Expectations change quickly, As we look ahead... there will always be individuals with disabilities though, when parents are told their child has a severe disability or medical fragility. Will the supportive services my child needs be available? Will she be able to get a job? Will he be happy? What will happen to my child after I’m gone? In 1953, these were the questions Bill and Sue Reder and Al and Dorothy Wood asked themselves, as did six other families who met as a parent group. This group envisioned and founded an organization that evolved into what we now know as Redwood. Sixty years later, Redwood offers 25 enriching educational, therapeutic, and vocational programs and helps over 700 individuals with severe and multiple disabilities uncover hidden abilities and achieve Some of Redwood’s founders along with the children in our once unimaginable potential. first school building in 1958. Over the years, many families have brought their loved ones disabilities and there will always be to Redwood out of concern for their a need for Redwood. This foresight future, but soon found a welcoming, is what motivated Joe VonLehman to encouraging place that celebrates recommend that Al Wood establish the the promise and potential of every Dorothy Wood Foundation in honor of individual. his late wife’s commitment to people As we look ahead, we recognize there will always be individuals with with disabilities. The foundation, which began with one dollar, now has assets of approximately $1.2 million. continued on pg. 19 Real People Experiencing a Better Quality of Life EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Barbara Howard PRESIDENT Robert Wood PRESIDENT ELECT Karen Finan VICE PRESIDENT Drew Hollenkamp TREASURER Amy Hansel SECRETARY Ross Eubanks TRUSTEES John Bailey C arl Biery Donna Bloemer Diane Booth Dave Gottmann Bob Groneck Mike Haas Maureen Hebert Bill Hesch Kristine Jones Louise Kent Dan Kieffer Paula McIntosh John Middleton James Noll Ross Pope Philip J.

If you were to visit Redwood, you would see children engaged in therapeutic and educational programs that prepare them for future success in school and adulthood. You would applaud men and women who proudly share information about their new jobs. You would laugh to see young adults programming a robot to do crazy stunts and marvel at the STEM concepts naturally taught through this activity. Finally, you would be sobered to see what it takes to safely feed people and to help them achieve improved health through nursing care. Robert Wood Board President Since 1953, thousands of people have experienced a better quality of life through Redwood. As we approach a momentous 60th anniversary, we reflect on where we have been and where we are going. We plan to be here for the future, but the future is not without risk. Threats such as a “fiscal cliff,” cuts to human service programs, and economic recessions are concerning. This is why board leaders identified a need to be more self-reliant through the growth of our endowment. Our cover story provides more information about this initiative. Barbara H. Howard Executive Director/CEO Give us a call to learn more about what is happening at Redwood today and our plans for endowing Redwood for the future! In Redwood’s mission, Barbara H. Howard Executive Director/CEO Donna Bloemer & Kevin Baker Dick & Diane Booth Dr. & Mrs. Tom Bunnell Harry Eagan David & Gina Freeze Bill Hesch Dennis & Jackie Hirt Dallas Horn Barbara Howard Suzanne Land Pete & Kate Michels Robert Wood Board President John & Janet Middleton Dr. & Mrs. Martin J.

