When six-year-old Jessica* first came to Family Service of the Piedmont’s Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) she was terrified. She spoke softly and only when necessary.She would not make eye contact and was very untrusting.She was afraid her motherwould find out she wastelling what her mother’sboyfriend had done.

For over a year, hermother’s live-in boyfriendhad taken his hostilitiesout on Jessica. She hadsuffered significant injuriesand on multiple occasionsrequired medical attention.Her mother lied and covered up the abuseso teachers and medical staff never intervened.Eventually, however, a report was made to theDepartment of Social Services, who referredJessica to the CAC.

Child Victim Advocate Cristin Hassell insisted that Jessica see a doctor, who confirmed head trauma, although her mother continued to deny the abuse. After CAC staff had completed their forensic interviewprocess withJessica, her testimony eventually led to childabuse charges and the subsequent arrest of her mother and the boyfriend. Jessica was given permission to live with her father.

Hassell remembers, “Once I told her the judge said hermother couldn’t be around her until he said so, and that

mom’s boyfriend couldn’t be around her at all, she was like a totally different child. She gave a huge sigh of relief andkept looking skeptically back and forth between me and herdad and asking “Really?” and “Are you sure?”“

“Then,” Hassell remembers, “she smiled so big and started jumping up and down hugging me andfiring off questions to her dad so fast he hadn’t evenanswered one question before she was asking more.”“Could they have pizza for dinner? Could they go tothe park when they got home? Was he going to buyher more clothes and toys or was he going to get her stuff from mom’s house? Would Santa know she lived with him now?”

Once she realized she was safe, Jessica seemed to become a totally different child.

Through counseling at Family Service, attending the Children’s Witness-to-Violence group, and herfather’s love, she is healing. Jessica still carries thescars from those injuries, but she hasn’t let themstop her from being a cheerful and outgoing childfull of energy.

“There were a lot of obstacles to making sure things went theway they were supposed to on this case,” summarized Hassel.“I devoted a large amount of time to it for months, a lot ofit afterhours, to make sure this kid didn’t fall through thecracks again. But every minute of it was worth it for that one moment standing in the courthouse hallway, watchingthe anxiety and fear disappear from that girl’s face that day.It’s one of those things I won’t ever forget.” *Client’s name has been changed

The FFRCconducts a full range of educational programs and activities forparents and children.

Recently volunteers from BB&T’s Triad Corporate Centertraded their professional attire for tennis shoes and work gloves,rolled up their sleeves and got to work helping the FFRC with along list of projects.

The FFRC staff was amazed at all the volunteers accomplished.Program Manager Andrea Dalporto said, “They did more todaythan we would have been able to accomplish in one year.

The programs and services we provide the community are soimportant, but our staff is small and our resources are extremelylimited. We are so grateful for their help. They have transformedthe center!”

Dalporto sums it up, “Thank you BB&T volunteers for thetremendous contribution you have made, for your willingness to give and for your support of our mission.”

Message from the President“The key to abundance

is meeting limited circumstances with

unlimited thoughts.” - Marianne Williamson

As we wrap our fiscalyear, Family Service of the Piedmont remains strong to its commitment to provide high-quality,

high-impact programs for our community.However, like most nonprofits, sustainablefunding continues to be our greatest challenge. Fortunately, we have been successful in meeting this challenge by utilizing a multi-prong approach: adheringto a strong and dynamic strategic plan; diversifying our program funding streams as much as possible; communicating a strong community impact statement for our programs; and focusing on increaseddonor engagement in order to increasefundraising dollars.

As a result, we enter the new fiscal year with a renewed sense of purpose and drive. Our programs, like the Children’s Advocacy

Center and the Fairview Family ResourceCenter, continue to restore hope and stability to our community. Our staff, who are the life-blood of the agency, continue to go above and beyond the call of duty in their unwavering dedication toour clients and our mission. And our volunteers and donors continue to supportthe positive impact Family Service has in our community. All of this creates an atmosphere of abundance and allows Family Service to thrive!

As we head into summer, I hope you will join me at the 7th Annual Jamestown PigPickin’ on August 6th for an evening ofBBQ, southern dishes, a silent and live auction and music by U.B.U. This is alwaysan enjoyable way to support Family Service!Additionally, our Annual Meeting will be atnoon on September 26th at the SedgefieldCountry Club. A former client will speakabout how our services impacted his life andI will share the state of the agency, as well aspresent our annual Julia B. Nile For Love ofFamily Awards. Both of these events shouldnot be missed. See you there!
