Message from the Chief Executive Officer Dear Friends of Catholic Charities,

This Annual Report is a celebration of the work that Catholic Charities does to improve the lives of individuals, children and families who courageously face the challenges of hunger, homelessness, neglect, abuse, addiction, and despair. Inspired by the Gospel mandates to Love Serve and Teach, Catholic Charities provides services that create lasting change and improve the quality of lives. Our tag line appropriately reads that we provide Help that Works and Hope that Lasts. But we don’t do this work alone. We work hand in hand with partner organizations, agencies, governmental entities, businesses and churches, along with our committed volunteers in order to make a difference for the people we serve.

In 2013, we touched the lives of more than 14,395 individuals. Our work is carried out through sixteen programs in nine locations, seven of which are in Steuben County. In addition, we provide Child Welfare Programs with offices in Yates, and Allegany Counties. We also provide Therapeutic Foster Care Homes in several contiguous counties. While this information helps to communicate the scope of our foot print, it is the stories behind these numbers that are most inspiring.

While our programs did an excellent job in 2013 to improve lives, create positive change and achieve targeted outcomes; we continued to face the challenges of increasing numbers of the working poor and a slow economy while at the same time seeing decreases in governmental funding for programs serving the poor. And, true to our mission we remained committed to increasing our efforts to heal the underlying problems of poverty, developing human potential and eliminating the myths associated with poverty.

In 2013 we built upon our experience and more fully integrated our program services, which led to better coordination of services for the individuals and families we help. We also expanded the spectrum of anti-poverty services by joining hands with the Sisters of Mercy through a merger with “Sister Susan Cain’s” Steuben Rural Ministry, located in Canisteo. And, we increased our communication and advocacy efforts to give a voice to those who cannot advocate for themselves.

Also in 2013 the Board of Directors and Leadership Staff devoted much effort to developing the 2014-2016 Strategic Plan. This plan further engages the community in partnership so that we can continue to strategically and thoughtfully identify opportunities to reach out to more people in need, in more locations, with a focus on doing those things where we can achieve the greatest good.

I encourage you to read these pages, learn more about Catholic Charities and join us in our efforts to provide help that works and to hope that lasts for our neighbors in need.

With Warmest Regards,

Laura M. Opelt Chief Executive Officer

Message from the Chairperson of the Board Dear Friends,

The theme of this year’s Annual Report is “Joining Hands”. As I look down at my own hands, I am reminded of the times when I was doing a project and didn’t plan it very well. One scar is from a knife that slipped, another from a sharp piece of metal, and another from when I was building a stone wall. Had I taken some time to plan, I might have put a few safety guards in place, and the outcome may have been less painful and more productive. Reflecting on this, I asked myself, “What can I do to make the lives of individuals in Steuben County a little safer and more productive?”

Catholic Charities of Steuben County is improving the lives of children, families, and individuals that just need a hand. Not a hand out, but a hand up. This is accomplished with training, guidance, and support—a helping hand. Our programs work together, with hands joined, to provide the very best service to those in our community that only need some support to turn their lives around.

I realized that if I planned my financial giving better, I could probably help more people in Steuben County that need a helping hand. I offer a message to everyone to reflect on how you might plan to give a little of what you are fortunate to possess. These hands sometimes hurt, but I will always have a hand outstretched to help someone in need. If everyone gave a little, it would go a long way.

Please, open your hand, stretch it out and help to lift someone up; and may I be the first one to say “Thank you” and shake your hand.

Michael E. Gabrielli Catholic Charities, Board Chairperson

Therapeutic Foster Care Therapeutic Foster Care (TFC) specializes in the care of hard-to-place children and adolescents. The focus is to develop a child’s self-esteem, positive behavioral skills, and confidence. The aim is to guide children and their families as they transition back to home, school, and community.

Our staff was pleased to celebrate with Kim and Bill Cook of Avoca as Maisy and Emily became their daughters when their adoptions were finalized in February.

A picnic in honor of our foster families was held at Veteran’s Memorial Park in Hornell in July. About 30 foster parents, foster care youth, and other family members attended. A short training on water and sun safety was presented by Child Health Services Coordinator, Susan Knight. A dish-to-pass lunch was served and youth played games and swam in the city pool.

