Dear Friends,With growth comes responsibility, and at ACHIEVA we do not take our responsibility lightly. ACHIEVA has stood the tests of a challenging economy and increasing community needs all the while staying true to its mission of providing lifelong supports for people with disabilities and their families.

Built on a strong foundation of advocacy, ACHIEVA was founded in the 1950s by a group of parents with a common passion, to ensure their children with disabilities had the same chances in life that all children should be given. Since then, ACHIEVA has been committed to providing innovative and industry changing programs and services for individuals with disabilities and their families.

Each year, ACHIEVA grows in staff, customers and support services. ACHIEVA currently operates from more than 100 different locations and is the service provider of choice for more than 12,600 individuals and their families. ACHIEVA is southwestern Pennsylvania’s largest provider of lifelong services and supports for people with disabilities and their families. As a nationally recognized leader in health and human services ACHIEVA created innovative supports, such as ACHIEVA Family Trust, for individuals with disabilities and their families.

ACHIEVA continuously advocates for legislation and policies in the areas of education, housing, transportation, early intervention and home and community based services. For over 60 years ACHIEVA has set the pace for others to follow.

ACHIEVA has woven a clear path for growth and looks forward to the future as we plan more innovative programs to meet the needs of this region.

We look forward to another great year!

Sincerely, Marsha Blanco Suzanne ParksPresident and Chief Executive Officer Chair, ACHIEVA Board of Trustees

Year in ReviewACHIEVA Early Intervention

ACHIEVA is a premier provider of early intervention, with more than 50 years of experience supporting infants, toddlers and their families. ACHIEVA is known for its innovative programs and advocacy on behalf of children with developmental delays from birth to three years of age. ACHIEVA also provides preschool readiness programs for two and three year olds with developmental delays to help them prepare for transition to preschool.

Many families choose ACHIEVA because it provides lifelong services: there is comfort in knowing that one organization can provide the services a family member may need during the school-age years and beyond.

• Enrollment for early intervention increased nine percent • Families chose ACHIEVA Support 35 percent over other providers• Over 180 children have enrolled in the preschool readiness program since it started in 2005• The Arc of Westmoreland started its preschool readiness program in 2011, and 19 children are currently enrolled• Collaborated with ABOARD to begin planning for services for children with autism in both Allegheny and Westmoreland counties

It’s just like a little preschool. It really gives them real world experience. And though my son is blind, they’ve adapted it so he is participating at the same level as the other kids, which is excellent.”

Advocacy Accomplishments

ACHIEVA requested and was granted a seat on the Medical Assistance Advisory Committee which provides the Department of Public Welfare with advice about access to and the delivery of health care services to low income individuals and families.

ACHIEVA’s disability advocates provided support to the Education Law Center and the Homeless Children’s Education Fund in their efforts to get Senate Bill 157 passed which established within the Department of Education a task force on homeless children’s education. It was signed into law by Governor Corbett on July 5, 2012.

ACHIEVA’s advocates worked with others across the state to urge legislators to include a waiting list initiative in the Governor’s FY 2011 – 2012 budget. As a result, 700 graduates and 431 elderly caregivers will receive services during the coming year.

ACHIEVA’s Disability Healthcare Initiative staff provided the leadership on Senate Bill 532 which was signed into law by Governor Corbett as Act 40. Act 40 mandates insurance coverage for general anesthesia for children under the age of seven years and individuals with developmental disabilities for whom a successful result cannot be expected under local anesthesia.

ACHIEVA provided comments on the following: Pennsylvania State Plan on Aging; the Center for Medicare and Medicaid’s Proposed Rule on the Medicaid program’s Plan on Home and Community Based Services; the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare Plan for its Shared Living Program and the Allegheny County Port Authority’s Proposed Fare and Service Changes.

ACHIEVA’s disability advocates provided testimony during House hearings on the waiting list crisis and the devastating effects of the proposed block grant.

Dylan was born prematurely and suffered from a significant lack of oxygen to his brain, resulting in spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy, uncontrolled epilepsy, severe obstructive sleep apnea, scoliosis, cortical vision impairment and intellectual and developmental disabilities. Dylan requires a private duty nurse to care for him at night while his family sleeps and also during the day when they work. Dylan is unable to attend public school but his teacher comes to his home three days a week. His parents work hard to ensure his social needs are met since he isn’t able to have typical school interaction with other children. Everyone in Dylan’s life play a significant role in making this happen, everyone from his friends, nurses, teachers and family members. Dylan’s mom Carrie says, “When they say that it takes a village to raise a child, they really weren’t kidding.”

