2011 Annual Report

Connecting people living with disabilities and their families, to a world of possibilities

Easter Seals Southeast Wisconsin Annual Report 2011

We are struck every year by the technological improvements and seemingly unlimited changes we adapt to. I have mentioned before that through social media, we are connected with or follow groups in the United Kingdom and Australia. This year, major news stories broke on Twitter before television or radio reports. Strangely, the last thing you use your cell phone for is to actually talk with someone! Our society is faster in its pace, with more diverse people, ideas and resources. The volume of information we create in a year is more than humans previously created in a century of effort. But, for all this virtual connectivity, many of us can feel overwhelmed by the amount of information we need to cull through to find the truth and get answers to our questions.

For children and adults with disabilities and their families, not only is the amount of information overwhelming, but the services they require are not easy to access and it takes tremendous effort and time to get the right services, at the right time for the right outcomes to occur. Without this formula, opportunities are lost, doors are closed and the individual, the family and society pay a steep price. A family can feel like a ship at sea surrounded in fog, searching for shore.

For nearly 80 years, the reputation and branded Lily of Easter Seals has stood as a beacon for hope, help and answers for families and individuals living with disabilities. In 2011, like the previous three years, we have only seen more people seeking services to help their child learn to walk, provide respite to families, skills training to live independently, provide the most basic of personal cares or to find a meaningful work. To help individuals find meaningful work we launched Project SEARCH at Children’s Hospital with six young interns (p.10) Who learned new skills and adapted to technology to develop skills for employment.

We are about tomorrow, we are about the future. Easter Seals affiliates nationwide launched the Make the First Five Count Campaign to shine the light on the sad reality that thousands of young children in the US are not receiving life changing services during the most active learning period. At Easter Seals we are committed to connecting individuals we serve not only to the right services, but to a world of possibilities, possibilities we don’t even know, but join with our individuals and families to make a reality for each person we serve and support.

Easter Seals’ beacon has shown brightly because of you, our donors, supporters, volunteers and friends. Your generosity, your commitment and your belief that all people should have an opportunity to reap the benefits of our society powers our beacon to Southeast Wisconsin.

Leading the Way Early Intervention is the key to a child’s success and when we invest in our young children, we change the future.

Early identification and early intervention services are critical because, for every child, the first five years are an intensive developmental period.

•1 in 5 households with children have a child with a special healthcare need.

Early Intervention

Is YOUR child at Risk?

Every year over 5 million children under the age of 5 are at risk of developmental delays and disabilities.

Visit www.MaketheFirstFiveCount.org to take a free online version of the Ages & Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition.

Your ASQ-3™ results will help you see if your child’s developmental progress is on target and alert you to concerns that you can talk over with your health care provider or one of our Easter Seals early intervention specialists.

For more information about Easter Seals Early Intervention Services, please contact Erin Raber at 414-604-5050

• Every year,1 million kids enter school with an undiagnosed disability. That is the equivalent of 13,333 full-sized school buses full of children.

• In Wisconsin 28,677 kids under the age of three are at risk of developmental delays or disabilities that will set them back when they start school, yet only 6,000 are currently receiving early intervention services.

Easter Seals Southeast Wisconsin Annual Report 2011 5

Early InterventionEaster Seals is here to help families and to Connect Children to a World of Possibilities.

“Easter Seals Birth to Three program has been so helpful to our grandson and to me and my husband. To hear him say so

many different words is a blessing. Thank you.”

Autism Services

• In 2011, Easter Seals Southeast WI provided over 14,000 hours of early intervention therapies to the 281 children served in our Birth to Three Program.

• Of all children who completed therapy in 2011, 48% did not need continued services through the schools after age 3 or were discharged early from our program and no longer need early intervention services.

www.eastersealswise.com6

Early Intervention Autism Services Easter Seals is an autism expert and is the leading provider of autism services in the nation.

• In 2011, we provided a total of 19,500 hours of behavioral therapies to 46 children served through our Autism services.

“My son has began working with Easter Seals in 2007 and then started receiving ABA therapy in February of 2010 and the results have been life changing for my son and our family. My son has blossomed from a child who would rather sit in the corner by himself, playing with an ice cube, to an amazing young man with

friends, dreams, and an amazing love of life. Easter Seals made sure my son always received the services he had needed and the staff and therapist are always

extremely helpful and caring. We are so grateful everyday to have Easter Seals staff as a part of our family and to be a part of the Easter Seals family as well!”

• 1 in every 9 individuals of all ages served by Easter Seals are living with autism.