The New York State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) completed a Voluntary Agency Review of TFC in December, and while some areas were cited as “Improvement Opportunities,” none required any corrective action.

Kinship submitted an aggressive Recruitment and Retention Plan for 2014-2016 to OCFS in December. The plan outlines activities to recruit new foster homes and retain those that are currently certified. TFC needs new foster homes throughout the six-county area we serve.

Our foster families also attended a TFC Christmas party at the Hornell Moose Club. The party consisted of a dish-to-pass dinner, Christmas crafts, a huge piñata, and games. About 40 foster parents, family and youth attended.

Kinship staff members continue to meet or exceed the mandate established by OCFS regarding face-to-face contacts with youth in our care.

Summary of Services: Served 40 youth. Of those, 20 were discharged during the year. Of those, 50% were considered a successful

discharge, meaning these youth attained their permanency goals. Two girls were adopted by their foster parents. Two boys (brothers) were placed permanently

with their grandparents. Three young children were returned to their

parents. Two siblings stepped down to county level care.

Kinship Family & Youth Services “Strengthening families, bringing hope to children.”

Healthy Families Steuben Healthy Families offers support and education, through home visiting, to new and expectant parents living in Steuben County. Of special note in 2013:

In September, the Healthy Families Steuben Team received the Distinguished Award in Human Services by the Steuben Rural Health Network for their commitment to making a positive impact upon Steuben County Families and for the influence of the program’s best practices on rural human services.

Bath Community Child Day Care Center A New York State licensed child care center providing quality care to children six weeks to twelve years of age in a safe, nurturing and developmentally appropriate environment.

Children and staff celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday in March with special Dr. Seuss crafts, stories, cake, and ice cream.

The Week of The Young Child in April focused on the importance of quality early care and education. The center celebrated with several events including Parent Appreciation Day where parents were treated to muffins and coffee in the morning and snacks in the afternoon, an art show featuring art from every child at the center, a center-wide PJ party, and a Staff Appreciation luncheon.

The Center had its highest summer enrollment ever. In August the center celebrated the accomplishments of our 23rd Graduating Preschool class in a ceremony that included songs performed by the children, a DVD presentation of their years at the center and a reception for graduates, families and friends.

The center celebrated the Autumn season with our Halloween parade featuring our infants, toddler and preschoolers.

We wrapped up the year by celebrating the holiday season with our annual Holiday Concert and Spaghetti Dinner fundraiser In December. All of the center children were involved in performing for families and friends. Following the concert there were visits with Santa and a spaghetti dinner.

Summary of Services: Served 87 families with 143 children.

Of those children 69 were under five and 74 were school age children.

22 families received scholarships for 38 children.

“Committed to empowering those living in poverty to improve the quality of their lives.”

Our Anti-Poverty programs implement a 3-point plan of

Rescue-Support-Develop to assist those in poverty by

providing emergency services, education, referral, and

community-based collaboration.

There is synergy among these programs, and the strategy

of developing human capacity is an anti-poverty

approach that is well-supported among the faith

community.

Turning Point and Steuben County Rural Ministry “Rescue” people in poverty by providing food, short-term

financial assistance to meet basic needs, case

management, financial stability guidance, and info/

referral to resources/support services.

Began a restructure to reflect current resources, and

welcomed Sister Susan Cain and Steuben County Rural

Ministry to the division in January.

The Back-to-School Supply Drive provided 570

backpacks to students K-12 in central and western

Steuben County school districts. Students in the

Canisteo area also received essential underclothing,

such as socks and underwear.

Our Thanksgiving Project raised $9,500 enabling us to

provide Thanksgiving and Christmas food to about 900

families in the county.

Food donations sustained our three food pantries. For

example, a local chapter of Whitetails Unlimited, a

national nonprofit conservation organization, with the

assistance of the Kanona Volunteer Fire Department,

provided canned food for 83 local families by

collecting food items at their annual dinner.

Fundraisers included Community Food Drives, Steps to

End Poverty in Steuben (a walk to raise awareness and

financial support), the 40-Week Club, Christmas

Appeal and the Annual Membership Appeal.

