Twenty years after leaving Eagle Village as a teenager, Harvey walked back through the front doors of the main administration building. When the receptionist asked, “Can I help you?” Harvey said, “You already have.”

Harvey came to Eagle Village at 17 years old because of various struggles, and spent a month in the Assessment Center. “I thought it was tough to be there,” Harvey remembers. “But when we went on Project Survive, I realized it hadn’t been that hard after all.” Project Survive, a 9-day intensive wilderness experience, teaches youth respect and responsibility through decision making and natural consequences.

Mr. Drue, an Eagle Village staff member who worked with Harvey, remembers what he was like.

“Harvey did really well at Eagle Village. He was a leader in the group during Project Survive,” Mr. Drue says. “He always had a really good spirit.”

After leaving Eagle Village, Harvey struggled for several more years until he was 24.

“That’s when I realized how the seeds planted in me through what I did at Eagle Village were still affecting me,” Harvey says. “I would look at what I was doing and realize it was something they taught me at Eagle Village. All this stuff kept coming back to me and helped me become the man I am today.”

Now Harvey is the manager of two restaurants, and is raising his two sons. Even though at times, his time spent at Eagle Village was challenging, without it he wouldn’t be the man he is today. “I read through my Bible for the first time at Eagle Village. I have all good memories from my time there,” Harvey says. “There was nothing I would have changed about it.”

When the receptionist asked,

“Can I help you?” Harvey said, “You already have.”

Through God’s help and love, we serve, value, and equip children and families for success.THIS IS OUR MISSION.

“My mom had trouble with money, so we never stayed in one place for long.” Moving from place to place kept Carissa from making long-term friends. She began to fight with her mother and spend time with the wrong crowd. Often hungry, she stole food, got caught, and was put on probation. As family issues continued, the decision was made to remove Carissa from her home and place her at Eagle Village.

“I was so happy when I arrived at Eagle Village,” Carissa remembers. “I was so thankful to have food to eat and a bed to sleep on.”

Her first day in the house, the residents went around in a circle and introduced themselves, telling Carissa things about themselves. “Even though I was so happy to be there, I was also nervous and uncomfortable,” she recalls. “I said something about liking to listen to old music. After the introductions were over, I had a long conversation with one of the staff members about old music.”

That staff member, Mr. Jason, became one of Carissa’s advocates over the ten months she spent at Eagle Village, as she began to break the habits she’d formed over the past few years. Holding only two high school credits, Carissa wasn’t eager to pursue her diploma. “He spent months trying to convince me to work on my diploma,” Carissa says. “When I decided to go for it, he even helped me through math class. Without him, I never would have graduated. He believed in me, and he showed it.”

Carissa’s potential had shown through, even though, like so many kids at Eagle Village, she’d arrived from difficult circumstances. “Carissa had all the basics.

She was smart, and she understood the difference between right and wrong,” Mr. Jason remembers. “She just needed the motivation and needed to have her confidence built.”

Carissa was in the Passages Program for older teenagers. Mr. Brian, in charge of student employees in the program, assigned her a job on campus. “My first job was helping the experiential staff. I didn’t really want the job when Mr. Brian told me that’s where they would put me, but he pushed me to do it,” Carissa remembers. “And when I actually did it, I really enjoyed it. Mr. Brian had a good idea of where I needed to be.”

Carissa also gained valuable job experience by working as a receptionist on campus during her last few months at Eagle Village. “I didn’t think I had enough potential to get a job, and I never thought I would graduate from high school. But because of Eagle Village, I now have an awesome resume.” Carissa has applied to college and plans to earn her bachelor’s degree.

Beyond finishing her high school education and discovering her potential, one issue remained in Carissa’s life: her relationship with her mother. Eager to restore their relationship, Carissa’s mother chose to attend all of the Family Legacy Weekends, a time for residents and their families to grow together, learn communication skills, and repair broken relationships. “We learned to resolve our arguments in a healthy way,” Carissa says. “My mom changed as a person through the weekends, and I think Eagle Village really just got to her. We took in everything Eagle Village had to offer.”

Her time at Eagle Village brought about a complete turnaround for Carissa. “Eagle Village gave me an opportunity at life that I never thought I would have. They showed me I’m worth it.”

Denny Lerner A DONOR’S STORY

With you, we continue to provide the highest quality treatment and services to Michigan children and families.

10

I first came into contact with Eagle Village sometime in the early seventies when I heard the founder, Kermit Hainley, speak at a lunch meeting. I remember how his description of Eagle Village impacted me as he spoke about their mission and the children they were serving. Up until that time, I hadn’t really thought about the issues these children faced each day. I thought all families were like mine. It broke my heart and I wanted to help. It just didn’t seem fair and I felt obligated to get involved.

