A MESSAG E FROM O UR E XECU T I V E DIR ECTOR

Dear Friends: Syracuse, NY is known for many things. Loyalty to our local sports teams, the State Fair, four beautiful seasons. Our ability to deal with snow. We recently received a distinction, though, that no city wants. A 2015 study on poverty in America ranked Syracuse first in the nation for concentrated minority poverty out of the 100 largest metropolitan areas. The study examined data from 2009-2013 and found 33.2% of Syracuse’s population lives below the federal poverty line. Those are a lot of numbers. Here’s the bottom line: in our city of 144,000 people, there are 48,000 individuals living in poverty. That’s one out of every three people. Catholic Charities has been working to alleviate poverty for decades. For us, these dispiriting numbers strengthened our resolve to carry out our mission. For others – including many of our donors – the study sounded an urgent alarm. In 2015, we began discussions with the Allyn Foundation about our burgeoning social venture initiatives. These programs, including Project Joseph and the Culinary Arts for Self-Sufficiency Program, provide a promising pathway out of poverty for some of the most vulnerable members of our community. In early 2016, we received some exciting news. The Allyn Foundation agreed to partner with us to strengthen these initiatives, starting with a grant of $85,000. Thanks to their support, we’re not just training workers, we’re creating jobs. Yet, tackling poverty requires sustained interventions at many levels. There is no single solution. We can’t ignore neighborhoods if we care about alleviating poverty. We know kids thrive if they have caring, consistent relationships with adults and access to healthy neighborhood institutions. Many of our donors agree. Last year, Sheila Austin, The Community Foundation of Central New York, the Greene Family Foundation, the Dorothy and Marshall M. Reisman Foundation, and the John Ben Snow Foundation all stepped forward to fund desperately needed renovations and repairs at two of our neighborhood centers – Vincent House on Syracuse’s Near Westside and Bishop Foery on the Southside. Each year, we provide parent education and youth development programs for hundreds of kids and families at these Centers. We have seen the positive results. Thanks to this generous support, these families can continue to make the steep climb out of poverty and achieve stability. Make no mistake. The causes of poverty are many, the consequences long lasting. We know Syracuse is home to many people living in poverty. And yet, Syracuse is also home to people who are proud of their community and have deep reservoirs of resilience. You will read more about them in this report. You will also read about our staff, volunteers and donors who are pushing back on pessimism. Together, they are building a community not characterized by punishing poverty but distinguished by citizens determined to create lasting change. I am proud to be part of these efforts. Every day, I am humbled by our dedicated and talented staff. Every day, I am grateful to our volunteers and donors for their support and their unyielding commitment to Catholic Charities and all of the people we serve. Sincerely,

Michael F. Melara Executive Director

ANNUAL REPORT 2015

OVERCOMING

CRISIS A box of rigatoni. Two cans of black beans and a jar of peanut butter. Some cornflakes, toothpaste and three rolls donated by a local bakery. A quick pantry volunteer with the building’s layout memorized pulls these items and a few more off worn but neat shelves, packs them in a paper bag and ferries them to the waiting room of our downtown emergency services center. The people serviced by our Crisis Response programs often arrive in dire straits – they are out of food, their electricity has been shut off, they can’t come up with next month’s rent. However motivated they may be to better their situations, they are unlikely to overcome their immediate obstacles without assistance. Catholic Charities’ Crisis Response programs get at the heart of our mission to create hope and transform lives. These programs provide relief for individuals and families facing immediate crisis situations. They encompass food pantries, emergency shelters for men and families, relocation, homeless prevention and financial support for meeting immediate needs such as medical and utility bills. In 2015, we served over 2,000 people and distributed over 51,000 meals at our food pantries and shelters in Syracuse. Our shelters hosted an average of 186 people every night.

CATHOLIC CHARITIES OF ONONDAGA COUNTY

About 20% of the people who benefit from our emergency services are children under the age of 18. They are kids living in dire situations in some of our poorest neighborhoods. Children who experience extreme poverty are at high risk of living in poverty as adults; it is vital that they get extra support to navigate obstacles and find success. We met the needs of these children in new ways in 2015 when we transitioned our Dorothy Day House from hosting single women to hosting women with children. The grim reality of extreme poverty can be draining for Catholic Charities’ staff. Often, the need is great and the resources thin. But our work is possible because of the tireless support of our dedicated volunteers and donors. Together we give people the means to rise above their immediate crises and achieve stability. n

Door-Opening Experience “Hank’s incredible,” says Carol Schaffer, director of Emergency Services. “He’s been volunteering here for 30 years. And if that’s not enough, every Tuesday, he brings us coffee. So Tuesdays are good days to be here.”

