2003 - Boys Republic
Boys Republic ANNUAL REPORT 2003 We’re helping disadvantaged kids earn their way to a better life. Boys Republic A n n u a l R e p o r t F o r F i s c a l Ye a r 2 0 0 3 President’s Message Dennis Slattery Board President Transitional Housing Nears Completion No one is exempt from the struggles of everyday living. Earning a living Paying your bills Cooking your meals In other words, the grind of everyday living which we all face. For graduates of Boys Republic programs, everyday living presents an even more difficult challenge. New habits must be reinforced, while old ones must be abandoned. Often, there is no home or family to welcome you back. The Boys Republic response to this dilemma is its Transitional Housing project, now nearing completion on an isolated portion of the Chino campus. The project was soundly financed. Fund raising took place over a 2½ -year period. Construction did not begin until we were certain of raising the total project cost of $1.8 million. Under the leadership of project manager Kim Knecht, the project provided opportunities for Boys Republic students to fully participate and learn valuable vocational skills. Students were active as masons, framers, roofers and electricians. While living in transitional housing, students will have a large measure of independence. They will make their own decisions, be responsible for their own mistakes, and develop the self-esteem that comes from wise planning. At the end of their 6-12 month experience they will be better able to face the challenges that the world presents to us all. Margaret Fowler would approve. Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report z Page 1 Executive Director’s Message Max Scott Executive Director Boys Republic is entering its ninetyseventh year. This near-century span of service gives us pause to reflect on what it takes to be successful, year after year, as we work with the young people who enter our programs. A key factor is our focus on developing a sense of personal accountability in each and every student. This is not always easily accomplished. Adolescent youth tend to blame their Page 2 z Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report parents, teachers or police for their problems. Sometimes, they see themselves as victims of circumstances or actions by others, and this attitude may be reinforced by their families. At Boys Republic, we challenge this tendency to blame others. In its place we emphasize the need to take control of one’s own behavior and to act responsibly. We also seek to develop each youth’s independence. An important principle for us is that the assistance we deliver, whether emotional or financial, must contribute to the independence of the individual receiving the help. After all, when they leave Boys Republic, our students will go back into a world where, at or near adulthood, they must fend for themselves in a productive and law-abiding manner. Every day, members of our staff must make numerous, vital decisions on the best course of action to follow, and on the type of help to provide, so that each youth may succeed in attaining these goals of accountability and independence. Just as we expect the youth in our programs to become accountable for their actions, we expect Boys Republic to be accountable to those who support us. One important area of accountability is fundraising. Recently, we have seen an explosion of charities seeking gifts and donations from private individuals. In too many cases, these charities use high-cost telemarketers and professional fundraisers to pitch their programs. Telemarketing campaigns, including some used by police and fire agencies, typically return only about 10 percent of the amount raised to the charity – the rest is consumed by the telemarketer. This may be legal, but it is wrong. In my view, prospective donors should be informed up front how much of their contribution actually goes to the charitable purpose intended. At Boys Republic, the amount of donated funds going directly to services for young people averages 85 to 94 percent. Our fundraising costs fall into a low range of 6 to 15 percent, mainly to support a half-time fund raiser, a halftime secretary and printing and postage costs. Our donors, whether making a direct contribution or buying a wreath, can thus be assured that: Almost all of what they give goes directly to youth services, not to fundraising costs, We are using donations as designated, We are spending funds frugally and responsibly, We are carrying out a worthy mission in an effective manner. Our donors make it possible to provide programs and services that could never be provided using government funds alone. Our aftercare services, and the new transitional housing for homeless youth, referred to throughout this report, would not be available were it not for the generosity of those who contribute to our efforts. We are indebted to our many contributors – including foundations, corporations and friends – who make it possible to offer this vital array of needed services. Your support also helps us to maintain our program philosophy and autonomy. Our core values of personal accountability, honesty, service, work, education and self-governance are still in place after 96 years. It remains our resolve to be accountable to our donors and worthy of their continuing confidence and trust. Who We Are ..., and what we do ... Boys Republic is a non-profit, privately-endowed agency providing both residential and non-residential youth services to disadvantaged, at-risk young people from throughout California. It operates a total of nine programs — currently, all in Southern California: a 200-acre residential campus, school, and farm in Chino Hills; three residential group homes for boys in Los Angeles, Pomona and Santa Ana; a Girls Republic group home in Monrovia and non-residential day treatment centers and schools in the cities of Monrovia, Chino Hills, and El Monte (the administration and operation of the El Monte program was transferred in total to the El Monte School District, as of July 1, 2002). Our Aftercare and Independent Living Program serves all of the agency’s facilities. Total capacity for all Boys Republic facilities is 270 including 220 residential beds and the capacity to serve as many as 48 young people (and their families) in day treatment centers. Boys Republic provides diverse programs of educational, psychological, vocational and family reunification services. These programs include: Educational on-grounds public school (accredited by Western Association of Schools and Colleges) General testing and assessment Psychiatric and psychological