NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSE ASSOCIATION / 2008 ANNUAL REPORT
Chair’s Report
Neighborhood House Association really exists because of its partnerships with the community, including:
(1) Western Reserve Area on Aging Agency who supplies the funding for
the Senior Nutrition program. Thanks to this partnership, 164,000 senior
meals were served in 2008.
(2) Lorain County Job and Family Services that provides funds for the
three child care centers and for the Haven Center.
(3) Horizon Child Care Consortium which provides NHA state funding of
the (ELI) Early Learning Initiative of the Pre-School program.
Carolyn Falasco
Chair of the Board
2008 was certainly a good year for NHA. Through Mike Mayse’s leadership and a dedicated staff, NHA managed for a third year in a row to attain
an unrestricted balanced budget. This puts the agency in line to completely
eliminate the accumulated deficit this year.
NHA expanded its childcare to include infants at the City View Center
and the Elyria Neighborhood Child Care Center. The three child care
centers attained a Step-Up to Quality Star Rating.
NHA’s Haven Center certainly has made progress as well, providing
over 17,258 nights of service in 2008 (based on occupancy). It expanded
its kitchen, hired a cook and developed partnerships with local churches
and groups to assist in food service in the new kitchen. Haven also
benefitted from a new Outdoor Program Shelter completed as a class
project by Leadership Lorain County.
The Help Me Grow program served over 490 families in 2008 by
providing early intervention, child assessment and referral services. The
team’s diligent efforts made NHA the leading Help Me Grow provider in
Lorain County.
The Oberlin Senior Center in 2008 received a bequest from the Wade
Hauller estate. The Center was able to completely redo its dining room,
kitchen and laundry facilities. Oberlin Senior Center Director, Ruth Kreiner,
brought new programming to the Center. The programs concentrate on
the transitional needs of the seniors by assisting with health referrals,
consumer fraud issues and life changing issues. Ruth and her NHA team
at the Oberlin Center kept 35 seniors independent in their own homes.
Total programming resulted in 456 seniors receiving services in 2008.
These are impressive statistics!! And it is even more impressive to
recognize that ALL of NHA’s programs are doing well and meeting the
communities’ needs. Again, visible signs of NHA’s partnerships in action.
All of these accomplishments are only possible because of the partnerships in place coupled with the NHA staff that works hard every day to get
the job done, a great group of volunteers, and a dedicated board; all
sharing the vision of meeting the communities’ needs.

NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSE ASSOCIATION / 2008 ANNUAL REPORT
A Letter to the Community
from the President & CEO
Dear Neighbor,
2008 was a great year. NHA had a balanced budget, paid off old debt,
moved into the St. Joseph Community Center and started a strategic
plan just to name a few positives.
But, the reality is that today the world is upside down, Lorain County
has 11% unemployment and climbing, government funding changes
daily as the State of Ohio’s budget comes down to wire for the next
biennium. Programs administered by Job and Family Services are now
at the Department of Education. “Shovel Ready” has become a new
addition to our lexicon as NHA and other nonprofits try to tap into the
Economic Stimulus package at the Federal Level. It’s sort of like trying
to follow the rainbow to a mythical Pot of Gold. Lots of twists and turns
and just out of reach. I find myself wishing for my very own federallyissued Leprechaun.
This is our world today, changing quickly, and NHA is ready to meet
the challenge. New funding streams, new program locations, new requirements for funding in a down economy. These things fill the media everyday.
But, more importantly NHA is dedicated volunteers and a board of
directors who are engaged in making NHA a viable, well managed, well
funded nonprofit even in these turbulent times.
NHA will face many more challenges in this ever-changing world and
we are prepared and have the resources to make good decisions. Our
newly completed Strategic Plan included two focus groups, an internet
survey and a key informant phone interviews with 10 of our key funders.
This process concentrated on what is NHA’s identity in the community;
it helped define who we are.
We are our five community centers. We are the face of homelessness in Lorain County. We are helping children and families understand
developmental delays. We are three quality state inspected childcare
centers with Star Ratings. We are 80 employees who are there for their
clients every day. We are a helping hand and a warm meal delivered
daily to seniors. We are where families and seniors come to be safe and
to become engaged in their community. We are Neighborhood House
Association.
Sincerely,
4