1558 PEOPLE FOUND SHELTER WITH US, INCLUDING 71 CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18

230 VOLUNTEERS DONATED 1350 HOURS

When Hank arrives five minutes later, balancing the predicted tray of coffee, he shrugs off Carol’s praise and teasing. He says he was simply looking for something to do and a way to serve the community back in 1986, and helping people get food seemed like a sensible, direct way to do that. More recently, he joined the ranks of the Ignatian volunteers. The Ignatian Volunteer Core, or IVC, is a Jesuit organization that matches individuals age 50 and up with local volunteer options. Hank chose to remain with the food pantry. The value of Hank’s experience is evident as he interacts with staff and clients. He greets most people by name. He was born and raised in Syracuse – his family owned Centore’s Men’s Shop downtown – and his seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of local streets and parishes comes in handy when people need to find pantries closer to their homes. He is quick to joke, laughing when he notices the sign on the front door is incorrectly flipped to “Closed.” Hank jumps up to fix the sign, noting as he does so that people are clearly accustomed to the door being open; the word “Closed” hasn’t stopped anyone all morning. When asked what has changed in his 30 years of volunteering, Hank says: “We have more case workers down here than we used to, which is nice, so we can get people other kinds of help. But apart from that,” he says, gesturing to the slowly filling waiting room, “the beat goes on.” The beat does go on; the stream of people in need at the pantry is steady and has been for years. But the response of volunteers like Hank has been just as consistent. Their dedication makes it possible for hundreds of people every year to work through their crises and move on to more stable lives. n

ANNUAL REPORT 2015

A Seat (and High Chair) at the Table Many are familiar with the preparations necessary for welcoming a baby into a home. Corners must be rounded, outlets covered and wobbly lamps secured, not to mention the necessary supplies, clothes and food. The staff at our Dorothy Day House recently experienced this on a large scale when the shelter was modified in November from housing single women to housing women with children. “The changes we made, it’s just incredible,” says Kathleen Hayden, director of our Dorothy Day House family shelter. “Gates on stairs, different food purchases, different clothes, getting cribs, bed guards, supplying diapers… everything one family would do for one baby, we needed to do for a house with 18 people.” The change has involved a lot of trial and error as staff members figure out which outlet covers and baby proof gates will effectively foil toddlers’ attempts at breaking through them. The staff rose to the task, and so did the donors and volunteers who support the shelter. Kathleen happily relays the aid they’ve received since making the change: donations of baby supplies, a play set in the backyard, toys, diapers and more. Kathleen, who has a background in maternal and child health, enjoys working with the kids and moms, and happily reports the shelter’s success. “We had one week with eight babies under age two,” she says with a laugh. “Eight! And they all need high chairs! We had to be very resourceful that week just to seat everyone at the table. We managed it, though – that was a proud moment.” n

ACHIEVING

STABILITY A day spent at our Northside CYO Refugee Resettlement Services can seem chaotic, but that’s understandable - there’s a lot going on. In 2015, we assisted over 1,600 refugees in Syracuse, almost a third of whom are children under 18. They came from 15 different countries and received assistance on site in 16 different languages. Almost all of this work takes place in our 16,540 square foot CYO building on North Salina Street. The chaotic surface belies the successful stabilization work done in this building. From the noise and rush, we work to create individual success. What looks for a moment like mayhem is neighbors greeting each other. It’s staff members hurrying to ease conversations by finding a colleague who speaks a newcomer’s language. For people who have just arrived in Syracuse, often leaving behind desperate living situations, the dense network of support at the CYO is vital to their comfort and success. In 2015, we helped more than 1,000 individuals achieve stability through our Refugee Resettlement Program. Refugee families had access to English classes, preschool and after-school programs, summer youth programs, as well as assistance with immigration and citizenship paperwork. A full suite of employment services was available including orientation to the world of work, job readiness training, assistance with resume preparation and interviewing skills, job search assistance, job placements, and more. This translated to jobs for refugees in hotel services, food services, cleaning and maintenance, auto maintenance, retail, medical offices and small manufacturing. All of this work coalesces around a single outcome – to give all refugees in

