www.didihirsch.org /didihirsch.org @DidiHirsch @Didi_Hirsch Dear Friends,

Didi Hirsch looks at the big picture. The whole person. The whole family. So does this Annual Report.

We treat individuals across the lifespan, beginning with a special Zero to Five program for at-risk families with young children. In collaboration with partners, we also provide Integrated Care—focusing on mental illness, substance use and other illnesses. Integrated care also includes suicide prevention; about nine out of ten people who die by suicide have a mental illness.

Half of all mental health disorders emerge by the age of 14, but it generally takes seven or more years to receive help. Genetics and Adverse Childhood Experiences, which include growing up in a home or community with alcoholism, violence, emotional abuse and child abuse, can have a lasting impact on brain development, behavior and health. Sleep disturbances, depression, sub- stance use and smoking are just some of the problems that are more common among individuals who have experienced multiple traumas early in life. The earlier they receive help, the better.

Azariah’s family did just that. When Azariah started having serious behavior problems in pre- school, his grandmother and mother brought him to our Taper Center, where he underwent treatment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Now doing well, he graduated from Didi Hirsch’s program. But if he starts to struggle again, his family will bring him back, just as we would do with other illnesses that wax and wane with stress.

About half of all adults with serious mental illness will have a substance use disorder at some point in their lives. After Adele was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, out of shame and denial, she turned to alcohol rather than treatment and ended up homeless and hopeless. She would not be here today but for the kindness of a stranger who helped her find her way to Via Avanta— our residential treatment program for women with mental illness and substance use disorders.

Adults with serious mental illness die up to 25 years younger than other adults. After depression and a divorce sent his life into a tailspin, John could easily have become a statistic. For four years, he received no medical care for his heart disease, diabetes and other illnesses. The doctor in our driveway changed all that. Two years ago, John enrolled in Didi Hirsch’s integrated care program and began seeing a doctor in Westside Family Medical Center’s mobile clinic. Since then, he has had 31 appointments with his primary care doctor and several specialists.

The worst outcome possible for someone with a mental illness is suicide. After Miguel lost his 20-year-old son to suicide, he couldn’t imagine ever laughing again. One of our Suicide Prevention Center’s bereavement support groups helped him find a way forward. With one of our therapists, he co-facilitates the same group for parents just beginning their journey. Helping others is a powerful antidote to grief.

Every year, your support helps thousands of Azariahs, Adeles, Johns and Miguels. We are grateful to them for sharing their stories. We are grateful to you for helping those stories have a happy ending.

With gratitude,

A particular area of effectiveness has been our approach to integrated health care. Didi Hirsch’s strategy includes reducing the risk of premature death by offering interdisciplinary care for the body alongside our mental health services. We accomplish this by offering on-site medical services as well as by providing health coaches and wellness groups. We also do it with the help of New Board Members Nancy Rubin & Melissa Rivers grants from organizations like Saint John’s Health Center Foundation and Cedars Sinai Behavioral Health Initiative and through partnerships with providers such as Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center and the Westside Family Health Center.
