New Star Impact Report 2023

Thankyou!

Dear Friend,

We are pleased to present New Star's Annual Report on behalf of the Board of Directors and staff

At the core of New Star's mission is the belief that every person with an intellectual /developmental disability deserves the opportunity to lead a fulfilling life and be an active member of their community

Throughout the agency, our focus this year, and moving forward, is a commitment to person-centered care and community inclusion. Person-centered care puts the individual in charge of their choices. Social and community inclusion broadens and creates an increased sense of dignity, well-being, and self-esteem Our programs provide support and empowerment to individuals Our leadership is committed to the belief that the individuals we serve are at the center of their decision-making.

None of this would be possible without the help of our generous donors and sponsoring organizations I also want to thank our staff, family members, volunteers, sponsors, and community supporters Your partnership and your support are, and always will be, greatly appreciated. Together, we are spreading kindness and creating a world of inclusion.

Most sincerely,

Dan Strick President/CEO

AMother'sStory

Like most mothers, Margaret Clark was extremely protective of her son, Richard.

"When you have a child with a disability, you build your own safe space," she said. "And, I was determined that I was the best one to protect him. He would stay home with me, and I was the best person to care for him "

But Margaret admitted she didn't realize how small Richard's world had become after graduating high school. They had a daily schedule, but it often meant that Richard would spend long hours alone. Margaret knew he missed the interaction with his friends

As time passed, Margaret saw Richard regress and knew there had to be a change She decided to bring Richard to New Star's Community Day Services program in Chicago Heights in 2019.

In New Star's Community Day Services, the program prioritizes the development of community-based living skills, such as using public transportation, accessing learning opportunities, participating in wellness activities, and utilizing local services.

However, the consumers are the decisionmakers in their day The program employs the three Es daily: Educate, Experience, and Exposure The consumers plan their day by sharing ideas and listening to staff who guide them. Ultimately, it is a group's decision on what experiences they want. Consumers in the Community Skills Program spend 80 percent of their time in the community

"I am amazed at the experiences Richard has had at New Star What a difference it has made in his life. I know I would not be taking him into the community like he does at New Star. But those experiences have expanded his world and made his life so much richer," Margaret said

"This is what I wanted for him It may have taken me a while to get there, but I can never go back," she said.

LivingTheirLivesTheirWay

Sarah has always wanted to live in an apartment, make her own decisions, and be surrounded by her things, including her beloved cat

Sadly, she faced roadblocks throughout her life that took away her rights and choices But that changed when Sarah asked for help from a relative and became a New Star consumer shortly after.

She now lives in a perfect garden-level apartment that allows animals and a roommate in Crown Point, IN New Star supports her 24 hours daily and she also was able to rescue a cat

New Star provides support for activities of daily living, self-care, and mobility with the hands-on assistance, prompting, reminders, supervision, and monitoring needed to ensure the consumer's health, safety, and welfare.

"I know what to expect during the day, but I get to choose," Sarah said who informs her staff what she wants to do by using her picture schedule

Sarah makes all the choices in her day, and her staff assists her in her activities, whether going out with friends or even to a night out at the First Look for Charity event in Chicago.

"Her independence and the ability to make her own decisions is extremely important to her," said Debbie, her aunt

"She has learned to advocate for herself Everyone at New Star is listening to her and doing an am her aunt said.

EmploymentReadiness

FromDishwashertoAssistantManager,Seantakesiton

Sean, a New Star consumer, always wanted to work out in the community His goal was to find a job that he loved, wasn't seasonal, and was near his home

He began his trial with Panera Bread in Homewood, IL as a dishwasher in February 2019

At first, Sean had to become familiar with the fast pace of the restaurant With coaching from his New Star Employment Specialist, he soon got the knack

It was only a short time before he asked his manager, Mary Pyle, if he could come in and take on extra hours

"Of course I said yes," she laughed

Sean's work ethic has paid off In March 2023, Sean was named Assistant Manager of Panera

"We just love his passion for his job, and the employees just love him," Mary said "He is always going to give his best That's what you want in an employee "

When consumers express a desire to work in the community, they are referred to our employment specialists, who are trained to guide them through the DRS (Division of Rehabilitation Services) referral process

As an Employment First organization, we provide our consumers access to programs designed to assist them in finding work, including the DRS Milestone program, Supported Employment Contracts, and Illinois Ticket to Work

Givingbackandlearningnewskills

Research has shown that volunteering can be a successful pathway to employment in addition to contributing to a community and learning new skills

As part of our Community Day Services program, New Star consumers volunteer throughout the community.

Once a week, a group of consumers works at the Bloom Township Food Pantry in Chicago Heights Consumers also volunteer for Respond Now at two Chicago Heights and Sauk Village locations Consumers assist the diaper bank and food pantry and put together hygiene kits for people experiencing homelessness.

The consumers also volunteer for Meals and Wheels in Will County once a week and are on their backup call group if another group cannot make their rounds

Consumers deliver the meals, knock on the door, and converse with the home-bound senior

CommunityLiving-LivingtheGoodLife

New Star has 22 agency-owned and two privately owned Community Integrated Living Arrangements (CILAs), licensed through the Illinois Department of Human Services. The houses are the consumer's homes where they make choices on what to eat, how to decorate their room and home, and what activities they want to pursue

In addition, we also have two independent apartment buildings that provide consumers the opportunity to live on their own with minimal support New Star, I-CILA program provides services for individuals who live independently but still need outside supports Some of our consumers live in our homes and apartments, while others live in their own residences. Individuals are assigned their own coordinator and personal support worker who help them achieve the goals listed in their Individual Support Plans

Thankyou.