Dylan’s family was introduced to ACHIEVA Family Trust in 2004. At that time Dylan was five and a half years old. “I remember the day that we had our initial meeting with everyone at the Trust. I was incredibly nervous but quickly realized I had no reason to be,” Carrie recalls. “All of the staff members were very kind to us right from the minute we walked through the door and they still are eight years later.”

ACHIEVA Family Trust adds a unique and vital case management and social work component to the traditional role of the trustee.ACHIEVA offers life planning services for individuals with disabilities and their families, including a personal planning guide to help families collect and update information about their loved ones. Creating a special needs trust also helps an individual with

a disability remain eligible for government services. ACHIEVA works with individuals with disabilities and their families to ensure that proper govern-ment support services are being provided. For Dylan, the trust has been a supplement to his medical needs when insurance coverage wasn’t enough. “It has helped us to pursue alternative medical avenues, it has helped by paying for medical travels as well as his leisure travel. We always make sure we offer Dylan the opportunities to experience joyful things in his life since his life is bound by so many medical issues and treatments. The Trust has always been good to Dylan in that respect.”

At ACHIEVA we know and understand the challenges people with disabili-ties and their families face, especially when planning for their financial future. ACHIEVA Family Trust now has over 1,900 accounts for individuals with disabilities and their families.Establishing a trust account with ACHIE-VA Family Trust offers some peace of mind to families working to ensure that their loved ones are taken care of in the future. “They are the gate keeper so to speak when it comes to Dylan’s funds. They ensure that all monies are being used for Dylan’s benefit, just as it should be.”

Dylan is now 14 years old and as I look back I can’t believe how quickly the time has passed. Dylan’s health has waxed and waned over the years and at this point we have been told that he has end stage respiratory disease. We know that Dylan’s time here on earth won’t be forever but we also know that we take each moment that we have together and we make them count. Life is a gift and it’s because of Dylan that we truly understand that.

Eight Years with ACHIEVA Family Trust“I never thought that we would need to even think about needing a special needs trust for one of our children but since we do, I am proud to say that we love ACHIEVA Family Trust”

–Dylan’s Mom, Carrie

I am confident in knowing thatI can pick up the phone or email someone at ACHIEVA and they will always greet me with a friendly hello, a smile and offer us a helping hand.”

“

All of their (ACHIEVA) guidance throughout the years has helped me to learn more about being proactive for my son and to get some of the things that we have needed for Dylan”

Four years ago Shannon and her husband had their second child, a beautiful baby girl they named Abigail Grace. In the midst of their excitement and joy for their new addition their lives were changed forever. “In our discharge paperwork there was a small yellow piece of paper,” Shannon recalls. “Our daughter had failed the newborn hearing screen and just six weeks later we learned that she was deaf.” News of Abigail’s condition sparked doubt for Shannon. She wondered if she could parent a child that she knew nothing about, if she could be a good mom to a deaf child. Therapists with ACHIEVA showed her she could.

ACHIEVA’s early intervention is designed as a family training model. By providing services in home and community environments therapists are able to teach families the skills necessary to promote their child’s growth and development in the context of their everyday life. ACHIEVA therapists show families how to incorporate learning opportunities throughout the child’s day, giving the family the tools and confidence necessary for their child’s improvement. “Our therapist helped me to realize that I could do this, that I could be a good mom to a deaf child. She was not only my guide in an unfamiliar world, but also my source of strength.”

There are several different techniques and approaches to caring for a child with a disability. It’s important for families to decide what approach works best for them and stick with it. Therapists at ACHIEVA are trained to educate and help families implement the best approach, guiding them every step of the way.

“There are two different schools of thought on how best to educate deaf children, the oral-auditory approach and the total communication approach. As Abigail approached transition, we needed to make a decision on which philosophy best fit our family. Our ACHIEVA therapists visited preschool options with us, connected us with other families and provided resources that illustrated the benefits of each philosophy. We chose to educate our daughter using a total communication approach and we feel confident that was the right choice for our family because our therapists provided us with so much vital information.”

