DEAR FRIENDS OF Living
Resources
I
n 2010 Living Resources met and even exceeded the needs of the individuals it served, however, the recessionary
economy and its effects on governmental funding greatly altered the organization’s ability to add new services. The
unmet needs of individuals with disabilities continued to be great, especially among those aging out of special
education and seeking adult services of all types. Securing the private and public funds to address unmet needs will
continue to be a major focus for Living Resources well into the new decade and beyond.
Living Resources continued to make the case for adding newly constructed “smart” houses for individuals who remain
in our care throughout their lives. Fully one-third or 90 residents in our homes and apartments have already been
identified as needing a greater level of care within the next 5 to 10 years. A grant for $650,000 will make it possible to
break ground for the first smart house in 2011, but Living Resources will continue to negotiate for additional homes
until all our aging and medically frail residents are provided with housing that meets their needs.
The College Experience Program at The College of Saint Rose made further progress in preparing young adults for a
future of independence and employment. Seven more Living Resources students completed the two-year program and
proudly received their certificates at the college’s commencement on May 8; there are now 19 graduates of this
important program. Applications for admission to the College Experience Program remained steady as other young
adults from many New York State communities learned about this unique program which includes housing services as
well as academics.
In the past twelve months, Living Resources increased its capacity to serve individuals in several important areas:
Service coordination grew by ten percent, day programs by five percent, and arts and skill building areas by ten
percent. Staffing also increased to 728 full and part time staff. Thirty-eight percent of our employees have been with
us for five years or longer thanks to recruitment and retention programs which encourage longevity; this has provided
a consistency and continuity of care that is always beneficial to those we serve. In 2010, Living Resources also
implemented a new starting wage for direct support professionals throughout the agency.
As our families, friends and community supporters read the 2010 Annual Report, we ask that you remember these
words: Your help is making a difference! We have filled the following pages with stories and pictures representing the
many worthy and life-enhancing changes taking place in the lives of our program participants. These changes are
oftentimes the direct result of private donations and grants which supplement state and federal funding for programs,
room and board, and healthcare services. Many of the program amenities that make our services stand out from all the
rest are thanks in large part to the support of our generous benefactors.
In closing, we want to thank two groups of individuals who play very different but important roles at Living
Resources: our Boards of Directors and the employees who work here. Together, they made it possible for Living
Resources to be named Achievers 2010 Nonprofit of the Year by The Business Review. This award, which annually
recognizes an organization for demonstrating excellence in management and service delivery, belongs to these hard
working and committed individuals and we are personally grateful for their efforts every day of the year.
Sincerely,
Sincerely,
John S. Delaney