Developmental Youth Services
Child Care
A Child Care Success Story
Building on our strengths and evaluating our
weaknesses has allowed us to maintain three well
recognized childcare centers. By optimizing our
opportunities, we have continued and have created
new collaborations. We have taken advantage of
many new opportunities throughout the year.
Through Ohio’s Step-Up-To-Quality program,
two of our sites received their One Star Rating in
June of 2008. This program is a state-wide initiative
that identifies sites as having quality above Ohio’s
state licensing standards The Quality Achievement
Awards assisted the sites with program improvements and classroom materials. Through acquisition
of a grant, both NHA preschool programs in Lorain
and our ELI collaborative partners participate in
educational fieldtrips provided through Cleveland’s
University Circle. NHA will be expanding by adding infant care at two of our three sites. This will
bring added revenue. With the expansion, NHA will
offer full child care service to families with children
ages 6 weeks to 12 years of age. NHA Child Care
Centers provided service to 372 children during the
2008 year.
One of NHA’s strengths has always been the
ability to find collaborations that will best meet
our needs and the needs of the community. Our
strengths continue to grow as we serve more
families in our community.
The Do Something
Club is fun, free,
and an easy way for
the children in our
Child Care programs
to be introduced to
volunteering and community service. This national
online program offers all the necessary information;
guidelines, advice, project planning, a webpage and
even mini-grants! All that is needed is a commitment from five youth to “Do Something!” that will
make a difference in the lives of others.
Mildred Bond Child Care center began their Do
Something Club in late November 2008. The 5
members meet monthly for “Roundtable Discussions”. The group is responsible for tracking their
volunteer time, log of their Do Something action,
group project and recruitment of new members.
Upcoming, the group will vote on a “tag line” and
begin creating their webpage for the Do Something
site.
The members also are registered for the
President’s Volunteer Service Award, individually
and as a group. This nationally recognized award is
given in levels (bronze, silver, gold and lifetime) and
based on age and volunteer hours. As an official
certifying agency, NHA is proud to be able to offer
this incentive to their newest volunteers – the Do
Something Club! Elyria Neighborhood Child Care
Center and our City View Child Care Center will
also be joining the Do Something Club soon.

Summer Camp
NHA 13th Annual Christmas for Kids
Summer Camp programs provide a safe environment and guide young people in their formative
years. They emphasize citizenship, tolerance,
educational and recreational programming and
physical fitness. Character development and having
fun are major goals, too.
Neighborhood House Association’s 2008 Summer Camp program served over 156 boys and girls
ages 6 to 12 years, providing a structured, learning
environment during the summer months. Using the
theme of “Summer Olympics” campers and teachers learned about other countries, cultures, and
celebrations. The children developed goal
setting skills and how to fulfill them and their
dreams. In addition, campers had “park days”
twice a week and practiced Olympic events,
including swimming at the local pool. The grand
finale at the end of Summer Camp was a day of
Olympic events, stressing sportsmanship, that was
filled with ribbons, laughter and fun!
This year saw a dramatic increase in families
requesting sponsors for their children through
Christmas for Kids. Thanks to the overwhelming
support of our community, Neighborhood House
Association (NHA) successfully matched all 555
children with sponsors in 2008 for our 13th year of
Christmas for Kids!
De Luca’s Place in the Park was packed with
over 300 guests at the annual Christmas party. Santa
made his appearance and with the help of volunteers, handed out Christmas stockings to everyone
in attendance. Each Christmas stocking was handmade as part of a collaborative community volunteer
project (over 200 volunteers!) Volunteers cut and
stitched the stockings from donated fabrics, local
businesses and individuals donated the stuffers!
Before dinner (which was served by the NHA
Board of Directors and other volunteers) the children enjoyed face painting, Mr. Bill Magician and
the unique entertaining of “2 Gals and a
Guitar” while having their photo snapped with
Santa.

