Letter from
the President and
Board Chair
Dear Friends,
As we reflect on the remarkable growth that Mary’s
Center has experienced over the past year, we want
to acknowledge all the individuals and organizations
that allowed us to advance our impact - donors, board
members, volunteers, partners, and advocates. You are
the heroes of Mary’s Center - the ones saving lives and
creating stronger communities, one family at a time.
Your contributions of time, expertise, and financial
resources have allowed us to continue our strategy of
integrating health care, social services, and educational
programs to help families achieve physical and mental
health, feel supported in their communities, and move up
the economic ladder.
Our 2010 outcomes speak to the effectiveness of our
programs. For example, 97 percent of babies born to
mothers enrolled in prenatal care at Mary’s Center had
healthy birth weights; nearly 100 percent of our teen
program participants prevented pregnancy; and more
than 90 percent of the adolescents participating in our
after school enrichment program proceeded to college or
trade school.
In 2009 we focused on implementing electronic medical
records and other robust initiatives to measure and
improve our quality of services. This set the groundwork
for 2010, the theme of which was building capacity.
Through the American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act (ARRA) and DC Department of Health tobacco
settlement funds that were distributed by the DC Primary
Care Association, we were able to fully renovate one
center and to add a new site at 3912 Georgia Avenue.
This enabled us to increase participant capacity from
18,500 in 2010 to a projected 24,000 in 2011.
At the same time, we are just as concerned about
maintaining the hallmarks that distinguished Mary’s
Center since our inception 23 years ago: quality care,
personal touch, and creating a space for members of
the community to come together. If at the end of every
day we are able to continue treating each participant
who walks through our doors with dignity, compassion,
and skilled professional care, we will consider ourselves
successful.
However, this quality and impact does not come
without an extraordinary amount of human and financial
resources. Like many other organizations, Mary’s Center
has not been left untouched by the financial crisis, and
we are continually facing the risk of losing funding that
sustains essential programs.
As you review this report, I hope the pictures, stories,
and impactful outcomes will inspire you to partner with us
to carry through with our commitment to the community
of maintaining state-of-the-art facilities, professional and
capable staff, and the highest quality of care.
Thank you for your continued support and for the
privilege of working with you to build healthier and
stronger communities throughout our region. Much
health and success to you and all your loved ones!

Mary’s Center 2010 Annual Report
Our outcomes
speak up
Mary’s Center’s tremendous outcomes are a direct result of our
extraordinary hard working and committed staff. Their work is guided by
the principle model that treating participants for their health problems
in isolation is insufficient to help individuals overcome the multiple life
challenges they often face.
We owe our success to a strategy of integrating primary health care,
social, and educational services to help individuals of all ages achieve
physical and mental health, feel supported in their communities, and move
up the economic ladder to become more productive and contributing
members of society. We believe that individuals who are healthy and feel
supported in their communities become better learners and are motivated
to achieve greater economic stability. We have observed that stable
families are able to place more emphasis on the educational achievement
of their children, thus strengthening the well-being—and health—of the next
generation.
Social
Services

Education
Our pioneering model has been acknowledged and applauded by many,
including First Lady Michelle Obama during her visit to Mary’s Center in
the first three weeks of the administration.

Reading with children
More than 90 percent of parents who completed the family literacy
program reported reading with their children.
High school graduation rates
Almost 90 percent of teens we regularly monitor graduated from high

trade school.
Mary’s Center 2010 Annual Report
Community
Impact and Saving
Each year, Mary’s Center spends an average of $825
per participant. Based on our track record, we know that
this small investment in the health and well-being of our
families results in tremendous community impact and
annual savings. For example:
• Mary’s Center’s Family Social Services help to
reduce the tremendous cost of child abuse and
neglect in the United States, which bears a burden
on families and society in the amount of $103.8
Billion per year because of adverse outcomes
throughout the life span of abused children.
• Mary’s Center’s prenatal care reduces neonatal
complications, and the savings increase
dramatically when considering the long-term costs
for newborns with physical and developmental
disabilities. In fact, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates a
savings of nearly $15,000 per low birth weight
births prevented by women who receive adequate
prenatal care.
• Our educational programs ensure that our
adolescents have the opportunity to go to college
and create a better future for themselves and
their families. Over a work life, earnings for an
individual with a bachelor’s degree compared with
one who only has a high school diploma increase
by about $1 million.

Quality:
Our Priority
Mary’s Center has a dynamic Continuous Quality
Improvement Program (CQI) which provides direction
for organization-wide quality management efforts. By
identifying opportunities to improve administrative
processes and service delivery systems, Mary’s
Center is constantly improving
the quality of care and assuring
the best outcomes for all of our
participants and the community
at-large. The program is driven
by the Continuous Quality
Improvement Committee and
guided by the Chief Medical
Officer. The CQI program
utilizes a multi-disciplinary team
approach through the organization
involving the teen program, health
promotion, social services and
nutrition among others, as well as
through administration, supported
by the Outcomes Manager.
The CQI Committee meets monthly
with activities addressing ongoing
and future projects. There are
quality HEDIS measures quarterly, reporting of patient
and staff satisfaction and patient access measures in
an environment encouraging active and open dialogue
with the team. All quarterly reports are presented in a
dashboard style to the Center’s Board of Directors.
10
Mary’s Center 2010 Annual Report
A specialized 360 Peer Review Process was developed
which not only includes quarterly peer chart reviews
within our medical, social and educational programs
but involves a supervisory review and one-on-one
discussion in order to make
improvements immediately.
Mary’s Center has participated in
a number of quality improvement
projects with external
organizations. We recently
completed our second year of
participation in the DC Primary
Care Association sponsored
by CareFirst BCBS, a,
Quality Transformation
Series sponsored by the
Montgomery County Primary
Care Association, and an
Office Practice Redesign
which was developed by
Institute for Healthcare
Improvement. All these
projects provided techniques
to improve and measure quality
with benchmarks demonstrating quantitative successes.
We were also recognized by the Delmarva Foundation
for three consecutive years for “Excellence in Prevention
through EHR Technology”.

Going Portable in 2010
Solutions that work
When Dr. Gesker joined Mary’s Center in April 2010, our
dental services were limited to a dental chair inside our
mobile unit, the Mama & Baby Bus, and provided only
basic services: screenings and cleanings.
A few months later, Dr. Gesker added two innovative
portable dental chairs and portable sinks inside our clinic
increasing our productivity by 60%. Our array of dental
services also increased: cavities, root canals, dentures
and more. Today, the dental clinic has five permanent
dental chairs.
Mary’s Center allows access to dental services that
have been so limited in the District due to the shortage
of providers, especially for underserved communities on
Medicaid or without health insurance.
