The jusficaons supporng these acknowledgements are im-
pressive. In the past 10 years The Children’s Home has invested
$8 million in campus construcon and improvements. The or-
ganizaon has employed as few as 65 and as many as 110 peo-
ple. Currently, TCH supplies local businesses with employees,
our youth, via its life skills programming, job training and place-
ment. Within the 44-acre campus is green space in the heart of
a busy suburban community. We also invite the community to
our campus – from the legendary Bull Roast of the past to the
expanding Fun Day and Community Walk each spring. As an
organizaon, we relish in the emergence of many new partner-
ships with other service providers in the community, who assist
us with new and growing populaons and programs.
Part of The Children’s Home legacy is longevity. The Home was
established in history that dates to the Civil War. The need to
care for “orphans” created by the war has evolved to a full ser-
vice connuum of care, which includes community based ser-
vices. The Home has built a legacy in serving the needs of chil-
dren, youth, families, and all of the possibili�es of communies.
What I consider to be the most important aFribute of a legacy
is relevance. In my years as a Board member, I have personally
witnessed both challenges and successes. There is the looming
challenge at a naonal and local level with the diminishing
placement of youth in congregate care se�ngs – the hallmark
of TCH history and success. The success experienced in the out-
comes of working with youth placed at TCH, who now present a
new set of needs, is gradual, but impressive. Successes can be
witnessed through the tesmony of our residents, their person-
al expression in works of art displayed at our annual autumn
fundraiser – FACES, and perhaps most importantly through the
number of cap and gowns at the graduaon ceremonies of our
youth. This year’s summer camp will again introduce residents
to natural and cultural gems of the region along with swimming
in a revitalized pool. With all this acvity comes a sense of hope
– the real success.
LONGEVITY, RELEVANCE, and SUCCESS – a legacy leading to
endless possibilies for our residents and clients, leading to
endless possibilies for the community!
Susan P. Brown
While many youth in our care, over the years, may have had such experiences,
in most recent months and years, it has been brought to the forefront as a
growing populaon of youth to be served. Unfortunately, these youth, some
as young as 9 years old, experience physical, social, and psycho-sexual trauma
that plagues them for years.
One parcular resident came to The Children’s Home, filled with trepidaon
of the unknown and the unfamiliar. As treatment progressed, the resident
began to share, enlightening TCH staff of a series of circumstances and deci-
sions that led to this point in me. Even within the walls of the Diagnosc
Center, this resident began to experience a sense of freedom, being able to
envision a new world of possibilies, and discovering personal empowerment
never believed possible. The resident stepped down to the lesser-restricve
group home campus and is now a producve member of the community; the
resident is gainfully employed and diligently planning to live independently
and successfully in the community again. This result, while such a good
“survivor” story ending, is oPen quite rare due to relapse of the populaon of
vicms.
Human trafficking is not a new problem, but the extent of the problem may be
enlightening as well as disturbing. Reports of human trafficking in Maryland
have increased by 40% in the past year according to numbers provided by the
Maryland Human Trafficking Task Force. Along with the addional knowledge
gained in the area of human trafficking comes a percepon change of vicms,
survivors, but ulmately the community - change that allows service providers
to nurture with paence and compassion.
To insll these aFributes in programs, advanced and ongoing training is need-
ed for the staff, service providers, and the community at large. TCH Programs
objecves have begun to include opportunies for self-identy and discovery,
enabling empowerment versus relapse behaviors, with an ulmate goal of
reaching self-sufficiency. The program goals also include building on the
strengths of such clients, using their stories and voices to help others avoid
and/or leave the world of human trafficking.
Here at TCH, we hope to increase the endless possibilies of success that may
exist not just for human traffic survivors, but also for other youth, families,
and distressed communies. Our story is merely an illustraon, a fracon of
the myriad of intensive situaons that face the populaon of youth who come
to the Home. Especially over the last year, we have learned that our service is
a journey that we collecvely travel with all youth and families. We connue
to rely on the strengths of the families themselves, the resilience of the chil-
dren, the support of our partners, and response from the community to fulfill
our mission and vision.
It is our priority to learn more, adapt and expand programs, open the path to
a new journey, and exhibit empathy in abundance. The leadership and staff of
The Children’s Home want to create endless possibilies of success for those
served within its connuum!

A Message from the President A Message from the CEO The Legacy In January, the Greater Catonsville
Chamber of Commerce presented
The Children’s Home (TCH) with the
2014 Legacy Award. Recently, this
honor was followed by a nominaon
for a Balmore County Revitaliza-
on Award in the Instuonal Cate-
gory. These honors were an
acknowledgement of the organiza-
on as a community asset in Ca-
tonsville for nearly a century.
Our Story Inspiring stories of success help movate
us to connue to work for children and
youth in crisis. Fortunately, such stories
are abundant. One recent story has been
parcularly inspiring for all of us here at
The Children’s Home.
The story began with a situaon unfamil-
iar to many. The term is “Human Traffick-
ing.” Human trafficking has been labeled
“modern-day slavery.” The Children’s
Home has been providing a home for
minors who have been rescued from
that lifestyle.
