STORY OF RESILIENCE AND RECOVERY FROM FOSTERCARE TO FREEDOM

A LETTER FROM GJR PARENT COMPANY BOARD CHAIR

I am honored to address you for the first time as the Board Chair of George Junior Republic (GJR), a long-standing and valuable organization, and its affiliates. It is a privilege to lead the governing board during such a transformative period, and I am excited to share current and future plans with you.

From the beginning, GJR has been dedicated to changing young lives to contribute to society positively. While that remains the primary goal today, over the past 24 months, the organization has developed new and exciting programs that touch additional population groups (e.g., youth services including secure detention and school-based therapy and adult services including balanced and restorative justice, mobile medication, and mental health treatment).

These additional residential and in-home community service programs are founded on the organization’s mission and its continued commitment to engage the entire person and support the mental,

physical, and emotional needs while teaching responsibility, citizenship, and skills to help those served grow into productive members of society.

While our roots are strong, the landscape has changed since our origin. Today, providers like GJR are expected to provide evidence-based programming. We are proud to say that we are aligned with these expectations as we continually assess our existing and prospective programs to ensure their relevance and effectiveness. This commitment to staying in tune with what our funders and communities are asking for is a testament to our dedication to enhancing the quality of life of those we guide.

Throughout this report, you will see our many accomplishments over the past year. To our dedicated staff who have been here day in and day out, we extend our heartfelt thanks. Your unwavering commitment is what makes a difference in the lives of the youth and families we serve. To our communities across Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio, and beyond, we are deeply grateful

for your support.

Your belief in our mission and your continuous backing are what enable us to make a real impact.

Together, we will continue to innovate and expand, ensuring we meet the growing needs of our communities.

Best regards,

A LETTER FROM CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

The fiscal year 2023-2024 marked many milestones for George Junior Republic (GJR) and Affiliates, including the initial operating year of many new service lines across the system. It also marked the beginning of more to come for FY24-25.

This past year could be summed up as a reset to 2019, my first full year as CEO at GJR. The pandemic was considered a slight detour in the road; we are again moving forward with new initiatives, growth opportunities, partnerships, and Board of Directors leadership.

I want to thank the board leadership officers who served for the past six years for their steadfast commitment and guidance.

The new normal will continue to be challenging – an opportune time for growth, change, and development. GJR in PA will continue expanding new specialty residential complex case programs for youth. In addition, GJR in PA was recently awarded a new youth

Secure Detention program in Fayette County, continuing its mission to meet the needs of our stakeholders and their communities.

GJR in IN continues its march by expanding service lines with its new Independent Living Preparation Program (ILPP) for young adults. Preventative Aftercare is starting new communitybased services for children and families in Crawford, Venango, Washington, and Mercer counties.

With the support and guidance of new Board leadership across the affiliation for FY24-25, I am excited to have the opportunity to continue to work with a dedicated and professional Board of Directors and administrative staff. None of the mission is possible without the diligent staff members of GJR and Affiliates. I am positive the best of GJR is yet to come.

Respectfully,

AGE PROGRAM ASSIGNMENT

KYLE JACOBS

GJR in PA | Alumni Scholarship

A Philadelphia native, Kyle Jacobs was born to teenage parents and spent most of his early life with his grandmother. Kyle longed to reunite with his birth parents. Still, when it finally happened, he discovered that the parental love he sought was overshadowed by a cult-obsessed mother, who initiated violence and framed him in the presence of law enforcement, and a physically abusive father, whose hard-knock disciplinary methods often left Kyle unconscious.

The abuse was noticed at his school, and soon after, Kyle was removed from his parents’ custody and began his journey in the child welfare system, eventually arriving at GJR in PA. Kyle admitted to frequent behavioral problems upon arrival due to the betrayal and mistreatment he had been experiencing from those closest to him. Although the disciplined environment at GJR in PA was challenging, it was at GJR in PA that Kyle was first exposed to valuable reading resources and gradually became an avid reader.

During his time at GJR in PA, Kyle was reunited with his grandmother, who advocated for the expeditious resolution of his case, allowing him to return to a stable home environment by her side. Kyle's love for science magazines and books eventually led to a successful academic career. He attended Virginia State University, then Columbia University, and recently graduated from the Harvard Graduate School of Education with a degree in Learning Design, Innovation, and Technology.

Kyle is an active member of the GJR in PA alumni association. He is passionate about mentoring and inspiring other young people who are in situations similar to those he once faced. Kyle understands the challenges youth from the child welfare system encounter in relating to those who have not shared their experiences. This self-inflicted barrier often prevents them from receiving the necessary support to succeed in life. Kyle’s long-term goal is to develop actionable social changes to assist and guide these youth toward his discovered paths of success.