Just as Shannon’s extraordinary efforts became ordinary the family was hit with another diagnosis that would greatly impact their lives. Abigail lost all remaining residual hearing in her left ear, which meant the family had to make some decisions about Abigail’s care moving forward. Faced with another tough decision, Abigail received a cochlear implant in May 2011. “I once again found myself in an unfamiliar world full of anxiety. How could I take care of this piece of equipment that was worth more than my parents’ home? How could I learn to use it? How can I convince her to wear it? Did we make the wrong decision?” With help from ACHIEVA therapists the family was able to make it through. “ACHIEVA therapists provided ideas on how to adapt our schedules, continuous instructions on how to use the equipment, how to maintain it and countless hours of working one-on-one with Abigail to grow with it. “

From once being the mother unsure of how to care for her little girl, unsure if she had the strength and knowledge to care for a deaf child, to a mother confident enough to soon after welcome her third child. One month after Abigail’s cochlear implant was activated Shannon gave birth to a baby boy, Jameson Andrew who, like his sister, was also deaf. Jameson was immediately enrolled in early intervention services with ACHIEVA and paired with yet another wonderful therapist. “I have learned so much in the last four years about how to be a strong parent and advocate for my child. Our therapist comes up with techniques and ideas that I haven’t seen before. She is a wealth of wonderful information and not only focuses on Jameson, but on our whole family.”

At four years old, Abigail is enrolled in a specialized preschool program that utilizes total communication. She is bi-lingual, communicating in English and and American Sign Language (ASL) and will start kindergarten at her local elementary school next year. Jameson, is now 15 months old and is learning several signs and beginning to talk. As for mom, “I have grown from a scared, anxious parent into a strong advocate for my children.”

A Mother’s Will“I have grown from a scared, anxious parent into a strong advocate for my children.”

–Abigail and Jameson’s mom, Shannon

This is what early intervention success really looks like; this is what ACHIEVA therapists have given my family over the past four years.”

“

“I was given a lifeline in the ACHIEVA therapist that my daughter was paired with.”

In the 2010 – 2011 fiscal year volunteers and staff of ACHIEVA, once again, demonstrated great leadership at the local, state and national level on issues affecting people with disabilities. ACHIEVA was able to effectively execute its mission while keeping local families informed and supported.

The staff at ACHIEVA is dedicated to always providing the highest quality of Customer Service to our customers. We strive to continually exceed the expectations of our valued customers. ACHIEVA believes its customers are the people we provide support to, their family members and friends and any person who seeks information or assistance from ACHIEVA. ACHIEVA feels it is important to acknowledge employees when they have gone the extra mile to ensure that the customer’s needs are met and expectations are exceeded.

ACHIEVA is introducing an Employee Customer Service Recognition Program to recognize employees for providing exceptional customer service. If you have received outstanding customer service from an ACHIEVA employee or feel that an employee has gone above and beyond your expectations, please take a moment to nominate that person. You may nominate someone by filling out a recognition form online by visiting www.achieva.info and clicking on Customer Service Recognition Program under the tab ACHIEVA News.

If you have any questions, need additional information or would like to nominate someone, please contact Michelle Bowser, Director of Quality Assurance, at 412-995-5000 x517 or email: mbowser@achieva.info.

ACHIEVA’s Employee Customer Service Recognition Program

“Please realize that no matter how small the problem we appreciated all you did for us which, at times, felt like you were saving our little world. We are thankful for your efforts and hope you continue to provide this excellent service to your community.”

March 23, 2013ACHIEVA’s Pittsburgh Promenade Auction Westin Convention Center Hotel, Pittsburgh

For additional information, contact Connie Reilsono at 412-995-5000 x404 or email creilsono@achieva.info.

DATESto Remember

Ensure Your LegacyHere are two simple ways to name

ACHIEVA in your estate plans.

First, you can include us in your will. To include ACHIEVA in your will, you may use the following statement in your will or codicil:

“I give, devise and bequeath to ACHIEVA, a Pennsyvania not-for-profit corporation, with offices presently located at 711 Bingham Street, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 15203, the sum of $_______.”

Second, you may list ACHIEVA as a beneficiary in your insurance policies.

To do so, ask your employer or insurance agent for a copy of your insurance beneficiaries form. You may then list ACHIEVA as a beneficiary. You will likely need our Federal Tax ID number 25-1505216. You or your estate may receive a tax deduction when the policy is executed.

If you have already included us in your estate plans, please let us know by contacting Jamie Rhoades via email: jrhoades@achieva.info or at 412-995-5000 x526, so that we may properly recognize your gift.