To that end, DHL Express has entered into a unique partnership with Redwood to employ up to 40 individuals with severe disabilities. DHL...a leader within our community on many levels. How it all began Redwood was initially contacted in 2011 by DHL’s upper management about this partnership opportunity. Subsequently, DHL and Redwood staff toured each facility, observed various work tasks, and identified specific job possibilities in DHL’s Gateway and Operations areas, which requires data entry work or packing, shipping, and sorting, respectively. Job opportunities ranged from full- and part-time positions, complete with benefits, to casual employment with flexible scheduling. Making it happen At DHL’s request, Redwood provided training to DHL’s management team on best practices to support the success of individuals with disabilities in the workforce. Concerns regarding the hiring and orientation process were identified. DHL immediately addressed them by making recommended accommodations. DHL also provided security access to specialized software screens so that Redwood could create a five-week computer-based training program at Redwood for the Data Cleanse and Classification process. Getting to work Since launching the partnership in March Jill Deck is currently employed with DHL as a data cleansing and clarification agent and very much enjoys her new found 2012, approximately eight independence. candidates have been referred for employment at DHL, resulting in finding a job in her community that employment of six individuals to date, is close to home and near family and with others in the process. friends. Jill Deck is a shining example of someone realizing her potential through this important partnership. Jill possesses many qualities that are easily overlooked – unless you are an employer. She is highly motivated and a hard worker. Above all, she is reliable. DHL’s management team took an immediate interest in Jill after meeting her during their tour of Redwood. DHL has established itself as a leader within our community on many levels. Recently, the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation recognized DHL with the Employer Recognition Award for its corporate commitment to look beyond a person’s disability and not only discover but empower their abilities. “This was a very positive move for Jill,” states Stacey Meyer, Jill’s Employment ...look beyond a person’s disability... empower their abilitites. Specialist. “Her positive qualities,” adds Stacey, “such as her work ethic and her dependability, more than make up for any challenges presented by her disability.” “It is a good fit for me because I get to meet new people and complete satisfying work,” says Jill, adding that the best part of the job is the sense of independence that comes from earning her own money. She also appreciates Toyota The Toyota Production System (TPS) is a management philosophy for streamlining work processes to preserve resources and eliminate waste as a means of creating value for the customer. When Toyota offered Redwood the opportunity to implement TPS, we jumped at the chance. Special thanks to our good friends at Toyota for helping us improve our work processes. Watching Abilities Grow! Pari Stands Tall Meet Pariwish, or Pari for short. This adorable toddler came to Redwood’s Prescribed Pediatric Extended Care (PPEC) program during the program’s pilot phase just a year ago at age three. She was unable to sit or stand at that time. Although non-verbal, “she expressed herself with a smile, a whimper, a cry, or simply by turning her head away,” says Jaime McLaughlin, director of PPEC/Nursing at Redwood. Pari was born with the rare Wolf- It won’t be long before she is choosing a song during circle time... Pari smiling when hearing one of her favorite songs, “Twinkle Twinkle LIttle Star.” Redwood’s PPEC program is a day treatment program managed and staffed by skilled nursing and healthcare professionals trained to care for children with chronic medical conditions, like Pari, in a safe, caring, and developmentally-stimulating environment. Pari has been progressing famously throughout her year at Redwood. She has a smile that brightens the room. Through weekly sessions with physical therapy and daily follow through by nurses and PPEC staff, Pari now sits independently! She also enjoys experiencing the world from a new standing perspective. Pari uses a therapeutic stander 45 minutes twice a day to improve weightbearing, strength, and balance. Being in a stander allows Pari to better see and interact with other children and with educational and play materials. Pari showing off her skills in the therapeutic stander while playing with toys. Hirschhorn syndrome, which is caused by a deletion on the fourth chromosome. Children born with this syndrome typically have seizures, heart problems, and a shortened life expectancy. She also has become more vocal in communicating her wants and needs. Through the use of assistive technology, Pari is learning new ways to express herself during learning activities. It won’t be long before she is choosing a song during circle time and activating the toy animals through purposeful movements. Pari’s accomplishments are not just at Redwood; her parents have noted the improvements at home as well. Pari’s mom is delighted she sits up at home, which is something she could never do before. She also says Pari smiles when they arrive at Redwood because Pari’s accomplishments ...are noted at home as well. Pari knows she is at school and she is happy. Be on the lookout for future news regarding Pari as she takes future steps towards independence!

Both Redwood’s children and adults will benefit from volunteers like these for years. Volunteers from GE sent several groups out for days of demolition work to prepare for the new playground equipment. The toddlers snuck a peek of the new playground on one of the warmer winter days. The look on their faces was priceless! The playground will officially be open in the spring. Calling All Volunteers Get Involved!

From the Chief Development Officer In 1953, Redwood began serving six children with cerebral palsy. Today, we serve over 700 children and adults with a wide range of disabilities. We also serve children without disabilities. When we started, we were very much a Telly McGaha grassroots organization that relied heavily on the financial Chief Development Officer and voluntary support of individuals, businesses, and other organizations. Over the years, our community support has expanded to include second and third generations of individual donors, United Way of Greater Cincinnati, local fiscal courts, and Medicaid. Our funding, however, is not assured and the recent recession helped us realize how much we are at the mercy of the economy. We made sacrifices in order to remain good stewards of the public trust and were able to pull through the economic turmoil and its lingering effects relatively unscathed, though not unscarred. Since then, we have been strategically developing plans to stabilize our funding sources so that Redwood is less susceptible to future economic downturns. These plans include growing our endowment. As we did nearly sixty years ago at our inception, we will again look to our local community for support, especially individuals and businesses, to make this initiative a success. Your generosity will lay a foundation that will provide stability and resilience in the face of environmental challenges – and assure future people with disabilities, their families, and our community that Redwood is here to serve them. I look forward to working with you in the months ahead on this very important project. Online Giving Did you know you can make online donations?