DANIEL HOVERSTEN

A Pittsburgh native now residing in Florida, Dan Hoversten embodies the transformative power of structure and guidance that GJR in PA offers. By the time he arrived at GJR in PA in 2009, Dan had been placed in various other facilities due to a series of escalating criminal activities driven by substance addiction.

Despite the initial turbulence, Dan found stability and purpose at GJR in PA through vocational training, earning an American Welding Society certification from the Career and Technical Center under the guidance of Mr. Jenkins, a mentor who left a lasting impact on him. The certification and training paved the way for Dan to begin a career in welding, including tack welding on boats.

Although he enjoyed welding, Dan recognized his aptitude for numbers and decided to pursue higher education in business. Upon relocating to Boston, Massachusetts, Dan enrolled in Bunker Hill Community College, graduating in 2021 with a remarkable 3.9 GPA.

Dan's academic success continued as he secured a Dean’s List scholarship to Suffolk University, where he discovered a passion for finance and accounting,

FIRST DEVELOPED BY BOARD MEMBER NANNIE JEAN HAY

IN 1988, THE GEORGE JUNIOR REPUBLIC SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM HAS DISTRIBUTED APPROXIMATELY $2M TO SUPPORT THE VOCATIONAL, ACADEMIC, AND PROFESSIONAL PURSUITS OF GJR IN PA YOUTH.

ultimately graduating with a 3.6 GPA in Corporate Finance and Accounting. Following his graduation in May 2023, Dan embarked on an intensive job search, culminating in his employment at Korn Ferry, a management consulting firm, as a Financial Analyst in September.

When asked about his future goals, Dan aims to swiftly pay off his student loans and transition from renting to homeownership. He also plans to study for the Chartered Financial Analyst exam to advance his career. His two dogs remain a constant source of support and motivation.

Dan attributes his resilience and perseverance to the discipline and perspective he gained while at GJR in PA. He understands that many at-risk youth with similar backgrounds were never afforded such a life-changing second chance. This perspective fuels his determination to maximize his opportunity, committing to success and personal growth. Dan looks back at his time at GJR in PA with gratitude and appreciation for the discipline and guidance that set him toward a better future.

GJR IN PA

OFFICE OF VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION (OVR)

In FY23-24, GJR in PA strengthened its partnership with the Erie Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation Services by successfully implementing the Professional Connection Experience (PCE) program. This initiative equips GJR in PA youth as young as 14 years old with workplace readiness and a real-world understanding of professional opportunities.

Each PCE course includes 30 hours of classroom instruction, where students explore the fundamentals of various professional interests and essential skills needed to thrive in professional environments, combined with 30 hours of offcampus trips to local employers and job fairs.

Since August 2023, GJR in PA has completed four PCE classes, benefiting 38 youth. The program has delivered nearly 1,200 hours of practical on-site job shadows, informational and mock interviews, acquisition of vital paperwork, and networking opportunities with local businesses, including leaders in technical fields. Participants also get the chance to engage in character-building sessions or conversations with successful working GJR in PA alumni.

The PCE program at GJR in PA is based on the Employment and Soft Skills Manual, developed by the Pennsylvania Academic, Career, and Technical Training Alliance (PACTT),

which encompasses 27 essential soft skill groups required in any job.

Students who complete the course in good standing receive a stipend for their efforts and have the opportunity to continue their relationship with OVR after their placement at GJR in PA.

By the end of FY23-24, GJR in PA had distributed more than $23K in stipends from OVR, giving graduating youth a head start on their professional journeys.

Building on the successes of the PCE program, GJR in PA plans to expand its collaboration with the Erie Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation Services by introducing the My Work Program on campus. This initiative is designed to enhance the skills and knowledge acquired in the PCE classes by guiding youth toward securing internships or parttime jobs at no cost to municipal or nonprofit employers.

"George Junior has been an outstanding partner to OVR in serving students and youth with disabilities, referring students for group and individual vocational rehabilitation services, and helping students prepare for the transition from both residential placement and high school. We're very proud to partner with them to ensure students and youth achieve their job goals and their career aspirations."

- Jessica Johnson, Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor, Erie Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation Services, OVR.

"George Junior has been fantastic to collaborate with to provide Pre-Employment Transition Services to their students. They strive to prepare their students for life after graduation by helping students access both their first work experience and build their career path."

- Bridget Rizzardi, Early Reach Coordinator, Erie Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation Services, OVR

GJR IN PA | CARF ACCREDITATION

In March 2024, GJR in PA was honored to receive another three-year accreditation from CARF International for its Group Home program (Children, Adolescents, and Juvenile Justice), Residential Treatment, and Governance. The accreditation represents GJR in PA’s unwavering effort to continually enhance its service standards and commitment to improving the lives of the persons served.