Help Me Grow®
2008 Help Me Grow Statistics
During 2008, Help Me Grow® (HMG) provided
7,016 units of service to children in Lorain County.
Help Me Grow enrollment increased with
participation at 275 children each month. Over 400
referrals were received. More than 100 children
were referred to Lorain County Board MR/DD for
further evaluation, due to suspected delays identified by HMG Service Coordinators. Our service coordinators transitioned approximately 60 children as
they reached three years of age and exited HMG,
most to local preschool programs and Head Start.
All HMG staff were certified as Parent Educators with
the Parents As Teachers program. Staff completed
implementation of the curriculum into home visits,
enhancing the quality of our services, and providing
families with a home visit experience filled with
child development information, parent-child
activities and parenting tools to use in their everyday lives. As staff
worked to provide
extended services to
children with health
concerns and developmental delays, they
continued to build
relationships through
out the
community. Service Coordinators worked closely
with area mental health agencies, shelters,
drug/alcohol treatment facilities, school districts,
doctors, hospitals and social service providers.
Help Me Grow participated in United Way’s “Day
of Caring,” resulting in a very successful collaboration
with Lorain County Community College. HMG was
able to distribute more than 35 Welcome Home
Baby Baskets with items collected by LCCC staff
and students. Help Me Grow continued to work
close with Lorain County Children Services in
providing parenting support and child development
services to families affected by child abuse and
neglect.

Senior Nutrition
The Neighborhood House Association Senior
Nutrition Program serves nutritious meals to
seniors who are predominately low income and
disabled. NHA started providing meals to seniors
in 1967 at Kennedy Plaza and has provided them
continuously since then.
During 2008, our meals program moved to the
cafeteria and kitchen at the St. Joseph Community
Center in Lorain. The new expanded facilities led to
greater efficiencies and savings for the program and
a third Hot Shot delivery vehicle was purchased for
our Home delivered meals program. In November,
the cafeteria opened for breakfast and lunch.
In 2008, in our various Senior Nutrition Programs
including Home Delivered, Passport and Congregate,
we served over 650 hot meals daily and over 850
meals every Friday to our Passport clients.
PASSPORT is a Medicaid waiver program that
provides a range of services to qualified, frail older
persons in imminent danger of institutionalization.
PASSPORT Meals is a segment of the Home
Delivered Meals program and NHA is the only
Passport Provider in Lorain County.
The need for home delivered meals to senior
citizens in Lorain County has been established by not
only health professionals but by social service agencies
as well. Without the home delivered meals, the vast
majority of these seniors would not be receiving the
proper nutrition that they need. It is safe to say that an
outcome of this much needed program is improved
nutritional intake. For many of the home delivered
customers, our drivers may be the only human contact
that they may get in a given day. Our drivers are trained
to be aware of the surroundings when delivering a meal
to our senior citizens. We look for anything unusual and
report any concerns at the time of the delivery.
• 80% of the regular Home Delivered and Congregate
Meal participants express satisfaction with the
quality of the food they receive on Quarterly Service
Satisfaction Surveys.
• 80% of the regular Home Delivered Meal and
Congregate Meal participants will express that their
overall health has remained the same or has
improved from the previous year.
• All meals prepared in our kitchen facilities will have
a Dietician approved minimum of 33-1/3% the Daily
Nutrition requirements.
• All meals will be prepared and delivered according
to the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points
(HACCP) process.

