    2015 ANNUAL REPORT Celebrating 32 Years of Service Changing Lives, Strengthening Families Since 1983 KFAm’s Mission KFAM’s mission is to support and strengthen Korean American families and individuals in the Greater Los Angeles area through counseling, education, and social services. KFAM was founded in 1983 by immigrant Korean women inspired by the vision of Dr. Tae Young Lee, Korea’s first female attorney, an early advocate of the rights of women, and the founder of the Legal Aid Center for Family Relations in Korea. Under the slogan “standing alongside our distressed neighbors,” KFAM opened its doors in 1983 to offer hope and help for immigrant families devastated by economic hardships, immigration stress, and family strife. The original mission and vision live on through KFAM’s broad range of family intervention, mental health, and social services that provide an important safety net for families and community members. Our dedicated, skilled team of bilingual staff and volunteers serve over 5,000 adults and children each year with quality, culturally-relevant services and compassionate care that speak directly to the challenges among Korean American families undergoing trauma or adaptation stresses. Our services truly provide a vital safety net for resource-poor families without access to care. CORE PRIORITIES 1. Promote wellness and resilience of Korean American adults and children 2. Foster safe, healthy families free from violence and abuse 3. Extend safety net support for families without access to care 4. Build a healthy, thriving community in collaboration with community partners Changing Lives, Strengthening Families Since 1983 TO LEARN MORE PLEASE VISIT WWW.KFAMLA.ORG 2 KOREAN AMERICAN FAMILY SERVICES LETTER FROM THE BOARD & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Dear Friends, Since 1983, KFAM has been providing safety net services to Korean immigrant families who often fall through the cracks due to linguistic, cultural and other barriers.

    Changing Lives 2013-2014 Annual Report www.hathaway-sycamores.org Michael Galper William P. Martone Dear Friends For more than 112 years, Hathaway-Sycamores Child and Family Services has been dedicated to nurturing hope, healing, and the opportunity to thrive for children, teens, young adults, and families facing serious life challenges. Over the past year, our 650 highly skilled and deeply compassionate staff members continued that commitment. Known for forging best practices, Hathaway-Sycamores is a leader in the mental health and child-welfare arenas, a fact that was further solidified when we recently received a prestigious California Awards for Performance Excellence (CAPE) ™ Eureka Award. Hathaway-Sycamores’ greatest strength, however, is our ability to fundamentally transform lives. One proud example of how we change lives is through our Foster Family and Adoption Agency. With more than 19,000 children and teens in Los Angeles County’s foster-care system, there has never been a more crucial need for foster parents and forever homes. Hathaway-Sycamores is working diligently to meet these needs. We also are working collaboratively, as evidenced by a special event we spearheaded this past June. In partnership with the Department of Children and Family Services and the Department of Mental Health, we brought together 11 other agencies for a first-of-its-kind forum designed to increase public awareness regarding the thousands of kids who urgently need temporary or permanent, loving homes. As a result of our Foster Family and Adoption Agency’s determined efforts, we have seen – firsthand – how profoundly youngsters’ lives can be changed when they leave foster care for the permanency of forever homes.