The Faith Community provided utility and housing

assistance for our community. The unique and special

partnerships of joint- mission with local churches

continue to develop and grow. Diocesan support

includes the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester,

the Episcopal Diocese of Rochester, and the

Presbytery of Geneva.

The 2013 recipient was Michael Gabrielli, Chairman of CCSC’s Board of Directors. Laura Opelt, Executive Director, said, “Mike is a unique leader, he not only supports the organization at the top level, including serving as a Director on the Diocesan Board of Catholic Charities; but he also purposefully puts himself into the work of the agency at the staff level so that he can experience the true nature and need for our work.” Opelt stated that Mike Gabrielli is a true example of servant leadership.

Spirit of Turning Point: This award is given to an individual or organization whose contribution helps to advance this work to reduce poverty in our community. The 2013 recipient was Betty Hess. According to Lynda Lowin, Anti-Poverty Services Director, Hess “has been a passionate and ardent supporter of the Hornell area Turning Point for more than five years. She has made a personal commitment to fundraising and has made significant impact on the success of our work and in helping to meet the needs of people who are struggling in poverty.”

Golden Shoe Award: This award is presented to the individual that raised the most money in the Steps To End Poverty in Steuben “STEPS” Walk, a one-mile walk to raise awareness about poverty in Steuben County and to raise funds to help alleviate poverty. The 4th annual award was presented to Andy Mazzella, CCSC Independent Fundraising Specialist. Opelt said, “Andy deserves a great deal of credit. Those of you who know him know that he has a passion for our work. And, for the last four years, with our “STEPS” walk, he has carried the banner for people in poverty, giving them a voice and working to help improve the lives of our friends and neighbors.

one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

Therapeutic Foster Care Program Award: This award is given to a foster parent or parents who exemplify the qualities necessary to build a child’s self-esteem, positive behavioral skills, and confidence. The 2013 recipients were Myra and Rick Graham. Foster Care Director Cindy Fitzwater said the couple has developed meaningful relationships with each child placed in their home and they promote strengthening the children’s connections with their birth families. Fitzwater further said that the Graham’s door is always open for youth to come back and visit, have a meal, spend time talking, or to assist them with whatever is needed. According to Fitzwater, “We appreciate and recognize their willingness and ability to partner with us, to promote healthy children and families, and to be positive role models for birth parents. These foster parents work in collaboration with all agencies and providers involved in their children’s cases, as well as attending all required meetings, court appearances, and other provider appointments as necessary.”

Works of Love Award: This award recognizes the extraordinary effort of a member of the faith community who collaborates with CCSC to act on social justice issues and serve the most vulnerable in our community, advancing the mission of the organization through various works of love. The 2013 recipient was Mary and Bob Dunham. Lowin said the Dunhams are members of the Centenary United Methodist Church and have a long history of caring for those in both their church community and the community at large. Lowin noted, “The Dunham’s provide organization and leadership for their church’s participation in the Bath Area Churches United Against Hunger progressive dinner, which benefits CCSC’s Food Pantry. On behalf of Catholic Charities they coordinate the

monthly Turning Point Mission- promoting the item of the month, collecting and delivering the offering to our Food Pantry.” Lowin also noted that their largest impact is in the Thanksgiving and Christmas food project. Last year, alone, 375 families were provided a Thanksgiving meal and one month later were able to shop a Christmas food pantry for a second holiday meal. They are an excellent representation of the unseen Works of Love that takes place in our community.

Robert Turissini Award for Extraordinary Service: This award honors outstanding employees in The Spirit of Extraordinary Service of Bob Turissini, the former chairperson of the CCSC Board of Directors. The 2013 recipient was Jim Bassage. Gabrielli noted, “He has many qualities and attributes that make him a great leader, but it is his perseverance and dedication that push him to excel and go above and beyond.” Jim’s staff, who nominated him for this award, stated that he has the best work ethic of anyone with whom they have ever worked. That he believes in his staff and expects them to do great things and that they do achieve great outcomes because they have a strong supervisor behind them that believes in them.
