing us to remain on target with our plans.
In the face of a weak economy, Richmond was successful in
obtaining support for our unfunded, underfunded and innovative pilot
programs from foundations, major gifts and individual contributions.
Attendance and support for our exciting fundraising events, which
include Funfest, Give Through Golf Outing and Wine Tasting & Auction
was at an all-time high. We are grateful to our voluntary board, event
leadership and members of our staff for making this possible.

A New Collaboration Brings Groundbreaking Results
Through a collaboration of our Community Outreach and
Therapeutic Recreation programs, Richmond dramatically increased
the number of opportunities for the people we support to participate
in community outings and therapeutic activities such as music and art
therapy. Volunteer support is essential for the Therapeutic Recreation
program to implement the many activities it has dreamed of offering —
such as concerts, performances from Lincoln Center and most notably
our successful Buddy Program.
This growing partnership was evident during Funfest last year
with Richmond’s first “Buddy for the Day” program. Since over 100
of the people we support did not have a family member available to
participate, we created a way for these residents to have someone to
share the day with. Since then “Buddy for the Day” has become a yearround program in which volunteers share quality one-on-one time with
individual residents on a regular basis and residents are enriched by
the priceless gift of companionship.
The partnership between Community Outreach and Therapeutic
Recreation has worked well in creating performances, holiday events
and recreational activities that could not have existed without the
support of volunteers from the community.

Therapeutic Recreation
In 2010 the Therapeutic Recreation team reorganized its physical
therapy and rehabilitation program to enhance clinical outcomes and
better meet the needs of the individuals in our programs. As a result,
the Therapeutic Recreation team was able to provide many more
activities and opportunities for skill development, stimulation and joy
to the people we support.
Imagine the thrill of going on a camping trip
for the first time, of being able to participate in a
musical program, express yourself through dance
movement and art therapy, or to going to your first
baseball game. Recreational activities like these are
therapeutic in nature, and with the addition of new
staff and volunteers, Richmond doubled the number of
professionals in this area.
The new rehabilitation team focused on recognizing
the needs and capabilities of each individual, and
building on those abilities. Therapists have been working
in small groups, assisted by volunteers, to provide music,
art and dance movement therapy. Medical massage
therapy was added to relieve stiffness and increase
ranges of motion and sensory tolerability, in addition
to its soothing effect. The lives of 175 individuals have
brightened from the physical and emotional benefits of
self-expression through these programs.

Capital Improvements: A Public-Private Partnership
Creating homes in the community for people with
complex health needs, many of whom use wheelchairs
for all their movement from place to place, is a daunting
challenge in today’s economy. Existing houses have to be
redesigned and then carefully reconstructed. Interiors must
be appropriately equipped and furnished so that the house is
truly an accessible home. Sinks with lower access, microwaves
and countertops at the right level, all enhance the environment
and make people with developmental disabilities more independent.
It makes it possible for residents to participate fully in the activities of
daily living, from enjoying a warm bath to preparing a meal.
In 2010 Richmond opened Donald Lane, a new home for six people
with developmental disabilities, and began work on two more homes
in various Westchester communities. It was all due to the dedication
of families and friends, Richmond employees, donors like David
Wichs, who contributed $18,000 to the renovations, our attentive
builder, Fierro Contracting, local governmental officials, and the
outstanding work of our state Developmental Disability Services Office
(DDSO). This public-private partnership is ensuring that people with
developmental disabilities live safely, freely and happily.
The six new residents of Donald Lane House, located in Ossining,
participated in the community garden, the town fair, and community
center activities, quickly integrating into the community. Outings to
the movies, restaurants, the park and mall have become a part of their
weekly schedule.
Another exciting therapeutic enhancement is the Goldman
Playscape, an outdoor recreation area that is accessible to the six
men and women with medical fragility who live at Goldman House
in Bedford, and their families. In an example of philanthropy as an
organization-wide value, fundraising for this project was initiated by
the staff of Richmond Community Services. Liz Donaldson, Manager
of Goldman House, took the initiative and organized two benefit
rock concerts performed by Jon Moses and The Saw Mill River
Band, which raised the initial funds. The generosity continued with
a grant from the Slater Jett Meyers Foundation for the purchase of
adaptive recreational equipment; Richard Pugni and Sons donated
their construction services and materials for a covered picnic area
and wheelchair level planter boxes; and Tom Williamson Landscaping
contributed the landscape design, plants and installation.
The residents of Goldman House now enjoy participating in
accessible outdoor activities together with their families.
With the completion of the Bedroom Fit for Me project at our
919 North Broadway residence, natural sunlight now fills curtained
rooms, cheerful rugs rest on new wood laminate floors, and a display
of family photographs and artwork cover the walls and furnishings.

