A Counseling and Family Service Agency with an Anti-racist, Social Justice Mission
A MESSAGE FROM SARAH 2013 was a year of transition for me and for VCS. In August of 2013 I moved from Portland, OR and began my tenure as the VCS Executive Director. Prior to my arrival, the leadership of the Interim Co-Executive Directors, Phyllis B. Frank and Gail K. Golden was nothing short of heroic. They both wore many hats from January through half of August. Both of these remarkable women are long time leaders at VCS and were able to prioritize their responsibilities well. The Director of Finance, Nancy Rosa, was able to keep the VCS doors open during this time. Our Board of Directors stepped up to both conduct a personnel search and assist all of the aforementioned women in running such an important agency. The management staff and I, along with Phillip Heffernan, worked for nine months to revise our logo. Phil, a student intern, and professional designer, offered his services because he believes very strongly in the VCS mission. We decided to take a fresh look at how to convey through a new logo, who we are and what we do. VCS is a counseling and family service agency with an anti-racist and social justice mission. We have featured our new logo on the cover and we hope you love it as much as we do. Throughout 2013, 13,101 hours of service were provided to people seeking help. They turned to VCS for counseling - often at times of personal and family crisis. We expanded our youth counseling programs in schools that either provides limited or no mental health services at all due to budget cuts. The VCS mission; to provide hope and promote social justice for individuals, families and communities through counseling, conflict resolution and community change, is carried out with a sense of pride and purpose by a unique blend of a volunteer work force and professional staff. Our staffing model provides low cost services for people including those who are either uninsured or underinsured. The report that follows is a synopsis of our work and accomplishments in 2013. The greatest measure of our success continues to be the number of individuals, young people and families who look to us for help. Our organization has been a Rockland County institution since 1970 and for more than forty four years the citizens of our county have been able to count on VCS for caring, quality and affordable services. We appreciate your continued partnership and financial support to maintain this vibrant bastion of hope. Thank you,

2013 HIGHLIGHTS continued 2013 Foster Grandparent Program
During 2013, 70 Foster Grandparents – including four new volunteers, volunteered in nineteen educational programs around the County, working with 1,670 special needs students. The total number of hours of service added up to 75,619 hours!
PRE-K: Surpassed goal by 20 students so that 65 children improved in at least two identified academic areas.
SPECIAL ED: Approximately 22 or 81% special education students showed improvement in skill or began to utilize newly acquired skills.
ELEMENTARY ED: 90% of students who worked with Foster Grandparents for at least six months reached more than one academic goal.
HS Target: FGP continued offering tutoring at the high school level with great success at a new site, Tappan Zee High School. A foster grandmother tutored and mentored approximately 10 students in History, English, Science and helped them prepare for regents exams. Four students passed all classes and graduated with a regents diploma.
Seventy Foster Grandparents contributed:
NICHOLAS’ STORY Nicholas grew up in Spring Valley watching his father physically abuse his mother, and trying to protect his younger sister from the violence in his home. Eventually his father left and went to live in Central America. He began to identify as gay in middle school. When he came out to his mother, she told him she would “never accept it”. She began to distance herself from him and dropped him off with people he did not know to care for him. He felt rejected by those closest to him. He learned he could not be himself with his family, and began to try to be somebody he was not. There was nobody he could talk to about what he was carrying. He started getting migraines and felt sick a lot due to the resulting stress. He used alcohol and drugs to numb these overwhelming emotions. By the time he came to VCS at age 16 he was traumatized and severely distressed, often experiencing violent mood swings during the day. The school said they had to call the police or the ambulance any time he became angry because his outbursts were so severe. VCS engaged him in counseling to give him a place to begin to express the difficult feelings he carried within himself. We also engaged his mother in counseling, and helped her begin to talk about her son’s sexual orientation since she also had no place she could do this safely. She loved him deeply, but felt caught between him and what she imagined would be the reaction of her conservative family. She had

nobody to talk to about how to relate to a gay child. Counseling gave her a place to talk about the things she could not say to anybody. Over the course of their work at VCS, the two of them began to reconnect. Nicholas’s outbursts at school became less severe and the school no longer