assessment therapy Individual professional counseling Group, single and multi-family counseling Family preservation, family reunification counseling Medical, dental and nutritional care Nationally-recognized independent living program Athletics, recreation, physical fitness Educational and vocational counseling Vocational training (ROP) Work experience, employment training Substance abuse education, counseling Structured 24-hour residential services Intensive day program Aftercare services for all graduates Transitional housing program accomodations Fiscal Year 2003 Milestones Since its founding in 1907, Boys Republic has helped more than 25,000 abused, abandoned and at-risk boys and, in recent years, growing numbers of young women as well. While they come from all social strata, all racial and ethnic backgrounds and from diverse family situations, many share pertinent case history characteristics. In FY 2003: Boys Republic/Girls Republic served 679 young people in residential and day treatment programs. Nearly three out of four new students came to Boys Republic below academic grade level. Approximately 80% of incoming students have been in other placements. Formal family counseling sessions numbered more than 1000; most included entire families. More than 60% of the boys we treated have histories of physical or sexual abuse. One hundred percent of the student body earned school credit including a significant number of students who advanced one full year or more academically. Approximately 80% of the girls in our residential program were physically or sexually abused. Nearly all — about 95% — were referred with emotional and/or behavioral problems. Fully 80% of the boys and 50% of the girls entering residential programs are from one-parent homes. One student in nine is virtually homeless, having no parents or family to which he/she can return. The average length of stay for residential students was nine months. Page 4 z Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report Upon graduation, more than 80% of residential students returned to the home of one or both parents. The rest either returned to the home of another relative or were emancipated through our Independent Living Program and utilized Boys Republic aftercare services to live on their own. Eighty-six students were awarded scholarships following graduation, totaling $70,897. An additional 17 graduates received a total of $51,282 in financial assistance in the form of grants and loans administered by Boys Republic’s Aftercare Program. Our Outcomes ... Boys Republic graduates become responsible, contributing citizens. Boys Republic’s success with troubled youth is of more than provincial interest. This is so because citizenship is central to our philosophy of guidance and education. Even while much of our resources are dedicated to providing teenagers the knowledge they will need in order to prosper as adults, we place equal emphasis upon shaping an ethic as to how this knowledge is applied. Young adults who live by a well-defined sense of interpersonal ethics are more likely to prosper financially, as well as contribute to the common good. To evaluate whether we are accomplishing our aims, we have developed research that works closely with our aftercare follow-up program. The evaluation takes place at regularly scheduled intervals, over a one-year period, following graduation. Boys Republic is highly committed to helping its graduates achieve in four key areas: Law Abiding Citizen: Graduates will be arrest-free after 12 months. Productive Member of Society: Graduates will be attending college, working or in the military. Acceptable Living Arrangement: Former students will have an acceptable living arrangement 12 months after discharge. Not on Welfare: Graduates will be free of welfare or other institutional support. Data like these suggest that, despite histories of childhood abuse, abandonment and neglect, the vast majority of Boys Republic’s graduates go on to lead responsible, productive lives. Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report z Page 5 Transitional Housing Update Helping disadvantaged kids earn their way to a better life. Nearly three years ago, Boys Republic’s Board of Directors approved the agency’s undertaking of its largest single capital project, to date – the Transitional Apartments Program. Comprised of five buildings on 4½ acres of land at the youth agency’s Chino Hills campus, the project was conceived as a way to better serve older, homeless youth who were “aging out” of the placement system and at-risk of failure. Today, as the $1.8 million project’s construction phase approaches its conclusion, the need for such services has remained constant. Nearly ten percent (or twenty-eight students) of each year’s graduates have little or no viable means of support outside of placement. Homeless graduates faced with the formidable task of finding a job, renting and furnishing an apartment, and arranging transportation will, through the Transitional Apartments Program, have an opportunity to study and to acquire the vocational skills and financial resources to establish themselves independently. Construction Entering Final Phases Chase Dobbs, who is enrolled in Boys Republic’s Independent Living Program, spends 40 hours per week helping to construct the Transitional Apartments. He’s worked in all phases of the construction, from the ground up. As an older student with limited family resources, he would be eligible to live in one of the duplex apartments while acquiring the personal financial resources to establish himself on his own. Page 6 z Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report As the building process has progressed, the cluster of four craftsman-style duplex apartments with a larger, central services building at its center has taken on the feeling of a miniature community. The fully framed buildings are now completely roofed, doors and windows are installed, and their exteriors wrapped with wire as they await a protective coating of stucco. Newly poured curbs and gutters trace the outlines of an elliptically shaped drive that serves the small settlement. As construction crews install drywall, it appears the overall project is proceeding on-schedule, with the completed buildings ready for occupancy by May 2004. Apartments Project Provides Student Training Opportunity in Construction In addition to ultimately providing housing and training for graduating students, the Transitional Apartments project has already made possible hands-on work experience in construction. Older Boys Republic students are working along side journeymen construction