Easter Seals behavioral services do not end once a child reaches a certain age. We offer a continuum of care that addresses the needs of individual living with autism as they transition from their teens through adulthood. • Last year we provided nearly 130 hours of behavioral therapy to three adults. Through these additional supports we helped these adults achieve their goals including getting a job and working to graduate from high school on the honor roll.

• In Wisconsin nearly 6% of children with disabilities, ages 3-21, who received special education services have autism.


Autism Services

• In partnership with Marquette Hilltoppers Football Team and UWM Women’s Basketball Team we hosted inclusive sports clinics that touched over 140 children with autism and their siblings.

“My daughter and son attended the inclusive sports clinics for children with autism & their siblings. I cannot say what an incredible experience it was for us all! They both enjoyed learning football and basketball skills. Our daughter benefited tremendously from the clinics which helped her build the confidence to go on to participate in two separate community teams in the spring. We are grateful to Easter Seals for providing these opportunities for children on the spectrum to learn & participate in the same activities other children enjoy!”

Respite Services

“We are so proud of the accomplishments our son has made with the help of Easter Seals! His future looks bright and we are truly grateful!”


Autism Services Respite Services

“I was so nervous to have my son start summer camp as he is autistic and has a difficult time with new transitions. After his

first day, I was so relieved when he came home and LOVED IT!

The staff did an AMAZING job!”

Respite improves the quality of life for the participant and the caregiver.

• Each year there are 65 million Americans who care for loved ones with a chronic illness, or disability, or the frailties of old age.

• We provided summer respite to families plus a safe and nurturing environment full of fun to over 250 children and young adults in Milwaukee and Waukesha.

“Easter Seals respite camps are the best. My son loves them and I’m always pleased to see him smiling when I come to get him

at the end of the day.”

“I know he is loved and safe.”

“I feel like a different person because of Easter Seals respite programs. I have time to myself and I am not

trying to juggle responsibilities while I am trying to work.”


Adult & Senior Support Services

“It really helps our peace of mind to know our mom has a compassionate, caring, knowledgeable team!!!

We are so grateful!!!”

Easter Seals provides services, support, and choices for adults with disabilities and their caregivers, so that they can continue to live with dignity in their communities. • 50% of the adults who attend a recreational class

program also feel that they have increased their independence.

• In 2011, our Easter Seals Case Management Services grew to serve over 300 people. This service provides needed coordination and services to adults and seniors to improve overall quality cost-effective care in the community of their choice instead of nursing homes. These services have a cost savings of $452 per month per person for Wisconsin’s Medicaid program.

Workforce Training

• Easter Seals provides over 75 recreation classes in summer, spring, winter and fall for individuals ages 16 and up. These classes offer our participant’s time to socialize and foster friendships, enhance daily living skills and increase their independence. Classes offered are driven by our participants interests, hobbies and suggestions.


Workforce TrainingProject SEARCH provides real-life work experience combined with training in employability to help young adults with disabilities make successful transitions from school to competitive employment.

• Project SEARCH provided employment training for six young adults in 2011-2012 through internship rotations within Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin.

• Each intern served three, 10-week internship rotations within the hospital in various departments such as the Histology Lab, Pharmacy, Distribution Services, Imaging, and Neuroscience Clinic. • The Project SEARCH model involves a core academic staff; but numerous departmental peers, co-workers and mentors also assist in their success throughout their internships.

• The national unemployment rate for adults with disabilities is 13.5% for those seeking employment. Through the training received in Project SEARCH,3 graduates were employed immediately after completion.

“Having Joey in our department was a win/win situation for everyone. The staff took an instant liking to him and it was a lot of fun to watch him

grow with confidence and new skills,” James Sauceda, Director, Nutritional Services for

Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin.


Workforce Training

Project SEARCH was developed in 1996 by Nurse J. Erin Riehle, then the Director of the Emergency Department at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. As the flagship program, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital provides technical assistance for replication and overall leadership to Project SEARCH worldwide.

Workforce

“It was wonderful to observe him improve his technical skills as well as

develop positive relationships with staff members.

Drew was always open to feedback and took constructive criticism extremely well. I eagerly give my endorsement of Drew’s skills and professionalism without qualification and with the

highest praise. Drew would be an asset to any team.”

Lead Neuroscience Coordinator, Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin

“Project SEARCH gave me the opportunity to show how I work hard and to overcome some of my challenges. I got the chance to grow and I became a stronger person.”

Project SEARCH is an Easter Seals collaboration with Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin and the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation that provides employment skill building through classroom instruction, career exploration, and job-skills training in strategically designed internship rotations within Children’s Hospital.