bedrooms were designed to create a more

to a $10,000 matching gift from the Austin
Community Foundation.
Another update to our 919 residence gives
direct care professionals a room where they can
take a much deserved break in comfort and privacy.
Generously funded with a gift from the Sarma family,
the new Staff Lounge is a tranquil space for staff to rest,
watch TV, use the computer, and relax or read.
Richmond’s newest initiative is to create a spacious multi-purpose
recreation and activity center in our 919 North Broadway residence.
This spacious wheelchair accessible environment will be equipped
with a kitchen, bathroom facility, private changing areas and specially
designed tables and seating where people can gather and participate
in a wide range of activities, where families can visit with their loved
ones – outside of their individual rooms. It will provide residents with
a variety of recreational and therapeutic activities in which they can
improve their communication skills, build skills for daily living, and
maximize the use of all five senses. Richmond was thrilled to receive
lead gifts from family member and Foundation Board member, Ravi
Sarma in the amount of $65,000 and from David Wichs for $18,000, in
addition to additional support from Michael Baer and Fund the Future
donors who contributed at our golf event.
Assistive Technology
With use of a communication device Adam was able to answer the
phone. Glenn could walk upright with use of a gait trainer and view
the world from a different angle. Selena burst into a huge grin when
she was able to use the adaptive switch for the blender in the kitchen
and turn on the light in her room. Assistive technology gives people
with developmental disabilities the ability to control their environment,
making them more independent. Appliances that operate from remote
control touch switches put the resident in control and communications
device that generate speech allow individuals with limited verbal skills
to express their needs and feelings.
Our goal is to create a climate that nurtures and supports individuals
with multiple disabilities to use assistive technology devices
and adaptive equipment to communicate and interact with
their environment and participate more fully and independently
in everyday activities. We are grateful to John H. & Ethel G.
Noble Charitable Trust for funding the purchase of assistive
technology equipment and devices and providing intensive
training to key staff at select residences, as well as the
Thomas and Agnes Carvel Foundation’s generous grant for
wheelchair repairs and maintenance. We also thank the Hacket
Foundation and Operation Santa Claus for their support.

A Mother’s story
D
ebbie Linen was so dangerously close to losing her life at the time
she gave birth to her son Myles that doctors didn’t know whether
she would make it or not. Debbie did survive, and she gave birth to
a beautiful baby boy born with significant physical and intellectual
disabilities. It would be a long road for both of them.
The social worker at Myles’ school became worried that the
stress of providing for her family while caring for Myles was becoming another threat to Debbie’s life. Even though Debbie did not trust anyone
else to care for him, she decided to give Respite Care a try. That is when she and
Myles were introduced to Richmond Community Services.
“I faced so many challenges raising a child with a complex disability and other
serious health issues,” Debbie recalls. “I discovered that Richmond was the most
wonderful place. I
saw children going
on recreational trips
and involved in activities I couldn’t provide
for Myles. Richmond
had so much to offer
him. I thought long
and hard, and decided to sign up for
placement.” That was
ten years ago, when
Myles was six.
“One day I came to
visit and Myles was in
a music class. I saw
how much he was enjoying himself. He got
involved in everything
– Cub Scouts, Saturday baseball, trips
Debbie Linen
to professional games, and more. With all the wonderful things he
with her son
was doing, there was no way I would take him back.
Myles and
“I soon became part of an excellent team of staff, doctors, social daughter Ishyra.
workers and other specialists. They are very supportive and let
me know that my decisions count. The results have been amazing.
Myles is sitting up much better now and his quality of life has so
improved. He is very happy; he loves the staff, the trips he goes on
and the activities in which he participates. Seeing his bright smile
makes it all worth it.”
Today Debbie feels blessed that Myles is cared for by such loving
people who are warm and passionate about the needs of the residents, and by the dedication, commitment, hard work, and continued efforts of Richmond’s professionals to enhance their lives.

2011 boards of directors
SOLUTION Richmond Community Services Foundation, led by
Joseph Pugni, Jr., is charged with
raising the funds needed
to support our quality
programs in the face of
mounting financial challenges
and cuts to government support.
Through the generosity of our donors
and volunteers, we are able to help individuals with differing abilities to become
as independent and community-involved
as possible, while providing them with
round the clock care in a family-like setting.
We invest in assistive technology
to make activities possible for
individuals who are unable
to utilize customary controls.