crewmembers in each phase of the construction process. To date, more than forty students have worked on the buildings, pouring and finishing concrete, laying the heavy 12-inch masonry block, framing, standing walls, stacking and sheeting roofs, insulating subfloors, trenching and laying underground conduit, installing windows, roughing in electrical and hanging preliminary drywall. Substantial Savings Realized Students’ extensive participation in the construction process has realized substantial savings. The student work crew has accepted the responsibility to construct in its entirety one of the four duplex apartments. Labor savings in framing alone for that building were $26,200. Students currently enrolled in the Boys Republic masonry class built all eight masonry carport walls. The walls are straight and true. A professional mason could not have done better, but would have charged approximately $10,000. Total labor savings approaching a value of $203,000 will be realized as students and adult artisans participate in the electrical, drywall, lath and stucco, roofing, finish carpentry, site work, and irrigation and landscape trades. When the project is complete, student workers whose first experience in construction enabled the completion of the Transitional Apartments will be able to look with pride at their individual contributions. Theirs will be a first-hand understanding of the agency motto “Nothing Without Labor”. There is no better feeling. Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report z Page 7 Alumni Updates Paul Kang Wins 2003 Alumnus - of-the-Year Award From the ranks of thousands of alumni, Boys Republic each year identifies a former student whose career accomplishments and citizenship embody the spirit of the agency’s motto “Nothing Without Labor.” With this in mind, the 2003 Alumnus-of-the-Year Award fit Paul Kang like a glove. The outgoing alumnus looked back over the years since his 1994 graduation from Boys Republic’s Independent Living Program. Starting at Mount San Antonio College, he majored in Business Administration with an emphasis on real estate, while working nights at a hotel. He acquired a bachelor’s degree in Business from the University of Southern California and, after graduating, he attained a real estate broker’s license and became an account manager for Vicinity.com. While employed as an account manager at Mapblast.com, Kang observed that top level managers usually possessed advanced degrees. He determined to become an attorney. Kang took the LSAT and enrolled in Loyola Law school. He’s currently working as a law clerk for a firm in Beverly Hills. Author, Boys Republic Alumnus Robert Cotton Publishes First Novel Alumnus Robert Cotton called Boys Republic his “home” from 1943 to 1947. A self-described run-a-way street kid, it was his first experience in belonging and one that would make a lasting impression. He caught up in school, played sports, worked hard on the farm and, a crowning achievement, was elected Boys Republic mayor in his senior year. After graduation, military service and a succession of jobs led to a career in surveying. He met and married his wife of almost fifty years and now enjoys a growing family of grandchildren. Retirement has given Cotton the time to write five books. Just now being published, his Along the Bloody Mohawk is based on the actual military experience of an ancestor who fought in the Revolutionary War in the Mohawk Valley of New York. He’s also published short stories in literary magazines. Over the past several years, Cotton’s reflective correspondence with Boys Republic has been filled with stories of an era when young men defined their character through deeds of persistence and courage. Look for his Boys Republic memoirs in an upcoming edition of our newsletter. Page 8 z Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report BR News Briefs SASCO Electrical Contributes Engineering Services, In-Kind Supplies Leading electrical contracting firm SASCO donated construction engineering services and in-kind electrical supplies to Boys Republic’s Transitional Apartments project. Their donation resulted in substantial cost reductions and greater utility value for the project. After reading an article announcing the plan to build a Transitional Apartments complex, Larry Smead, SASCO CEO, contacted Boys Republic with an offer to provide a donation of electrical supplies and consultation on the project design. SASCO’s Vice President of Pre-Construction, Marvin Krasnow (shown at right pointing out design options to Boys Republic’s Plant Superintendent, Kim Knecht), spent many hours of consultation in the project’s planning phase, helping to streamline its design. Efficiencies gained through this collaboration resulted in lower total project cost (by approximately $200,000) and an increase in bed capacity from 12 to 14 students. SASCO subsequently provided all of the electrical materials needed to complete the project, a donation valued at nearly $50,000. Government Revenue as a Percentage of Total Revenue 100% 80% 40% 20% BOYS REPUBLIC 60% 0% Each bar represents a nonprofit organization with multiple programs. The dark horizontal line shows a mean value of approximately 85%. Most nonprofit organizations providing multiple social services programs accomplish their budgetary aims through a complex patchwork of funding. The mix of public and private funding resources can, in large measure, determine programming options, agency goals and, ultimately, the quality and success of programs as the agency pursues its mission. To the greatest extent possible, Boys Republic endeavors to “pay its own way” by operating self-help funding programs. The Della Robbia® wreath campaign, private investments and fundraising activities combine to save the taxpayer $7 million annually. The chart at left shows how Boys Republic’s public/private funding percentage compares against ten other Southern California nonprofits with multiple programs for fiscal ‘02-’03. Of the eleven agencies displayed, Boys Republic is among the lowest three in percentage of government revenues utilized to operate its programs. Boys Republic z 2003 Annual Report z Page 9 Board of Directors The primary governing body of Boys Republic is a Board of Directors which, by tradition, is made up entirely of volunteer citizens from communities served by the agency. The Board is self-perpetuating, electing its members from the ranks of Southern California’s leaders in business, professional and civic life. Many directors remain associated with the agency for decades. (The dates in parentheses following each name indicate the beginning year of service.)