The re-accreditation preparation process began immediately after the initial accreditation was achieved in February 2021. The CARF Committee, comprised of approximately 20 employees, met regularly to focus on continuous readiness for the accreditation survey that eventually occurred in late January 2024. Policies, procedures, and plans were reviewed and updated. Administrative and key management staff convened a year before the 2024 survey to ensure aptitude and readiness in their respective areas of responsibility.

Sandy Dillon-Dick, Risk Officer and CARF Project Manager, attributed the re-accreditation success to the team effort of GJR in PA’s employees, stressing the positive impression that the employee workgroup had on the CARF surveyors that inspired the recommendation of this process to other residential organizations within CARF’s network.

GJR IN PA | NONPROFIT PARTNERSHIPS

GJR in PA is pleased to welcome two local nonprofits to share its spacious campus this fiscal year. CEO Nathan Gressel spearheaded this strategic partnership, which marks a significant step in GJR in PA's ongoing efforts to amplify its impact within the community.

The Mercer County Adult Education Center (MCAEC), renowned for its dedication to providing free General Educational Development (GED), English as a Second Language (ESL), and other continuing education services to Mercer County residents, relocated to the GJR in PA campus in December 2023. Occupying the facility formerly known as the Special Needs 3 building, the MCAEC now enjoys expanded operational and storage capacities for its textbooks and classrooms. The new facility has enabled the MCAEC to increase its offerings beyond the existing curriculum. In a press release to the local Allied News, MCAEC's Executive Director Chelle Fuss complimented GJR in PA's timely support and praised the welcoming aesthetics of their new space.

Following closely in April 2024, the Grove City chapter of Days for Girls (DfG), an international organization committed to increasing access to menstrual care and health education globally, relocated to the former Special Needs 1 building on the GJR in PA campus. This relocation has afforded DfG Grove City ample space and availability to meet more frequently and house crucial materials and equipment. Besides producing sustainable menstrual product kits for local and international distribution, the Grove City DfG also maintains two community menstrual product reserves that offer disposable and sustainable options to two local school districts. DfG's leadership especially appreciates the assistance that GJR has provided during the move.

CEO Nathan Gressel considers these new relationships with local nonprofits a winwin collaboration that benefits the greater Grove City community and increases service opportunities for GJR in PA youth and adult residents.

GJR IN PA | ADVENTURE BASED TEAM BUILDING

The Adventure Based Team Building facility is a place where professionals can build individual and team skills to take back to the workplace. Community groups can use the Adventure Based Team Building facility to develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills. The Adventure Based Team Building program challenges groups to move from the ground to the sky in a safe, and fun environment. Certified counselor trainers are on hand every step of the way. Participants will work together to excel at accomplishing tasks while building trust, confidence, and success. Community and work environments are changing rapidly and the staff at GJR in PA is ready to help teams adapt to challenges and address changes within the workplace.

GJR IN PA | GREENHOUSE GRANT

In October 2023, GJR in PA received a Farm to School Grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. This funding facilitated the construction of a greenhouse that stands 10 feet tall and extends 20 feet long, featuring integrated heating systems to enable yearround operation.

Led by the Adventure Based Counseling team, the greenhouse program aims to educate residents about sustainable agriculture practices, fostering an appreciation for fresh, nutritious produce while demonstrating the labor-intensive yet rewarding production process.

Before the greenhouse's opening in May 2024, Grove City Agway and Grove City Busy Beaver provided resounding support by donating soil, seeds, seedlings, and other essential gardening tools to kick start the first growing season.

PREVENTATIVE AFTERCARE

FAMILY BASED MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES

In March 2024, PAC was awarded a contract to provide Family Based Mental Health Services (FBMHS) to child and adolescent HealthChoices members in Crawford and Venango counties. FBMHS aims to strengthen and maintain families by enabling parents to care for their children and adolescents with severe mental illness at home and reduces the need for out-of-home placement.

PARENTING INSIDE OUT

PAC won another contract in 2024 to introduce the Parenting Inside Out model to incarcerated parents/caregivers at the Washington County Correctional Facility. The program offers group sessions designed to assist parents/caregivers with effective communication skills, discipline, and relationship-building with their children. Parenting Inside Out is appropriate for both incarcerated mothers/caregivers and incarcerated fathers/caregivers who are parenting from prison.

TRIPLE P

In December 2023, The Pew Charitable Trusts awarded $300K to PAC to provide the evidence-based Triple P (Positive Parenting Program) training to PAC employees. Triple P elevates the ability of PAC professionals with the tools to teach parenting skills to parents and guardians of at-risk youth.

MOBILE MEDICATION

In 2023, PAC was awarded a contract with Westmoreland County to expand mobile medication services to adults with serious mental illness (SMI) within the county HealthChoices network. The program, comprising a registered nurse and a medication technician, bridges the communication gap that often arises between psychiatric outpatients and their inpatient treatment teams.

