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 President Living Resources Corporation Board Fredrick W. Erlich Chief Executive Officer STUDENT GIVES College “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. Waylon Bartlett 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 Helen Claus – Schenectady Team Pasquale Colicchio – Albany South Team Eric Machiewicz – Albany North Team Ashley Singleton – Saratoga Team David Pierce – Rensselaer Team LIVING RESOURCES CORPORATION AND AFFILIATES Financial Statements Combined Statement of Financial Position December 31, 2010 Combined Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Assets for the year ended December 31, 2010 Assets Cash and cash equivalents ......................3,930,912 Investments ................................................470,692 Receivables ..............................................4,046,845 Prepaid expenses ..........................................86,755 Property, plant & equipment, net..........13,744,419 Other assets ................................................760,350 Revenue Program services revenue ....................35,450,881 Other revenue ..............................................432,873 Total Assets........................................23,039,973 Total Revenue ....................................35,883,754 Expenses Salaries and wages ................................19,055,006 Fringe benefits ..........................................5,384,208 Other than personal services ..................7,155,161 Administration ..........................................4,153,998 Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued expenses ....................................3,275,977 Current portion of long term debt ............403,424 Deferred revenue ..........................................65,570 Interest rate swap........................................667,398 Long term debt ........................................9,564,262 Other liabilities ........................................3,713,798 Change in net assets before swap contract ..................................135,381 Total Liabilities ..................................17,690,429 Change in Net Assets ....................................46,639 Net Assets Net assets, unrestricted ..........................5,349,544 Total Liabilities and Net Assets ............23,039,973 Total Expenses ..................................35,748,373 Change in fair value of interest rate swap........................................– 88,742 Net Assets, unrestricted, Beginning of Year ....................................5,302,887 Net Assets, unrestricted, End of Year ................................................5,349,544 Revenue increased 1.8% from 2009.

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. Mistress of Ceremonies Lydia Kulbida, CEO Fred Erlich and Bishop Howard 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. Fred Erlich accepts a plaque from The Albany Marriott General Manager 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. Living Resources staff member Joe Morelli carves one of many turkeys for the Thanksgiving dinner. Students, family members and ASP staff enjoy the feast! 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.

Albany County Executive Michael Breslin joins Betsy Ferris Wyman of SunDog Solar and Fred Erlich for the winter ribbon cutting ceremony celebrating Living Resources’ new solar panels. 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. GIFTS TO Living Resources January 1, 2010 – December 31, 2010 T he Living Resources Boards of Directors, staff and those we serve are grateful for the continuing support of our donors.
