Staten Island NFP Association 2011 Briefing Book Staten Island NFP Association 2011 Briefing Book The Staten Island NFP Association Briefing Book stands as the first document of its kind - a comprehensive resource of information about the size, scope and capacity of Staten Island’s not-for-profit sector. Inside this document you will find critical information about the organizations that serve as Staten Island’s largest industry sector and that are at the forefront of improving the quality of life of our Borough, including their background, budget and staff size, and contact information. The purpose of this document is twofold. First, the Briefing Book serves as the definitive resource for information about not-for-profits on Staten Island - what they do, how they do it, and how to get in touch with them. Whether looking for a specific organization or just curious about the extent to which not-for-profits impact life in the Borough, this document contains the information that you will need. But the Briefing Book also serves a larger purpose. By combining the information about all of the not-for-profit members of the Staten Island NFP Association in one document we demonstrate the size and scope of not-for-profits operating on Staten Island. A look at the budgets of the organizations contained within this document, for instance, shows a collection of organizations with budgets into the tens or hundreds of millions of dollars and organizations that employ hundreds of even thousands of staff members. The descriptions of the work in which these organizations are engaged likewise underscore the extent to which not-for-profits are critically involved in the educational, recreational, health-related, faith-based and community development activities of life in the Borough. A read through the Briefing Book will show that many of the best things happening on Staten Island are happening at not-for-profit organizations. The Staten Island NFP Association was fortunate during the creation of this inaugural 2011 Staten Island NFP Association Briefing Book to have the assistance of Sarah Alexis, an Honors College student at the College of Staten Island. Sarah edited this document and is primarily responsible for its success. Organization Name 9/11 Police Aid Foundation Contact Name Gary White Contact Address 258 Thornycroft Avenue Staten Island, NY, 10312 Budget Less than $100,000 Telephone Number 866WTC1013 Website Number of Staff Organizational Description Law Enforcement that came from all 50 states and commonwealths to aid in the rescue and recovery at the World Trade Center. On September 11th, 2001, at a time when our city needed them the most, these professionals gave their all to keep us safe,maintain order, search for survivors, and keep our city functioning in the face of an almost unimaginable horror. Now, many of them are bravely facing yet another crisis. Possibly thousands of individuals who were exposed to the toxic environment resulting from the collapse of the towers are now experiencing a wide range of illnesses. We are former NYPD Officers and 9/11 first responders. We too have suffered serious health problems as a result of our World Trade Center efforts. Our goal is to provide support through education and other forms of charitable relief to all Law Enforcement officers and their families. Charitable donations go to the following but are not limited to: Providing education of Police Officers and their families, educating the public through media campaigns, lecturing organizations, schools and colleges, financial relief in extreme situations, assisting in applications for disability, counsel in psychological, medical, and financial issues. We also lobby local, state and the federal government to enact laws and assist in acquiring disability benefits to our members and non members. Most importantly we make sure those that have died from 9/11 illness are memorialized and remembered as much as the first responders that died in the attacks on 9/11/01. They all deserve to not be forgotten. Organization Name A Very Special Place, Inc Contact Name Genevieve R. Benoit Contact Address 1429 Hylan Boulevard Staten Island, NY 10305 Budget $17,000,000 Telephone Number (718) 987-1234 Website www.veryspecialplace.org Number of Staff 187 full-time staff members, 103 part-time staff members, and approximately 40 volunteers. Organizational Description A Very Special Place, Inc. (AVSP) was established in 1974 as a not-for-profit organization that provides programs and services to people with developmental disabilities. The primary goal of A Very Special Place is to help every consumer achieve their fullest potential through individually tailored services and programs that are designed to meet the specific needs of each consumer and their family. The mission of A Very Special Place is to empower people with developmental disabilities to lead fuller lives through comprehensive programs and services offering guidance, support, and opportunities for achieving independence, self-fulfillment and full community inclusion. A few of our recent accomplishments include development and construction