“The College
Experience
Program is much
more than
I expected.
I love it here!”
Experience Program A+
P
atrick Kivlen is a 21 year old College Experience
Program (CEP) freshman from Averill Park, New
York. At the time of this interview he was already in
his second semester of The College of Saint Rose/Living
Resources program and couldn’t be more enthusiastic and
energized about his new life. “Even my sister Beth wants
to come to Saint Rose,” he said, “after she gets her
associates degree from Hudson Valley.”
A brain injury survivor from a bicycle accident at age four,
Patrick was living with his parents when his service
coordinator told him he should apply to the CEP. “I
needed this to grow and I knew I didn’t want to live with
my parents forever,” he said. Patrick quickly added that he
loves his parents very much and is grateful for their
encouragement and many years of support. Yet, like all
young men his age, he had personal goals for himself –
college, employment, his own apartment – and dreams for
his future.
Acceptance into the CEP has changed Patrick’s life forever.
“I feel safe here and I love the interaction with the staff
and with my peers.” He added that the first semester,
especially the Portfolio I Class required for all CEP
freshmen, was challenging for him because he had to create
an original power point program demonstrating what he
was learning. The spring semester is going much better for
Patrick who proudly adds that he is able to navigate the
Albany bus system and is learning to cook and try new
foods.
Patrick Kivlen
Perhaps the most surprising aspect of the CEP for Patrick
was how many activities were available to him and his
housemates on campus. In addition to the sports and
fitness facilities, CEP students can join clubs and
participate in college sponsored social events including late
night activities such as the prom. Patrick is a very active
member of the Best Buddies Club. As one of the club’s
directors at the college, he speaks to others who want to
know more about the program which matches individuals
with intellectual disabilities with student volunteers.
Patrick is also looking forward to joining the Student
Events Board next semester which helps plan many of the
college’s extracurricular activities.
INDIVIDUAL INTERESTS DRIVE
Site-Based Day Program
W
aylon Bartlett is a 33 year old young man who
has been a member of the Living Resources Site
Based Day Habilitation Program (SBDH) ever
since Camary Statewide Services merged with us in 2003.
Like many young adults his age, Waylon is looking
forward to having his own apartment some day and
finding a roommate. Having a pet would also be
something he would enjoy, but thoughtfully adds that the
roommate would have to want the pet, too.
Currently Waylon lives in a Living Resources residence and
attends the SBDH five days a week; on weekends he visits
his parents. He is very close to the SBDH staff who are
trained to work with people with a variety of
developmental disabilities. Waylon’s individualized
program plan focuses on lots of physical activity and
volunteer work. He would like to see longer program
days, however, and says there just isn’t enough time to do
all of the things that are planned each day.
“Some day,
I’d like to have
my own
apartment and
maybe even
a pet.”
One of the very unique aspects of the SBDH program is the
way the highly trained staff work hard to teach social skills
and cooperative work skills by using the participants’ own
interests to keep them engaged and learning. Waylon’s love
of electronics is a good example of this. By rebuilding a
stereo he purchased at a thrift shop with staff, Waylon has
learned important money management lessons and how to
make repairs on electronic equipment. He has also
mastered how to load his IPod with 800 songs and how to
use a computer. And, when it comes to his need for regular
physical exercise, Waylon’s choices are always basketball
or bowling.