Haven Center Emergency Shelter
2008 Haven Center Statistics
Haven Center
The Haven Center Emergency Shelter provided
basic needs for 472 men, women and children
in 2008, a total of 17,258 nights of shelter, even
though we were forced to hold the occupancy
down to 30 beds a night for three months due to
funding shortages. Ninety-five children were part
of the 472 participants that were provided shelter,
meals, showers, laundry, bus tickets and much
more.
All participants were financially unable to find
and maintain affordable housing even while working.
Some may have been recently hospitalized for
psychiatric reasons and
have no residence to
return to after discharge.
Many of our participants
have substance abuse
problems, which may
need treatment. Others
have little education, unidentified learning
disorders and poor
physical health.
The Haven Center also
completed a kitchen and
moved refrigeration to
open up office space and added computers for
internet use to apply for employment. We started
the transition from wooden bed frames to metal
beds. A job club was started in the shelter to assist
participants in their search for work, operated by
Gerald Evans and Dana Burns of the First Community
Interfaith Institute of Ohio. They also provide Anger
Management Meetings. A Nord Shelter Liaison is
available and AA meetings are conducted twice
weekly. The Haven Center provides emergency
rent assistance to the community and
Housing Service Program intakes for security
deposits and first month rent to those who qualify.
As funds were available we also assisted participants with financial support to replace birth certificates, I.D.’s and prescriptions.

Oberlin Senior Center
The Oberlin Senior
Center of Neighborhood
House Association remains
the primary social service organization serving the
senior population in the City of Oberlin and surrounding area. Oberlin is home to an interesting
and diverse senior population of differing racial,
economic, religious, and ethnic backgrounds, who
come together at the Center to access its wide
array of services and programs. In 2008, the
Senior Center participants were 30% minority,
38% low-income (according to those who replied
to the question), and 51% age 71+.
The total units of support/social work assistance
were 821, up from 583 units in 2007. A unit is measured by the number of contacts with a
participant throughout the year. Social work
assistance informed and connected seniors with
Medicare programs, low income entitlement
programs, and provided one-on-one support to
seniors and family members dealing with housing,
homecare, health, and personal issues. When
appropriate, referrals were made to Adult Protective
Services and other agencies to help seniors deal
with depression, thoughts of suicide, abuse, homelessness and domestic violence. In 2008, nurses
from the Lorain County Health Department,
provided services to over 650 seniors at the Center.
The Homemaker Program brought weekly or
bi-monthly services to qualified elderly households
and enabled seniors to continue living independently
in their own homes. An individual assessment led
to a customized service plan for each participant. In
2008, 39 seniors received 1,652 hours of in-home
cleaning services.
In 2008, total units of socialization programs for
all senior citizens were 9,390. This reflects an
increase of 62% from 2007. The programs provided
opportunities for older adults to come together and
participate in activities that were designed to
stimulate mental and/or physical well-being.
Planned activities such as loom and needles
weaving, line-dance, bridge, walking, quilting,
bowling, and handi-helpers met weekly. Monthly
activities included bingo, breakfasts, birthday
parties, night-out gang, and trips. Thanks to
continued financial support from the New Russia
Township Trustees, we took 11 “Explore Ohio“
trips to places such as Tiffin, Akron, Cleveland,
Mansfield, and Millersburg. We saw two
Cleveland Indians baseball games, took a boat
cruise on the Nautica Queen, visited the Warther
museum, Carousel Dinner Theatre, Ohio Bird
Sanctuary, and Renaissance Theatre, just to name
a few. The Lorain County Metro Parks provided
two additional trips to county attractions. Many
programs and presentations were given throughout
the year on topics relevant to seniors.
Dedicated senior volunteers gave hundreds of
hours of their time and expertise teaching bridge,
line dancing, bowling quilting, and so much more.
The office staff and Advisory Board are also made
up of dedicated volunteers. Our motto is “Friends
Caring And Sharing.”

3rd annual Walk for the Homeless
NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSE ASSOCIATION
On May 9, 2008 more than 300 came out to
support the Neighborhood House Association’s
3rd annual Walk for the Homeless hosted by
Lorain County Community College. The community
helped raise more than $46,000 to support Haven
Center, Lorain County’s only 24/7 year-round
homeless shelter. This support is vital to the
continuation of homeless services in Lorain County.
More than 450 individuals are homeless every
night in Lorain County alone. And the average age
of a homeless person is only 5 years old! In 2008,
we provided almost 20,000 nights of service or, as
we like to say: 20,000 heads hit our beds.