of a café on New Dorp Beach. Its is a full-service restaurant operated by agency program participants. This café will provide a natural progression for members of our Employment Training Alternative Habilitation program to begin to learn first-hand experience in the food service industry by working in the café. It is expected that skills learned and experience gained in the café will allow members of the program to progress in seeking employment in a restaurant/food service entity in the Staten Island Community. The agency recently opened a sixth residence, which is a Supported Apartment program for six individuals. The agency is also building a new administrative headquarters to be opened in late fall 2010 in New Dorp. Day Habilitation programs are offered depending on the level of need and service. Active community involvement and independence are promoted. Life-skill training is offered both on and off-site to meet daily challenges. Organization Name Alice Austen HouseMuseum Contact Name G. Carl Rutberg Contact Address 2 Hylan Blvd Staten Island, NY 10301 Budget $290,000 Telephone Number (718) 816-4506 Website www.AliceAusten.org Number of Staff 2 full-time, 5 part-time staff members Organizational Description In 1945 Alice Austen lost her home and was forced to move into a poorhouse: most of her money evaporated during in the 1929 stock market crash. The house was soon abandoned and almost destroyed, but a group of concerned citizens managed to save it. In 1973 it was declared a National Historic Landmark and a decade later the house opened to the public. The Austen House has clear mission, a dedicated board, a passionate staff, and strong vision for the future. Combined, these pieces lead to success. Our education programs, for example, reach around 2,500 students per year, and center around three themes: learning how to use a camera, learning to look, and learning to express. Today, we offer programs to schoolchildren, teenagers, as well as senior citizens. Our temporary exhibitions are known for their excellence and are often featured in blogs and magazines as the very best of what New York has to offer. This publicity explains why we attract visitors from not only the other four boroughs but also from around the country. Our public programs reflect Austen's artistic side as well as her lust for life and include dance performances, concerts, art extravaganzas, theatre performances, and artists’ talks. We welcome 15,000 visitors per year. Because of our commitment to reach underserved communities, we have established strong ties with Park Hill and Stapleton. Together we organize public events and education programs as well as offer internships and summer employment. The Austen House has been inducted into the National Trust for Historic Preservation highly selective group of Historic Artists’ Homes and Studios, which includes artists such as Jackson Pollock and Georgia O’Keefe. The readers of the Advance voted the museum the best gallery space on Staten Island. And today, Alice Austen might be the only woman in American, with the exception of Eleanor Roosevelt, to have a museum, street, ferry, and school named after her. Organization Name Amazing Grace Interfaith Ministry Contact Name Mary Hansen Contact Address 894 Sheldon Ave Staten Island , NY 10309 Budget $31,000 Telephone Number Website www.amazinggraceinterfaith.com Number of Staff Organizational Description Amazing Grace Interfaith Ministry believes children are our future.

  • About Fresh Kills
    INTERNATIONAL DESIGN COMPETITION : 2001 ABOUT FRESH KILLS Fresh Kills Landfill is located on the western shore of Staten Island. Approximately half the 2,200-acre landfill is composed of four mounds, or sections, identified as 1/9, 2/8, 3/4 and 6/7 which range in height from 90 feet to approximately 225 feet. These mounds are the result of more than 50 years of landfilling, primarily household waste. Two of the four mounds are fully capped and closed; the other two are being prepared for final capping and closure. Fresh Kills is a highly engineered site, with numerous systems put in place to protect public health and environmental safety. However, roughly half the site has never been filled with garbage or was filled more than twenty years ago. These flatter areas and open waterways host everything from landfill infrastructure and roadways to intact wetlands and wildlife habitats. The potential exists for these areas, and eventually, the mounds themselves, to support broader and more active uses. With effective preparation now, the city can, over time, transform this controversial site into an important asset for Staten Island, the city and the region. Before dumping began, Fresh Kills Landfill was much like the rest of northwest Staten Island. That is, most of the landfill was a salt or intertidal marsh. The topography was low-lying, with a subsoil of clay and soils of sand and silt. The remainder of the area was originally farmland, either actively farmed, or abandoned and in stages of succession. Although Fresh Kills Landfill is not a wholly natural environment, the site has developed its own unique ecology.