Syracuse a fighting chance to rebuild their lives. All of Catholic Charities’ Stabilization Services foster predictability in living conditions, income, and personal health. In addition to our Refugee Resettlement Program, this includes our: • Supportive Housing Program which helps homeless or formerly homeless individuals and families find and maintain safe and affordable housing; • Elderly Services to enable older adults to remain safely and comfortably in their homes for as long as possible; • Heath Services Coordination which gives low-income individuals and families access to a coordinated and comprehensive suite of behavioral and medical health care services. When individuals and families achieve stability, whole communities flourish. But we can’t do this work alone. All of our Stability Services rely on volunteers, donors, parishes and partnering agencies to achieve our goals. Each year, we work together to help thousands of individuals overcome crisis and achieve stability. In turn, the people we serve are building stronger and more stable communities. n

Sorting the Mail (for dozens a week) “Oh, that’s not important,” says Pinyon, a continuing case manager at our Refugee Resettlement Services. A young refugee woman is questioning him about a letter she received in the mail. Her eyes widen when Pinyon tosses the letter in the recycling. “Not important,” he repeats. “Junk mail. You will get junk mail all the time here.” She frowns in confusion. “Wisdom,” Pinyon says, “can you explain?” Pinyon appears to be appealing to a cousin of the seven virtues, but he is in fact asking Wisdom, a Burmese refugee turned volunteer, to translate. Wisdom nods and explains to the woman, in their shared native Burmese, that the piece of mail isn’t something she needs to worry about. She is relieved and returns to placing items from the mail in front of Pinyon. This is what Pinyon does every week. He sits in the middle of the CYO offices on the Northside and fields an endless array of questions about the myriad forms involved in life as a refugee in America. He helps enroll kids for school, set up health care, explain notes from teachers, complete housing applications, apply for library cards, and much more. Refugee arrivals in Syracuse are assigned a case worker for their first three months in the country, but after that, their case is closed. For many refugees, three months of support is not enough to get on their feet, which is where continuing case managers like Pinyon come in. At the CYO he and volunteers like Wisdom are available to assist any who walk in the door with questions about navigating life in America. “It’s fine you’re confused,” Pinyon assures the next client. “It’s confusing. But we’ll figure it out.” n

Refugee Resources “It is a vegetable, not money,” *Maya tells her older sister, Devi. Devi peers more closely at the image of celery on her computer screen, part of a program for learning English.

600 REFUGEES RESETTLED

“You spelled ‘salary,’” Maya clarifies. “Is ‘celery.’” Devi brightens when Maya spells the word out for her and nods her thanks as she types it in. The sisters are working their way through a course in English at our Northside CYO, home to our Refugee Resettlement Services. Maya, who benefited from high school English classes in their native Nepal, is one of the star pupils in the class of seven. She has already finished the assignments for the day and has turned her energy to helping her classmates. Maya has been in Syracuse for five years. She doesn’t really like Central New York weather. She misses the sunnier skies of Nepal. But homesickness is outweighed by the fact that most of her immediate family is in Syracuse or relatively nearby in Toronto. Maya is a generous, somewhat teasing tutor. She coaches people gently but swipes away any cheat sheets she catches them referring to. “You cannot have just the words in paper, you need them in your head,” she reminds a young Ghanaian woman, Ami. Ami laughs and grabs for her cheat sheet, which Maya keeps behind her back until Ami correctly spells “pork.” Maya takes pride in using her knowledge of English to help her sister, family and classmates. She knows her English skills and experience in the U.S. are useful for more recent arrivals. As reported by Maya, the hurdles of immigration can be daunting, but given the kind of support she received and now gives to others, it is possible to clear those obstacles and start on a stable foundation for life in Syracuse. n *names have been changed

