“Many of our youth come to
us angry, bitter, frowning…
and leave laughing, smiling,
and joking!”
Hello, I’m
James
“My vision for St. Vincent is to
Hello,
identify ways to partner with
local institutions to facilitate
I’m Marco
vocational training for youth.”
2014
Financials
Q: What drives your desire to help the youth at SVHC?
I recognize the obstacles to success for the at-risk youth
we serve. I want to break down the obstacles and create
an intimate atmosphere for employees who love their
job, believe in our mission, and most importantly see the
changes in the youth’s behavior, and smiles on their faces
when they experience being treated with love.
Q: What challenges do you see the youth we serve
struggling with the most? How does SVHC help?
Our kids’ challenges consist of alcohol and drug abuse,
James Dempsey, Clinicial Director
poor family relationships, gang violence, homelessness,
trauma, and abuse. We help the youth who come to us by
teaching them healthy alternatives such as using coping skills, and anger management,
identifying triggers to behaviors, and improving self-esteem. We lead by example and
show the kids what love really is.
Q: In what ways will we continue to evolve our programs in 2015?
We are launching an intensive outpatient substance abuse treatment program –LifeRECOVER
to address substance abuse in St. Louis youth. At St. Vincent, we show them healthy
alternatives to abusing drugs and alcohol, resorting, to violence, or theft. We are a safe haven,
providing them with love as well as shelter, food, and other basic necessities.
Hi, I’m
Tiffany
Tiffany Charles, Board Member
Q: What do you see for the vision of St. Vincent's?
My vision for St. Vincent is to identify ways in which
to partner to facilitate vocational training for youth.
I also envision St. Vincent as an organization with
an improved profile. The area in which it's located is
currently being improved through civic development.
This development should organically result in more
patronage of area establishments and a diversifying
of the area's consumer base.

Q: Why do you choose St. Vincent’s to volunteer?
I think St. Vincent Home for Children is an
outstanding organization with a powerful mission.
St. Vincent provides the tools and services to help
young people who are facing difficult circumstances
excel regardless of the obstacles they face.
Q: What do you see for the vision of St. Vincent’s?
Since 1850 St. Vincent Home for Children has been
a safe haven in the community for children in need
and I think that will continue to be our driving force.
To stay relevant and meet the community’s needs in
changing times, we will have to adapt our services
to evolve with the children and families we serve.
Q: Why are relationships between for-profit business and non-profit organizations
important to our community?
I believe “community” is bigger than any zip code or neighborhood. When leaders from
for-profit businesses bring their experience, insight, and connections to nonprofit organizations
it can help the nonprofit tighten operations, think more strategically, and ultimately yield
better results.

Q: Please tell me about a life-changing moment you
have witnessed at St. Vincent.
In February, 2014, I presented one of the youth residents
with a used keyboard because she had voiced her
interest in continuing her pursuit of music. A creative outlet can be therapeutic, calming,
and mentally stimulating; and I wanted to afford the young lady that opportunity.
Marco Fields, United States
Coast Guard Volunteer Leader
In 2014, we provided the LifeFOCUS Program to more than 300 youth.
Acting as a safe haven for youth and families in crisis, we provided
basic necessities like food, clothing, shelter, and personal hygiene
items. Plus, we offered life-impacting counseling services mingled
with recreational activities to help bring balance to the lives of kids
who face lots of challenges. We also taught healthy alternatives for
handling stress, increasing coping skills and coaching for anger
management.
InHomeFOCUS
This year, we often had the opportunity to work with a child and his
family in the home BEFORE the situation escalated and a temporary
shelter was required. We met the child and family on their turf and
began the work needed to amend a challenging situation. For kids
from 8-21, InHomeFOCUS offered three to four months of significant
in-home therapy designed to address not only the child’s personal
challenges but also the difficulties that can arise from often dysfunctional family dynamics. Lives were changed through InHomeFOCUS!
The keyboard was collecting dust at my place. I thought nothing of the gesture – I just
offering a gift for a young girl who I assumed would enjoy it. But her response changed
my perception…especially for someone who's not accustomed to being treated in such
way without the expectation of something in return. It was then that I realized the power of
exceeding a young person's expectations and how that can encourage them to do the same
for someone else.