THIS MESSENGER’S NEWS is
Always Welcomed
enjoys the freedom of moving around the LOB – she
averages between 30 and 40 deliveries a day – and,
after only three months, is looking forward to
expanding her delivery responsibilities to legislative
offices in buildings outside of the LOB and around the
Empire State Plaza.
According to Kevin Kather, director of the Legislative
Messenger Service, Kathy has delivered over 1,600 of
the 80,000 pieces of mail and 90,000 newspapers that
will be distributed in 2011. In addition to expanding
her delivery route, Kevin is also teaching Kathy to use
computers to track prior legislative deliveries, some as
old as two years.
Kathleen Schleich
E
mployment Services program participant
Kathleen Schleich has dedicated her life to
conveying important messages; whether at work
or during her free time, she distributes information
that needs to get to people as quickly as possible. Five
days a week, Kathy can be seen working for the New
York State Senate and Assembly Legislative Messenger
Service at the Legislative Office Building (LOB) in
Albany. Her day starts at 9:00 a.m., but she usually
arrives at work by 7:30 a.m. where she meets some of
the other 25 messengers, also challenged by
developmental disabilities, for breakfast and friendly
conversation about current events.
One of Kathy’s earlier job placements through the
Employment Services program at Living Resources
was as a security guard for 11 years. During those
years, however, she never gave up hope of finding a
job that would give her more benefits such as a
pension. When her job coach Denise Hamedy heard
about the opening at the LOB Messenger Services, she
helped Kathy develop the references and skills needed
for this new job. Since starting in January, Kathy now
When she isn’t working, Kathy is also trained to
deliver information to her community and to young
people. She volunteers with the Clifton Park
Community Emergency Response Team and helps her
community by assisting professionals in the event of a
disaster. She is part of the United States Air Force
Auxiliary Civil Air Patrol at the Stratton Air Base in
Glenville and is a trained Drug Demand Reduction
Officer who teaches young people ages 12–21 how to
respond in situations where alcohol and drug use
threaten to cause harm to self or others. Finally, when
Kathy isn’t working or volunteering she can be found
in her garden or looking into group travel
opportunities. She hopes to go to Ireland and
Germany someday, but for now she needs to keep
working. “Traveling is very expensive,” she added!
THE DAY COMMUNITY OPPORTUNITIES PROGRAM
A County by County Perspective
S
ince 1998, one of the most popular and busy
programs at Living Resources has been the Day
Community Opportunities Program (DCOP).
This community-based day program is an important
transitional program for many adults who may go on
to other services such as Employment Services, the
College Experience Program and even Residential
Services. To best share what the DCOP experience
means to our program participants, Living Resources
interviewed a representative from each of the five
teams; they are Helen Claus, Pasquale Colicchio, Eric
Machiewicz, Ashley Singleton and David Pierce.
With each interview, reccurring themes began to
emerge: the joy of making friends; freedom from
social isolation; the growing of self-esteem from
accomplishment; and, the pleasure of giving back to
one’s community. The structure of the DCOP
deliberately nurtures the awareness of these shared
human experiences at levels that can be understood by
individuals of all abilities. The result is groups of
people, working together, who are happy and proud
of who they are and what they can do for others.
The weekday program is divided into three activity
areas: skill building, recreation and volunteering. The
opportunities to make friends, master new activities
and develop a sense of being a valued member of a
group are limitless. Skill building classes, for
example, provide lessons in cooking, using public
transportation, job interviewing and even dating.
Recreation times, while stressing physical fitness, also
teach self confidence and cultivate life-long interest in
sports such as swimming, golf, tennis and team sports.
The volunteer activities for many of the participants
have led to paid employment in restaurants, local
stores, gyms and offices.
“Friends” was the unanimous answer to the question
about what everyone likes most about the program.
In addition to enjoying each other during program
hours, participants are seeing each other outside of
program at dances, community events and to celebrate
special times like birthdays. Would anyone change the
program in any way? There was only one suggestion
– an even greater emphasis on outdoor activities with
more exercise!
We all have plans for the future and the men and
women of the DCOP are no exception. Some people
are looking for employment or more days at the jobs
they have. Others hope to be able to live on their own
or with a roommate. One of our interviewees longs to
get married someday and even have children. For
today, however, they take much pleasure in pursuing
the activities scheduled for them by the DCOP; as they
build skills and volunteer they know they are getting
closer to achieving their personal goals

2010 Agency Events
T
he 2010 Bishop Howard J. Hubbard Awards Luncheon was
held at the Albany Marriott in April. The honorees were
Community Volunteer Dorothy S. Stevens and Certified Master Chef
Dale Miller. Mrs. Stevens and Chef Miller have a long history of
involvement with Living Resources as donors and enthusiastic
advocates for the work of the organization.

J. Hubbard with 2010 honorees Dorothy S. Stevens and Chef Dale Miller.
T
he College Experience Program, in partnership with The College
of Saint Rose, celebrated its fourth class of graduates in May
2010 bringing the total number of graduates to 19. The purpose of
the program is to prepare young adults to live independently with
confidence, work in competitive employment or to continue to
pursue higher education.
The 2010 CEP graduates include (front) Christina Higgins, Colleen Stasky, (back)
Joseph Riccardi, Joshua Looman, Kevin Archibald, Khaleef Lewis and Jeremy
Bailey.
I
n our never-ending endeavor to replace the loss of government
funding for programs, Living Resources established another
fundraising event – the Living Resources Golf Tournament. The
event was held at the beautiful Orchard Creek Golf Club in
Altamont, New York and garnered rave reviews from the
participants for the wonderful lunch and dinner menus, plentiful
beverages, the stylish golf shirts giveaway and the generous
premium bags. The 2011 tournament, again sponsored by Justin
Spraker and Ameriprise Financial Services, is rumored to be even
better!
Winners of the 2010 Inaugural Golf Tournament Corporate Challenge include
Rick Riccio, Kevin Russell, Scott Kind and Justin Riccio representing A.J.
Gallagher Risk Management Services.
2010 Agency Events
T
he annual Living Resources family picnic took place on
July 16 and hosted almost 600 people. This year, five
jackets were distributed to individuals celebrating 25 years
with Living Resources and eight blankets were given to
individuals who have lived in the residential program for 30
years. About 30% of the individuals who come to us for
residential services have lived in a Living Resources residence
for 25 years or more.
Antoinette Fusco enjoys the
music at the annual picnic.
Fred Erlich presents John Blakelock with a
jacket and 25-year certificate.
A
group of individuals from the Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) program
organized an event to mark Capital District Brain Injury Awareness
Day. What started out as a small picnic for ABI participants turned into
a grand celebration at Tawasentha Park in Guilderland, New York; it
was attended by nearly 300 people who came to share and to get the
latest information about services for individuals with traumatic brain
injuries. The event was so successful that plans for another picnic are
already being made by the individuals who organized the 2010 program.
Members of the brain injury support group were interviewed by Anne Hayden
(center) of the Altamont Enterprise regarding the Brain Injury Awareness Day
at Tawasentha Park.
T
he 20th Annual Culinary Cornucopia was a celebration like none other
in the Capital Region. It was the result of two decades of growth,
experimentation and hard work on the part of hundreds of people who
wanted to truly make a difference in the lives of individuals and families
challenged by developmental disabilities and brain injuries. The event
brought together all of the components of a great party – mouth-watering
menus, great wine pairings, gorgeous surroundings, interesting people and
the excitement of tantalizing auction items – only this party took place on a
much grander scale with over 500 guests. For those who attended the
2010 event, it was a night to remember.