The program increases treatment adherence and supports better recovery outcomes by providing education and assistance with proper medication administration directly in the consumers' homes. After 15 months of operation, the program has served approximately 50 adults managing mental health challenges across Washington and Westmoreland County, assisting in the administration of psychotropic medications that significantly improve the consumers’ quality of life.

RESTORE

In July 2023, PAC received $375K from the Westmoreland County Department of Human Services (DHS) to provide Balanced and Restorative Justice programming to adult reentrants from Westmoreland County prison. The Restore program connects reentrants with community service opportunities and offers comprehensive support to help participants reintegrate into their community and fulfill their restitution and fines responsibilities.

GJR IN INDIANA

OLDER YOUTH SERVICES (OYS) GRADUATION PARTY

GJR in IN offers an annual graduation celebration to its older youth population. This event acknowledges the significant educational milestones these young individuals have achieved despite their challenging backgrounds. Graduating youth are honored with a celebratory meal shared with their peers and the presentation of diploma frames and personalized graduation gifts.

Starting in 2024, the event will be further enhanced with the introduction of individual scholarships for each participating youth, courtesy of the Emily Grace and C. J. Pack Honorary Scholarship Fund. Established by philanthropists Charles and Connie Pack in honor of their grandchildren, these scholarships recognize the diligence of the graduating youth and represent the donors’ heartfelt wishes for their future success.

INDEPENDENT LIVING PREPARATION PROGRAM (ILPP)

In September 2024, GJR in IN received $866K from Lilly Endowment, Inc. to establish the Independent Living Preparation Program (ILPP). This program expands independent living services to 14 - 18-year-old at-risk Indiana youth in child welfare and foster care, preparing them for adulthood and Another Planned Permanent Living Arrangements (APPLA). ILPP acclimates youth to independent living settings, addresses their need for vital documents, and enhances communication and organizational skills. The grant enabled GJR in IN to become the first provider in Indiana to offer early independent living services to this age group.

Donors Charles and Connie Pack and their grandchildren

BETTER TOGETHER

In addition to contracted service provision, GJR in IN fundraises annually to provide older youth with prosocial opportunities and life-event celebrations. One of these efforts is the Better Together triweekly event series, which serves 16 cities across six Indiana service regions and is expanding.

Participating youth lead in selecting meeting locations and activities that complement their independent living learning plans. Activities range from visiting arcades, zoos, and aquariums to running book clubs and exploring bookstores. Participation in Better Together builds youth confidence in daily settings and allows them to practice necessary social skills within a safe and supportive structure, surrounded by peers from similar backgrounds.

This year, the Better Together events will be supported by a GJR in PA alumnus and long-time donor through the Julann Brugger Scholarship Fund.

From Foster Care to Freedom

KEONA

Keona grew up in a challenging environment with both parents who struggled with methamphetamine addiction. From a young age, she had to mature quickly, often feeling isolated as she navigated life with minimal guidance. At age 12 she decided not to follow in her parents' footsteps and began working full-time while attending high school to support her mother and herself.

As a teen, Keona was arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia found in her mother's car, which led to probation. This encounter became an opportunity for growth. She met supportive individuals like Candace, Holly, Libby, and her probation officer, Hillary, who suggested foster care. At 18, Keona found stability in a foster home and joined the GJR in IN Older Youth Services (OYS) program, significantly improving her life.

Despite the stigma associated with foster care, Keona viewed it as an opportunity. As she prepares to age out of the program, she feels well-prepared and equipped for the future. She maintains a positive relationship with her sober father and is working on setting boundaries with her mother.

Keona aspires to attend college and build a better life, believing that anyone can overcome challenges with the right mindset, care, and support. She hopes her efforts will help foster youth be recognized for their potential rather than their circumstances.

A Story of Resilience and Recovery

JOY

Joy's life, marked by a tumultuous childhood in foster care and a long battle with substance abuse, took a transformative turn when she entered the Long Term Structured Residence (LTSR) program at GJR in PA. Her previous attempts at recovery through various rehabs and hospitals had been unsuccessful, leaving her skeptical about another program.

GJR in PA's comprehensive and supportive approach proved different. The structured care, personalized treatment plans, and dedicated staff created an environment where Joy felt truly understood and supported. Through individual and group therapy, educational workshops, and recreational activities, she addressed both her addiction and the underlying traumas.

Today, Joy celebrates nine months of sobriety—the most extended period she has ever achieved. She attributes her success to the program's unique environment and emphasizes the importance of personal effort, stating, "what you put in is what you get out."

Joy's story, from a challenging childhood to a life of stability and sobriety, underscores the impact of holistic care at GJR. Her journey inspires hope and highlights the possibility of recovery and a brighter future.
