Programs and Services - YWCA West Central Michigan

annual report
2003-04

Dear Friends,
The last twelve months have been filled with new beginnings.
The most visible change is our new brand – a striking, modern color, logo, and look that represents an invigorated
national organization; one rich in history and experience, and one that links its local associations
through a common identity and agenda. While the look is new, it represents a mission that has been at the
heart of the YWCA from the beginning – to empower women and eliminate racism. With this collective
purpose and identity comes the clarity, focus and muscle to strengthen the position of women throughout
our country.
One particular effort which was begun last year has now come to fruition, yielding immediate to benefit
staff and customers, and promising even more in the future. The YWCA successfully implemented a
customized database that allows us to electronically and comprehensively manage all customer records
for the first time. Ultimately, this improvement will help us better develop innovative, stronger responses
– individualized and systemic – to address issues of violence for survivors and our community.
The YWCA’s Health Fitness Center saw dramatic changes in its look and direction as well. After significant
research and heartfelt consideration, the YWCA Board of Directors voted to convert the pool facilities into an
area for land-based fitness services. Because net pool-related expenses (not otherwise offset by pool-related
revenue) accounted for a significant portion of the Health Fitness Center’s total expenses, the decision was
made in order to strengthen the Health Fitness Center’s financial outlook. Additionally, it helped to better
ensure that overall organizational resources could be adequately distributed among all YWCA services. While
difficult, the result has more than doubled the space available for equipment and provided permanent homes
for group exercise classes. The shift from aquatic to land-based programming has also expanded the YWCA’s
ability to partner with downtown organizations and businesses related to their internal wellness programs.
With an eye to the future, particularly related to the issue of domestic violence, we are looking to expand our
community role even further. The YWCA has accepted an invitation to participate in our local community’s
initiative, “Vision to End Homelessness”, which aims to end local homelessness within the next ten years.
Given that most homeless women and children are so as a result of domestic violence, we believe our organization
has a strong investment in ensuring the initiative’s progress. The coming year will also see the
YWCA partnering with the West Michigan Hispanic Center in an effort to create stronger, more culturally
competent interventions for victims of violence.
In total, the year has been a momentous one and more details are included in the following pages. We continue
to find strength from the lessons of our past and are emboldened by the promise of what is to come.
For your role in all of our success, we offer you the YWCA’s deepest thanks.
Sincerely,
Bridget White, Chairperson Caroline “Carla” Blinkhorn,
Board of Directors President/CEO
Our Mission:
Empowering Women, Promoting Diversity and Advocating for Justice and Equality

The YWCA of Grand Rapids...
has been a place of hope, healing and renewal since 1900. During that time, the YWCA
has renewed itself time and again in reponse to the changing needs of women. Today,
our services work in concert to address the issues of violence against women and children
which undermine individuals, families, and our community. With comprehensive services,
participation in community-based solutions and ongoing education, our vision is a
community that demonstrates a commitment to creating a nurturing, violence-free environment
for women and children.
For families experiencing the trauma of incest and non-familial molestation, the YWCA
provides Child Sexual Abuse Treatment Services. Components of our treatment program
include individual, family, marital, and group counseling, as well as educational
and support groups.
The YWCA’s Domestic Violence Services have been an integral part of our programming
since 1977. One of Michigan’s leaders in responding to the issue of domestic
violence, our services have evolved to include crisis intervention, a domestic violence
shelter, specialized counseling for victims and assailants, and a long-term transitional
housing component to equip and educate women so they can support themselves after
they transition out of the shelter and the cycle of domestic violence.
The YWCA Girls Inc. Program offers girls ages 9-18 opportunities in math, science,
sports, health and sexuality, technology, as well as a wealth of other extracurricular activities,
after school and during the summer. Using the nationally regarded “Girls Inc.”
curriculum, the YWCA helps girls build their self-esteem and confidence, set boundaries,
and develop healthy relationships with adults.
Seen as a key component to overall health and personal renewal, the YWCA’s Health
Fitness Programs have existed in various forms since the organization was established
in 1900. Today, we pride ourselves on maintaining a comfortable, “come as you are” environment.
We offer a variety of programs for women, seniors, men, and families – providing
a safe place where people can heal and grow stronger in mind and body.
Through the YWCA’s Sexual Assault Services we assist approximately 700 victims of
sexual assault each year as they work to rebuild their lives. Noted as one of the most
comprehensive programs in Michigan, the YWCA’s Sexual Assault Services include
critical crisis intervention, individual and group therapy, and short-term respite services
for victims unable to return home. The YWCA’s nurse examiner component is also our
community’s resource for medical-forensic rape examinations.
Our Mission:
Empowering Women, Promoting Diversity and Advocating for Justice and Equality

