In 2019, FSL celebrated its 45th year in service to Arizona! We have much to rejoice this year, including program expansions, prestigious awards, and increases in organizational capacity and resiliency. With your partnership, FSL will be able to support Arizonans in need for another 45 years and beyond!

This past year, we heard much about the nationwide housing crisis. But, did you know that Arizona ranks third worst in the nation for access to affordable housing? While we know that many factors contribute to the shortage of affordable housing – market forces, policy decisions, and demographic changes – and that it will take significant collaborations on the part of local, state, and federal governments, we are proud to add several hundred units of affordable housing to Arizona’s stock over the next few years. In 2019, we opened The Marist on Cathedral Square, an 83-unit affordable senior housing community in downtown Tucson. We also entered into the final phase of South Phoenix Village, a partnership with City of Phoenix to build 126 new energy-efficient, affordable homes for sale to income-qualified families. While we are marching into a new decade, we have four multi-family projects in various stages of development, and we continue to look for more opportunities to bring affordable housing options our state.

In addition to quality affordable housing, we also provide nutritious meals programs to nourish seniors in their homes and in our centers, health and wellness programs to allow seniors and adults with disabilities to age with dignity, and support for family caregivers who are often working full-time while tending to their caregiving responsibilities. With your support, we helped 32,789 Arizonans in need last year!

When you review our annual report you will see that by partnering with FSL you are impacting many lives throughout our communities.

In 2019, FSL realized some pretty amazing achievements:

• Our Home Improvements program expanded in several ways: we were awarded a contract to expand our Weatherization and Home Repair services to the City of Tucson; we received funding from APS for a new multi-family weatherization program; and we partnered with the City of Tolleson to administer their major rehabilitation program.

• Our Real Estate team was recognized with several awards including the SRP Champions of Energy Efficiency Award for South Phoenix Village, an Historic Preservation Award from the Tucson-Pima County Historic Commission for The Marist on Cathedral Square and both projects were awarded with Housing Hero Awards from the Arizona Department of Housing.

• Our Chief Operating Officer, Carrie Smith, was presented with the ATHENA Valley of the Sun Honoring Athena Inspired Leaders (HAIL) Award for Fostering Collaboration.

• Our Assisted Group Living program implemented a new electronic medication reconciliation software to better manage medications for residential behavioral health clients.

• Our Adult Day Health Services (ADHS) program initiated a new customer satisfaction protocol, Listen4Good, with a grant provided by Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, Inc through Fund for Shared Insight, which returned a net promoter score of 93 (industry average is 80), meaning that 93% of caregivers would recommend FSL’s ADHS program to someone else.

• Our reputation as a teaching organization has grown significantly to include agreements with Grand Canyon University, Arizona State University, Creighton University, Seton Hall University, The Ohio State University, Walden University, and several community colleges to benefit student interns in the fields of nursing, social work, nutrition, recreational therapy, and behavioral health.

We could not accomplish this much without our many partners in the faith, healthcare, government, corporate, and philanthropic communities. We thank you and hope you will continue to support our mission throughout 2020.

Who We Are & What We Do Financials

FSL, also known as Foundation for Senior Living, has been caring for Arizonans of all ages since 1974. Our mission is to provide home and community-based services and develop energy-efficient, affordable housing to promote health, independence and dignity for all.

We focus on four areas of essential need:

Safe Home: We develop single- and multi-family homes throughout the state of Arizona. We also offer services to help homeowners stay in their homes. Last year, we provided weatherization services and accessibility modifications to more than 4,378 homeowners throughout metropolitan Phoenix.

Nutritious Meals: We provide 472,302 pounds of food to families in need from our food pantries in Peoria, Phoenix, and Wickenburg. Additionally, we served 52,825 congregate and home-delivered meals last year.

Health & Wellness: We promote independence while enhancing and maintaining the highest functional quality of life possible for our clients through our home and community-based services. Last year, we provided nearly 348,000 miles of safe, reliable transportation to clients, allowing them to visit the pharmacy and grocery store, and attend medical appointments.

Caregiver Support: We provide several respite options for family caregivers, including non-medical home care and adult day health services. Our Caregiver Educatonal series offers complimentary one-hour presentations on a variety of topics. Our Caregiver House is open for caregivers to explore options for accessibility modifications and durable medical equipment. Our Care by Design resource navigation program provided 1,909 referrals to clients and caregivers last year.