Catherine Stevens recognizing Living Resources for 20 years of dedication to
culinary excellence and education.
2010 Agency Events
T
he After School Program (ASP) once again celebrated the start of the holiday season with a sumptuous turkey
dinner prepared by staff in the agency cafetorium. The 2010 Thanksgiving dinner was the biggest ever with more
than 75 guests.

I
n 2010, Living Resources began the installation of a 40 Kilowatt solar
panel array on the roof of its headquarters in Albany. The panels are
being leased from SunDog Solar as part of a New York State Energy
Research and Development Authority grant initiative for businesses
serving nonprofits, schools and municipalities. SunDog Solar will own
and maintain the panels for twenty years after which Living Resources
will have the option to purchase the equipment. Anticipated savings in
energy costs is estimated to be about one-twelfth of the annual cost for
energy at the 300 Washington Avenue Extension headquarters. The
solar energy project completed in January 2011 is part of the agency’s
focus to find ways to lessen our carbon emissions in areas where we
have programs.

SUSTAINABLE BROADBAND ADOPTION Grant
E
arly in 2010, Living Resources and Catholic
Charities Disabilities Services, in partnership with
applicant Wildwood Programs, Inc. submitted a
federal grant request for a project that would fund a
sustainable broadband adoption initiative, including
equipment and implementation. The total cash value of
the three-year grant to the partners is $845,363 with
in-kind match expenditures valued at $259,000.
The federal stimulus funds were made available by the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) passed
in February 2009 which designated $7.2 billion to expand
broadband adoption in unserved and underserved areas
across the country. The benefits of widespread broadband
usage, while typically supporting economic and investment
growth across the global business world, have many
educational and operational advantages for agencies like
Wildwood, Living Resources and Catholic Charities.
In addition to the purchase of computers with webcams
and microphones and the software that enables video calls,
the advantages of the new broadband technology will
include videoconferencing and recordkeeping of meetings
and trainings, real-time monitoring and medical support
for aging and medically frail residents in agency homes,
and cost efficient delivery of operational information and
services. Videoconferencing services among several agency
sites alone is expected to save the three organizations many
thousands of dollars in travel expenses and staff time every
year.
Another major benefit to existing Living Resources
programming as a result of enhanced broadband
technology directly impacts our services for individuals
with disabilities. Participants in programs such as
Employment Services, the College Experience Program and
the Day Community Opportunities Program will have
many more opportunities to explore a variety of work
experiences and the skills necessary to prepare for them.
Better trained job applicants, with all levels of abilities, will
have greater prospects for gaining the employment they
want with the introduction of sustainable broadband usage
throughout all three organizations.