Programs and Services
Child Sexual Abuse Treatment Services
With research showing that between 25 and 30 percent of children are victims
of sexual abuse before they reach adulthood, the YWCA’s Child Sexual Abuse
Treatment Services continue to be a critical part of our community’s response
to this issue. In 2003-04, the YWCA served 352 families (761 individuals).
Despite the dynamics surrounding sexual abuse that often results in early withdrawal
from treatment, the YWCA was able to retain 91 percent of clients in
longer-term therapy. During the year, 140 families completed treatment with
an increased capacity to live free from sexual violence.
The majority of referrals to our program from Medicaid/ Community Mental
Health are now of children who are also in foster care. Not only are these
children experiencing struggles associated with sexual assault, they also face a
myriad of issues associated with being removed from their families and being
placed in foster care. The result has been an increase in the proportion of
children entering our program with multiple challenges.
YWCA Girls Inc. Program
One year after the conclusion of our pilot period, dramatic growth was seen throughout the
YWCA’s Girls Inc. Program. This is due, in large part, to a strengthened partnership with
the Grand Rapids Public Schools and increased interest in Girls Inc. programming. The result
was an enrollment of 328 girls -- more than twice that of the previous year. As the only
Girls Inc. licensee in Michigan, the YWCA is in a unique position to support girls in our
community.
With the program mission of strengthening developmental
assets (internal and external strengths/skills that help keep
children safe), participant surveys continue to show the
effectiveness of Girls Inc. for this population -- 92 percent
report an increase in developmental assets that focus on
support, empowerment, boundaries and expectations, commitment
to learning, positive values, social competencies
and positive identities.

YWCA Domestic Violence Services
Victims of domestic violence often face substantial barriers that inhibit their abilty to gain
independence from their abusive partner. The YWCA’s Domestic Violence Services effectively
address many of those issues, making it possible for victims to gain access to critical
services that help them acheive safety and independence.
In 2003-04, the YWCA sheltered 448 women and children at the Domestic Crisis Center.
The weak local job market, combined with the dynamic of domestic violence wherein
victims have often endured economic and social isolation for years, continues to lengthen
the average stay. In 2003-04, that increased to 20 days which is an overall increase of 33
percent since 2001. However, the additional time has been put to good use. Over 90 percent
of residents who stay at least 10 days complete a safety plan unique to their situation
before leaving the Domestic Crisis Center. Eighty-seven percent report that they are able
to maintain a safer lifestyle for six months after leaving.
In January 2004, in order to empower survivors in their vocational planning with Project
HEAL, we created our Resource Library and Center. Staff offer career assessments, guide
participants in completing or continuing their education, collect information on employment
options, and even provide introductory computer classes. Participants are also given
their own email accounts, access to the library’s informational resources and use of three
computers. To date, 71 percent of participants have utilized the Center.
Our counseling services are a vital complement to our shelter and transitional housing
programs, effectively working to overcome the psychological and behavioral elements of
domestic violence. Ninety-two percent of those participating in either victim or assailant
counseling are able to identify the dynamics of domestic violence unique to them upon
completion of counseling.
Sexual Assault Services
YWCA Sexual Assault Services provide critical interventions for victims so that they can
cope with the trauma of their experience. During 2003-04, the YWCA served 684 clients
through our Nurse Examiner Program, crisis line, and counseling and support groups.
As evidence of the YWCA’s importance to this population, 88 percent of individuals
concluding a course of crisis counseling or individual therapy reported a decrease in
symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
As part of the Kent County Sexual Assault Response Team, the YWCA Nurse Examiner
Program has gained national recognition for its progressive, collaborative efforts in addressing
the issue of sexual assault in our community. As one of eighty-eight original
applicants and one of just eight selected teams, the Kent County Response Team was
invited by the End Violence Against Women International Project to attend their October
2004 national conference entitled “Making A Difference”. We anticipate the information
gleaned from our experience there will prove extremely helpful to our community as we
work to strengthen our efforts even further.
Programs and Services