Workforce

• Last year Easter Seals provided over 250 individuals with basic work skills training, job placement and coaching to help them gain the job skills to seek competitive employment.

Easter Seals believes that everyone has the ability to work!

“ During the recession, businesses became more specific in their requirements and are now looking for individuals who possess a wide spectrum of skills that enable them to fulfill aspects of multiple job roles. As a result, many employers are struggling to fill positions

as they wait to find the perfect fit candidate. Rather than waiting, employers need to start embracing

the teachable fit model, hiring individuals who may not immediately possess the necessary hard skills, but have a learning mind set and can be up skilled

according to the business needs.”Jorge Perez, Senior Vice-President, Manpower North America

• 264,00 Wisconsinites with disabilities are underemployed or unemployed and are dependent on government payments to survive.

• Easter Seals paid $550,000 in wages to our participants in Waukesha in 2011, allowing them to reinvest into the local economy.


Workforce LilyWorks

“With some help from my job coach at Easter Seals it was easier to stay up

when I was tempted to give up. They were consistently with me through multiple stages, and acting as a go between, they got me in the door.

Now, I work with people I enjoy, I’m always learning something new and

giving back to the community.”

• Last year we worked with 76 participants with goals of community-based employment. Of these individuals, 30% gained work experience through temporary employment with 13 employers.

• 10 individuals found a permanent job in companies like GrayLine Inc., Steinhafl’s, Walmart, Pick N Save, Petco, Neptune Power Wash, Bruno Independent Living Aids, Inc. and Schlotzsky’s Deli.

“In his first 18 months of employment with Grayline, Michael has only missed one day of work. He also is consistent and accurate when working on jobs and exceeds our productivity rates on a regular basis.”- Chris Hansen, Production Manager, Grayline Inc.


Our LilyWorks Social enterprises are a valuable vehicle to provide meaningful training and employment for people with disabilities in areas of catering, cleaning and commercial landscape maintenance. These work environments offer community basedand inclusive work skills training.

• LilyWorks offered opportunities to nearly 50 individuals with work barriers to help them develop transferable employment skills, earn real pay and the confidence to seek permanent employment.

Workforce LilyWorks New opportunities working in the real world.

“Michael has always been outgoing but his job has made him even more

confident and positive.”


LilyWorks Camp Yellow Ribbon

Because of her community-based job, Melissa could afford to move into her

own apartment in 2011.

She also took the cooking skills she learned through LilyWorks to prepare

her own healthy meals.

In 2011 LilyWorks launched private label water and coffee products as a new social enterprise.

These and other innovative micro-businesses offer Easter Seals new avenues for training and provide new earned income resources.

Social enterprise helps our workforce participants discover, grow and develop work interests.

Your support of our private label water promotes training opportunities and work experiences for individuals with disabilities.

• LilyWorks provides Easter Seals with a diversified funding source for our Workforce Training Center, making it less reliant on government funding.

• LilyWorks contracts including: cleaning, catering, landscape maintenance, contract services and private labeling sales generated over one million dollars in sales during 2011.


LilyWorks Camp Yellow RibbonEaster Seals Camp Yellow Ribbon is a week-long summer camp for children whose parents serve overseas in service of our country.

• Children with one or more parent on long-term deployment in Iraq or Afghanistan have a higher chance of mental health problems and this diagnosis increased with the length of deployment, particularly among boys and girls whose parents were deployed for more than 11 months. 1

1 Published in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Nov. 2011, Vol 165, No. 11 > Study in pediatrics conducted by Dr. Gregory Gorman, a military-based commander and assistant professor of pediatrics at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Md., and lead author of the study.

Military bases are known to provide the largest support network for families enduring a deployment. Many children share deployment experiences, and schools often provide programs, including deployment support groups. But most military families, including most who attend CYR, do not live on a military base so Easter Seals has developed this specialized camp to ensure that we are supporting military children and families no matter where they live. 1

Walk With MeCamp Yellow Ribbon

“I really like how all the kids there can relate to my dad being in the army because at school

when I get sad about my dad leaving a lot of the kids say I’m too dramatic. At camp

everyone is understanding and camp is so much fun! I’m coming back next year!”

• Last year Camp Yellow Ribbon served 43 military children ages 7-14.

“I felt like people understood me and that I could share because they are

military kids too.”

This specialized, overnight-camp gives military children the opportunities to bond, mentor, heal and just be a kid.

Through typical camp activities like fishing, hiking, swimming, archery and of course camp bonfires, campers are able to share their fears and struggles with peers who understand this unique experience and helps them cope with their parent’s absence or other family strains related to service.