BUILDING

CAPACITY Many factors make it difficult for people living in poverty to reach their full potential. For kids in poverty, a lack of resources, safe spaces and adult role models can be devastating. For adults, language barriers and complicated personal histories can grind job searches down to a halt. Our capacity building programs help people overcome these barriers and live their fullest possible lives. These programs include pre-k, after school programs, parenting classes, counseling and social enterprises such as Project Joseph and Culinary Arts for Self-Sufficiency. The programs are diverse in design, but share the goal of enabling people to live hopeful, stable lives. We knew we had to leverage resources across many of these programs when we decided to undertake critically-needed renovations at our Bishop Foery neighborhood center in 2015. The center is an important place for children of Syracuse’s Southside and has seen a lot of use through the years. The facility, which has served as a neighborhood center since the mid-1970s, was in need of several upgrades. The initial work was completed by contractors with generous support from vital funders. As the scope of the work increased, however, we called in our Project Joseph team. Our Project Joseph workers are a unique group. Project Joseph is a social enterprise and offers on-the-job training to people struggling with homelessness, as well as to recent refugees. Team members gain valuable skills in property maintenance and repairs while earning income. Some Project Joseph clients transition easily to higher-paid employment outside of Catholic Charities, while others need on-going supportive service for a longer period of time. Many of the people we serve have complex needs that can’t be addressed by a single service or program. In response, Catholic Charities’ staff frequently collaborate, referring clients across programs and sharing knowledge and expertise. Our Culinary Arts for Self-Sufficiency program, for example, trains people in basic kitchen skills and is supported by our job readiness programs that help people navigate the job search process. In another case of symbiosis, clients accessing our Elderly Services can also take advantage of Project Fix, a program that helps seniors with minor home repair and, for larger projects, refers people to Project Joseph. Poverty is often cyclical – those born into it are at great risk of growing up into poverty – but support can be cyclical, too. Collaboration and cooperation are key to Catholic Charities’ success. A collaborative approach is resilient and sustainable. It gives the people we serve the best chance of achieving selfsufficiency and reaching their highest potential. n

The Ways of the Kitchen “They are determined to work; that’s what I really love about training them,” Gary Coe says, smiling as he watches his students exchange kitchen tips. “This is a great class. They’ve all been great.”

skills. Gary, a veteran of culinary arts instruction, is determined to give his students every opportunity to succeed. A chef himself, he knows what other chefs will expect of his students.

Gary Coe is the Program Coordinator of our Culinary Arts for Self-Sufficiency program (CASS for short). CASS is a social enterprise that teaches culinary skills to help students gain employment in the local food service industry. The program serves refugees living in Syracuse, and it recently expanded to include people born into generational poverty in Syracuse’s poorest neighborhoods. So far, over 170 people have completed the training through five-week, sevenstudent classes held in the industrial kitchen of our House of Providence headquarters.

“We spend a lot of time on knife skills,” Gary notes. “I mean – not every chef is like this, but some are; when they say they want medium diced potatoes, they want medium diced potatoes. Anything else is no good. So I make sure they understand all that, the ways of a kitchen, before they graduate, in addition to food safety. They’re better prepared that way.”

The program coordinates with other Catholic Charities programs to provide training in job searching, interviewing and resume writing, in addition to kitchen

Gary’s dedication pays off; he’s seen a lot of success in the first three years of the program. The job placement rate for graduates is over 88%. He stands taller when he says this, clearly proud of his students. “It feels good, you know?” he says. “It feels good to help people be successful like this.” n

Unforgettable Support “It’s a small building,” Sheila Austin says about our Bishop Foery Foundation, “but the benefit that comes out of it for these kids is huge.” Sheila Austin is one of many donors who made possible major renovations to the Bishop Foery Foundation on the Southside of Syracuse in 2015. The center – affectionately referred to simply as Bishop Foery – has been a community cornerstone for decades. It houses youth programs and mentoring, as well as a monthly fresh food market for the neighborhood. As Sheila notes, Bishop Foery is not large, and the small space has been well-loved and well-used for years. Thousands of kids thundering through take their toll, and by mid-2015, the center was in need of substantial repairs and remodeling. There was paint peeling, couches sagging and floors cracking. The bathrooms needed to be redone, including creating handicapaccessible stalls. The necessary repairs were a bigger project than our maintenance staff was able to tackle. Grants and funds from organizations and private individuals were vital to getting this work completed. Sheila understood the need at the center and the ability of supporters to make a difference. “An unbelievable amount of work is done at Bishop Foery to help the kids on the Southside,” says Sheila. “It’s a neighborhood that is, I think, in many ways forgotten. So when I had the opportunity to help, I knew I had to.” n