Programs and Services
Health Fitness Services
The benefits of health and wellness
are significant, not just for the
population at large, but particularly
for individuals working through the
trauma of victimization. In 2003-04,
18 percent of clients in YWCA counseling
programs reported utilizing
Health Fitness in conjunction with
their traditional treatment. When
Health Fitness Center Photos Courtesy: John Corriveau Photography used as a complement to the YWCA’s
other programming, the goal is to
reduce stress, isolation and increase self-esteem, body image, and overall feelings of well-being. In
total, the YWCA served 386 families (703 individuals) through our Health and Fitness Services.
The Health Fitness Center also underwent a major
renovation in the Summer of 2004. As a result of continued
financial struggles brought on by the significant
expenses associated with operating our 83 year-old pool,
the Board of Directors voted to shift the Health Fitness
Center’s focus from aquatic programming to land-based
programming. This was done in order to help better
The YWCA relies on private support to continue
offering critical, often life-saving services,
to victims of violence. In 2003-04, a number
of YWCA friends organized events to benefit
those we serve. Some of these included: the
Women Lawyers Association of Michigan-
Western Region, the Honorable Order of
the Blue Goose International, Leon Plastics,
and the Vagina Monologues. Along with the
YWCA’s own annual fundraisers - Circle of
Women, Run Jane Run, and TRIBUTE!, over
$140,000 was raised for the YWCA.
stabilize the financial picture
within the Health Fitness Center
and to better allocate
resources organization-wide. The renovations more than doubled the
space available for equipment and provided permanent homes for group
exercise classes. The shift has also opened new opportunities for the
YWCA to partner with downtown businesses and organizations as an
adjunct to their employee wellness efforts.
Private Community Support/ Events
Trim Quest employees volunteered for a full week to spruce
up the YWCA’s Domestic Crisis Center. Throughout the
year, Trim Quest has donated care packages, bunk beds,
privacy hedges, and funding to repair windows throughout
the Center.

The YWCA of Grand Rapids is pleased to recognize six women whose active participation
in our organization helped further the YWCA’s mission and strengthened
our community. It is because of their exceptional contributions that they have been
honored as the namesakes of the YWCA’s giving circles which pay tribute to today’s
generous YWCA supporters.
As one of the YWCA’s early leaders, Grace Dyer Hunting led the capital campaign in
the early 1920s to build our current Sheldon Boulevard facility. Aided by her fundraising
committee, $567,000 was raised in just seven days. A civil rights leader, Helen
Claytor blazed the trail for later generations when she became board president of the
YWCA of Grand Rapids in the late 1940s and again in the mid-sixties when she assumed
the position of board president of the YWCA of the USA. Educator, attorney,
social activist and later candidate for the Fifth Congressional District, the YWCA was
well served by Jean McKee who led the organization as its board president during the
tumultuous times following the local race riots in 1967 and 1968. Frances Rutherford,
the first female city physician in the U.S., directed her commitment to public health
toward the establishment of the YWCA’s predecessor organization – the Women’s
Gymnasium and Noon Rest – in the late nineteenth century. Rutherford and others,
including Emma Wanty whose extraordinary fundraising ability and active leadership
in numerous offices, helped establish the YWCA and strengthened its position as an
important community resource. One of the YWCA of Grand Rapids’ earliest African
American volunteers in the 1940’s, Loney Clinton Gordon played a leading role in the
research that led to the discovery of the Whooping Cough vaccine. Like her YWCA
peers, her contributions extend well beyond our organization and even our local community.
Today, we see further, because it is on their shoulders that we stand.