Through my years of involvement and support, I was honored to serve on the Board of Directors. The difficult task of mending broken families—and giving neglected and abused children a decent shot at life—was worthy of my time, talents, and financial backing. It has always felt, to me, like the right thing to do.

I couldn’t imagine growing up and not having anyone in the bleachers cheering me on. I couldn’t imagine having my relationships with my family severed because of how they treated me.

In talking with the children over the years I realized how important nurturing and caring for them is, and how much every child needs a family. The very thing I took for granted growing up was so desperately needed—that is why I think the Village is important and relevant.

When our business moved to a new location, donating the real estate from the former location was an easy decision for my wife, Cindy, and I to make. The Village could use it for counseling, foster care, adoption, and for carrying out their mission with kids and families. It was the perfect thing for us to do.

I feel so good about my involvement with Eagle Village. I encourage everyone to give this place all their love and support—it will make you feel good also!

“I couldn’t imagine growing up and not having anyone in the bleachers cheering me on.”

—Denny Lerner, Eagle Village Donor

1. Giving a Spiritual Foundation Showing our kids that they’re valuable, not only to us, but also to God, gives them a solid foundation no matter where they go when they leave us. They can choose to participate in our weekly chapel services, learn from our campus pastors, and attend a local church on Sunday.

The Eagle Fund covers:• Offering each child a Bible as a welcome gift • Maintenance of the chapel building

2. Transporting Our KidsTraveling in the area and across the state is an important part of caring for our kids, and transportation costs are entirely covered by the Eagle Fund.

Our road warriors pick up families for Therapy Weekends, and they drive our kids to:• Home visits • College tours • Community service projects• Court dates • Doctor appointments

Your investment in Eagle Village kids through the Eagle Fund provides the highest quality services to our children and families. You make it possible for us to give our kids resources and training—things that we take for granted—that they would not receive other places.

3. Involving the FamilyBringing the child to Eagle Village is only the first step. Restoring relationships means the entire family needs to be involved, so we bring the whole family here for therapy weekends! Free of charge, we:• Offer transportation for the family • Provide a room in our on-campus motel • Feed them every meal all weekend long • Give the family a meeting with a therapist

4. Keeping Our Campus NiceProviding houses that feel like home is important to us! Our kids have come from all different backgrounds, and many of them have experienced neglect and abuse, or lived in multiple foster homes or residential facilities. Often, they haven’t experienced the standard of living many of us would consider normal.

We use the Eagle Fund to:• Repair or replace broken household items • Ensure each house is clean and welcoming• Keep our campus up-to-date

5. Providing ScholarshipsRaising children isn’t easy to begin with—and when children begin to struggle with their behaviors and emotions, parents can feel helpless. Serving families means providing a way for them to get help when they need it. A portion of the Eagle Fund goes to creating scholarships for youth and families, for different camps where they can learn important life lessons such as anger management, respect, and boundaries.

6. Teaching Skills and TradesTraining and certifying kids in needed trades prepares them for the future. But teaching a skill means that we need the tools to do it!

The Eagle Fund covers:• Tools for trades • Instructors to teach skills • Offering certifications for our kids

YOUTH CHALLENGE:

Weekend event for teens

FAMILY CHALLENGE:

5-day rustic camp for 9-13 year olds

50 years is an amazing history marker! We have looked back over the first 50 years of Eagle Village, celebrated many incredible accomplishments and are continuing our momentum forward. We are committed to continue our legacy of creating and developing resources to meet the needs of children and families.

We made amazing strides in 2018:

This Impact Report was written to thank donors and volunteers for supporting our work with children who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned. We are grateful that you have made this critical issue a priority and that you believe in the reason we exist: to see the potential in all people, regardless of their story.

As partners, we believe in giving children a wonderful start in life. We want them to be prepared and excited for their futures. We also know that when children experience trauma, it takes expertise to help them work through it and not let it become a defining factor in their lives.

Our highly-trained staff uses a combination of professional expertise and the Eagle Village approach to give genuine value to each boy or girl and their specific needs.

We are grateful that you have made this critical issue a priority and that you believe in the reason we exist: to see the potential in all people, regardless of their story.

THANKS TOOUR LEADERS

It is heartbreaking to see a child who has lost hope, does not feel valued, and does not feel anyone can be trusted. When they are shown they have value and their basic needs are met, they can focus on navigating through the trauma. In our caring culture they learn a standard of living, they set and reach goals, they go to school consistently, and they discover their talents. The experience inspires hope and gives each child the opportunity for a better future.

Together we change the future, one child at a time. Each child that comes to Eagle Village goes on to touch countless lives. You are a part of each and every success when you support the important work being done on this campus.

We are inspired by your support. Gratefully,

Carol Hyble Vice President of Advancement