More than anything else, you want her to experience a happy childhood and to become a well-adjusted adult. Sadly, your child has been diagnosed with a disability that impacts her ability to understand what she hears, to focus and attend to instruction, and to use her hands in a coordinated manner. You learn that your daughter’s brain is not operating efficiently and for this reason… she will fall farther and farther behind in school and may never achieve her full potential. Imagine your pain on hearing this news. Imagine the pain your daughter will experience over and over again as she struggles to keep up with peers, not just this year, but every year for the rest of her life. Now imagine there is help for your daughter in the form of new therapeutic tools and methods that will not just help her compensate for her disabilities, but overcome them. These tools and methods are Technology-Based Treatments for Cognitive Rehabilitation. In recent years, there have been amazing advances in computer-assisted cognitive skills Christian from Redwood’s Prescribed Peditraining. Speech-language and occupational atric Extended Care (PPEC) program practherapists, as well as developmental tices his handwriting using PointScribe. interventionists, at Redwood are now using these new technologies—paired with traditional therapeutic methods—to help children improve auditory processing, motor planning, attention, concentration, memory, coordination, and other cognitive or “thinking” functions. When the brain functions in a more efficient manner, children are better able to learn spontaneously and to benefit from instruction. This, of course, supports educational achievement, social relationships, safety, and general ability to function in everyday life. One example in use at Redwood is Interactive Metronome. This computerbased neuromotor treatment program improves overall neural timing of the brain. Children clap hands or tap feet in time with a changing rhythmic tone heard through earphones. This enhances attention, language processing, motor planning, balance and gait, sequencing, and other cognitive skills. PointScribe is a multisensory interactive software that teaches children to recognize and produce the shapes that form letters. When a seven year old boy had trouble naming and printing letters of the alphabet, our occupational therapist guided him in using a touch screen to trace letters as the PointScribe program provided visual and auditory feedback for the correct formation of the letters. His teacher was so impressed with his progress that she asked the boy, “Did you take a handwriting pill?” These and other innovative technologies are making a real difference for schoolagers at Redwood. To learn more, or to enroll your child, please contact Peggy Farmer, Director of Therapy & Technology Solutions at 859 331-0880, Ext. 249 or [email protected]. Planned Giving The American Taxpayer Relief Act (ATRA) of 2012 was enacted January 3, 2013 and revived the IRA Charitable Rollover. ATRA allows many investors 70½ or older to transfer as much as $100,000 from an IRA directly to a qualified charity, such as Redwood, without having the transfer count as taxable income. The transfer, if done properly, can count toward the taxpayer’s required minimum distribution for that year. The extension keeps in place all of the previous requirements in order for the transfer to qualify: • The donor must be at least 70½ years of age when the gift is made. • The transfer must be made directly from the IRA administrator to the charity. • The gifts from the IRA cannot exceed $100,000 per person or $200,000 for a couple in a given year. • They can only be outright gifts (they cannot fund a charitable gift annuity or charitable trust). To make your gift, simply contact your IRA custodian and notify us of your plans. As everyone’s circumstances are different, it is important that you consult with your professional advisor about this opportunity. To Honor & Remember Contributions to Redwood’s Memorial Program are used to further therapeutic, educational, and vocational services for children and adults with disabilities. Your participation is encouraged in the program by honoring loved ones with a Living Memorial, get well, birthday, or other special occasion remembrances. Brewer, Jeanne Barbara H.

Through this option, you can leave assets to Redwood after you or your spouse pass away. Longer Legacy continued from pg.1 In the past five years, our country experienced a deep recession that continues to have lingering effects that are impacting the stability of traditional sources of funding for all nonprofit organizations. Through good management practices, Redwood has continued to operate within a balanced budget, but we realize our funding is not assured and have concerns for the future. To meet the needs of future generations and strive towards sustainability for another 60 years, Redwood will develop funding plans to grow the endowment. A bigger endowment will lessen the impact of future recessions, legislative and public policy changes, diminishing workplace charitable giving programs, and competition from other nonprofits, while endowing Redwood’s legacy of service. A bigger endowment will insure that more people with disabilities and their families get the support they need. A stronger endowment fund will also address current needs and future opportunities we cannot yet imagine. Most importantly, it will continue to empower children and adults. Forever. Children Services Few people recognize play as an important tool of learning, but “teaching through play” is a critical aspect of Children Services. To support children’s physical development, Redwood provides daily “learning through play” opportunities through a newly renovated toddler playground, a school-age playground, an indoor mini-gym, and play centers in each classroom. The upgraded toddler playground features improved accessibility and will support cognitive, emotional, social, and physical development as toddlers interact with one another while safely swinging, sliding, climbing, hanging, balancing, and exploring. The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) recently granted Redwood’s Children Services a five-year renewal of its NAEYC accreditation. Children Services also received a three-star rating from Kentucky’s STARS for KIDS NOW. NAEYC’s voluntary accreditation and STARS for KIDS NOW’s voluntary rating speak to the high-quality of services provided to young children and families through our nursery, toddler, and preschool programs. Adult Services The Work Activity Center partnered with Chef Dennis Umburg for a restaurant simulation event. Chef Umburg worked with a group of eight adults to prepare, cook, and serve a spaghetti luncheon to everyone in the Work Activity Center program. The event gave adults the full restaurant experience, from cooking with a chef and serving meals, to selecting items from a menu and paying a cashier for their orders with “Redwood Bucks.” The spaghetti luncheon was a deliciously engaging way to teach service industry skills, money recognition, and appropriate social interaction – all while enjoying a great meal! Redwood thanks and appreciates County Market in Alexandria, KY for their generous support of this initiative. Independent Living An important aspect of independence is the ability to complete essential tasks, such as preparing meals, washing dishes, doing laundry, or simply relaxing on the couch with a good book. Children and adults can now practice these tasks through the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Room. This interactive learning environment features a working kitchen, laundry center, living room, and library where individuals can develop their independent living skills while performing everyday tasks. Special thanks to the Kloenne Foundation, Fifth Third Bank and Narley L. Haley, Co-Trustees, for the grant that made the renovation and refurnishing of the Activity of Daily Living Room possible.
