I I think we would all agree that we are living in times that are so different than they were only a couple of years ago. What we used to know as usual and customary is a thing of the past. It is imperative that HGH, like all businesses, looks at how we provide services and supports to individuals with disabilities. We must look to see

what we can do more effectively and efficiently to better meet the needs of those we serve.

One of my favorite quotes is from W. Edwards Deming, an American statistician, who said, “It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory.” The HGH Board of Directors, Management Team members and stakeholders spent over six months this year developing a Strategic Plan so that HGH could continue to meet the needs of our community and the people who count on us every day. The plan was formally adopted by the HGH Board in September and will provide the roadmap for us as we continue the vision our founders had in 1967 when HGH began providing services! Out of our Strategic Plan came a new Mission and a new Vision Statement for HGH…

Mission Statement“…To improve the lives of those we serve…”

Vision Statement“…To be recognized as the premier provider of a dynamic spectrum of individualized services supporting persons with special needs…”

HGH is committed to breaking down barriers and to encouraging people with developmental disabilities to fully integrate into our community and to enjoy all that San Diego has to offer – it is America’s Finest City! We have our work cut out for us, but I know that our dedicated staff, Board of Directors, Board of Governors, Volunteers, Supporters and You will be there to support HGH as we navigate the numerous challenges in front of us!

We continue to be proud of our long history of accomplishments and are equally as proud of the accomplishments achieved this past year. A few of the highlights include: • Awarded East County Chamber of Commerce Nonprofit of the Year • Assuming ownership of three community based homes for children and youth ages 8 –

22 with significant behavioral challenges • Expanding services for children (from birth to three years old—Early

Childhood Development Services) supporting 100 – 120 families a month

• Added services to an additional 80 families in need in our Respite Program

• Successful fundraising events that have allowed us to bridge the gap between what we are paid for services and what it costs to provide quality supports

In closing, I want to again assure you that I am dedicated to accountability and efficiency. Every donor dollar and every penny that comes into HGH is spent wisely, helping to create the quality of life that we all strive for.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about HGH, my door is always open.

With warmest regards,

Mark R. Klaus ExecutiveDirector

2012ANNUAL REPORT

When you first meet three-and-a-half year old twins Maya and Dexter, you would never know their pediatrician suspected developmental delays at one year of age. Fortunately, new parents Charles and Car-

rie were referred to the California Early Start Program through the San Diego Regional Center to receive early childhood intervention services. Thanks to a multidisciplinary team of speech therapists, occupational thera-pists, physical therapists, and an HGH Early Childhood Educator, the twins are thriving! When Moji Afcari, one of Home of Guiding Hands’ Early Childhood Educators, started working with Maya and Dexter, they were a few months shy of their sec-ond birthday. Maya needed help with her gross motor skills and both she and Dexter had speech delays. Moji used a combination of evidence-based curriculum, combined with play-based techniques and strategies, in order to provide early intervention services tailored specifically for each twins’ development. The twins enjoyed playing with chunky puzzles, crawling through mesh tunnels, jumping on a small tram-poline, doing crafts with objects found on their nature walks, and reading from picture books. Unknown to the twins, all of this fun was designed to help them achieve age level development skills, so that they were on equal footing with their like-age peers. Today Maya loves puzzles, swings and books; Dexter is enamored with his mon-ster trucks, helicopters and motorcycles. Their favorite outdoor activities are going to the beach and playing at the local playground. This summer they start-ed taking swimming lessons. Maya was a bit hesitant at first, but Carrie says now she loves swimming and it’s hard to get her out of the pool! Most of all, the twins are verbally communicating their needs, wants and desires clearly and without hesitation. Language and communication delays are no longer a concern.“It’s so comforting to have these resources available. Carrie and I are so grateful we learned about the Regional Center, and so glad we were able to work with Moji and Home of Guiding Hands,” remarked Charles. Home of Guiding Hands is fortunate to have expanded its scope of services to the community since assuming operations of Supporting Alternative Solutions in 2011. SAS brought progressive expertise in Early Childhood Development.HGH now provides a continuum of services for all ages. To learn more about the Early Childhood Development program at Home of Guiding Hands, please contact Mary Moser-Cooper, Director of HGH Early Childhood Development Services at (619) 938-3058 or email marymc@guiding-hands.org.

We are pleased to announce that Home of Guid-ing Hands assumed the operations of the Charles I. Cheneweth Foundation (CICF) on

July 1, 2012. CICF provided transportation services to in-dividuals with severe and profound mental and physical disabilities. This merger allows HGH to add daily fixed route transportation to the services we offer to the over 800 individuals with developmental and intellectual dis-

Transportation Services

abilities and their families that we currently serve. Pre-viously, transportation to and from Adult Day Programs was provided to over 100 disabled adults through a con-tract with the San Diego Regional Center.

CICF was established in the memory of Charles Che-neweth, who worked to expand the safety net for peo-ple with developmental disabilities in an effort to im-prove their quality of life and to bring together people from all over San Diego with the same passion. At HGH, we share the same passion that was the guiding force for Mr. Cheneweth.

Funding for this specialized service is provided by the San Diego Regional Center. For more information, please contact HGH Transportation Coordinator, Matt Dunn at (619) 741-4242 or matt@guidinghands.org L

Three hundred guests attended the 38th Annual Heart and Hand Gala on Saturday, June 16th at the Rancho bernardo Inn. Presenting spon-sor Grossmont Healthcare District was recognized for their support and

generosity to Home of Guiding Hands throughout the years. The blumberg and Delsen families were honored for their ongoing dedication to San Diegans with developmental disabilities.

other major sponsors included the bill and norma Verbeck Foundation, American Airlines, Delsen & Company LLP, The Law office of Isaac blumberg, Emerson network Power, San Diego County Credit Union, barona Resort and Casino, The bloom Family Foundation, Viejas band of Kumeyaay Indians, and Union bank. This year’s 1940’s new york nightclub theme was “Meet me at the Copaca-bana.” Guests had the opportunity to purchase cigars and raffle tickets from roaming Cigar Girls, sample martinis and cosmos donated by St. Petersburg Vodka, and take fun snapshots in the photo booth. HGH was excited to intro-duce bidPal, an electronic bidding device, to all event attendees. bidPal was a huge hit and significantly increased event profits!“During the entire year of very hard work by everyone in our Gala Committee it was amazing to experience so many sponsors and donors open their hearts in support of HGH. Then it was even more rewarding to see each and ev-ery one in attendance bid high on our donations, making this Meeting at the Copacabana the most successful fundraising event for HGH in recent years. our hearts are overjoyed, and it motivates us to do our best to surpass our fundraising in 2013” said co-chairs Luis and Marsha nunez. We are thrilled to announce that we raised nearly $95,000. 100% of the proceeds go directly towards the programs and services for the 800 children, adolescents, adults and their families we support on a daily basis.
