This past year has been no exception, and I’m pleased to have the chance to highlight our efforts in this annual report. Thanks to our KidsPeace Hospital expansion, completed in 2014, the hospital treated a daily average of 91 patients in 2015, up from 78 in the previous year. Behind that impressive increase is an even more important consideration: more families in eastern Pennsylvania and western New Jersey were able to access hospital care for children and adolescents in psychiatric crisis at a location closer to their homes. This expansion essentially allows more families to actively participate in treatment and thus help bring about better outcomes for their children. Our Pennsylvania outpatient and community programs also continue to reach more people. One innovation adopted this past year is the capability for telepsychiatry at our outpatient clinics in Pennsylvania. Through the use of advanced, secure communications technology, we can make psychiatric consultations available to more clients while cutting wait times literally by months. In Maine, KidsPeace New England has expanded our capability to serve children in need, building on the growth in school-aged day treatment programming in the Millinocket and Bangor/Ellsworth areas. In 2015 we launched a new preschool day treatment program at our Graham Lake Campus that provides therapeutic support for kids ages 3 to 5. We also were chosen to partner with the Maine Department of Health and Human Services to manage “A Family for ME,” a program to recruit foster parents throughout the state. Speaking of expansion, planning has begun on building a new 20-bed residential facility at our KidsPeace Georgia Residential Campus located in Bowdon, to meet a growing need across the state. The excellent work of our Georgia education associates received national attention when U.S. News and World Report named KidsPeace School of Georgia as one of the nation’s top performing high schools of 2015. The Georgia KidsPeace School was the only residential treatment school in the state recognized for this honor. As we look to 2016, many new challenges emerge. Explosive growth in the abuse of heroin and other opiates means a corresponding increase in the need for foster care placements for children of addicted parents. Recent tragic instances of gun violence in Oregon, California and elsewhere continue to underscore the need for more access to mental and behavioral health services in our society. We need to do more! As we have for 134 years, KidsPeace stands ready to meet the new challenges in accordance with our mission – to give help, hope and healing to children, families and communities. We need your support to continue this important work. Learn more about KidsPeace and our vital mission at www.kidspeace.org and www.fostercare. com. Please consider a donation and learn more about upcoming events to benefit our efforts, by following us on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. We look forward to continuing to work with all of you to help give kids peace. Best wishes. William Isemann President and CEO 3 TRANSFORMATION DEMOGRAPHICS At KidsPeace, we survey our clients annually to give them the opportunity to rate the services we provide for them in regard to our treatment model of care.

  • Cincinnati Reds' 10-4 Victory Over the San Francisco Giants on Monday
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings March 17, 2015 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1978-The Reds are the first to don green uniforms for a St. Patrick’s Day exhibition. The Reds even order green catching gear for the occasion. CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Even if reinstated, Pete Rose's Hall future uncertain By C. Trent Rosecrans / Cincinnati Enquirer / [email protected] / @ctrent Even if Pete Rose is reinstated to baseball, that would not guarantee him an easy road to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. On Monday, Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said Rose had formally applied to have his lifetime ban lifted. Manfred said he would "deal with" Rose's request. Rose, who has been banned from the game since 1989, was ruled ineligible for the Hall in 1991, when the organization voted to ban players on baseball's permanently ineligible list. If reinstated, Rose would have to be elected to the Hall by Expansion Era Committee, according to Hall of Fame spokesman Brad Horn. "Rose would be an eligible candidate for Hall of Fame consideration based on if he were to be reinstated by Major League Baseball," Horn wrote to the Enquirer in an email on Monday. "Should Rose be moved off Baseball's Ineligible list, his candidacy would fall to the Expansion Era Committee (which next votes next winter – 2016 for Induction in 2017), based on the rules for election. Only candidates who last appeared in a major league game within a 15-year window can be considered by the BBWAA."' Rose's induction into the Hall of Fame would rest on a 16-member committee that meets at baseball's annual Winter Meetings, needing the same 75 percent standard that is required by the constituency of the members of the BBWAA who have earned voting privileges by being active members of the organization for 10 years.

  • April 9, 2020 Reading Fightin Phils Opening Night Was Scheduled For
    April 9, 2020 Reading Fightin Phils Opening Night was scheduled for tonight. Obviously the global pandemic has forced the postponement of R-Phils Opening Night, all upcoming R-Phils games, and all other extra events held at FirstEnergy Stadium, until further notice. The Reading Fightin Phils have been monitoring the coronavirus (COVID-19) situation closely and following the updates from Minor League Baseball. At this time, we don’t know how many R-Phils games, if any, we will play in 2020. That decision is based on public health concerns and is beyond our control. While we are hopeful that at some point games will occur at FirstEnergy Stadium in 2020, there certainly is the possibility that no games will occur this season. No matter what, R-Phils fans and partners can rest assured that the R-Phils will do right by them. Once we know what, if any, games will be played in 2020, the R-Phils will work with all ticket holders and corporate partners to utilize any remaining part of the 2020 season and the entire 2021 season to give each stakeholder the appropriate value for their ticket, ticket package, or sponsor partnership. If that stakeholder is unable to exchange their tickets or unable to roll-over all or part of their sponsor partnership to 2021, the R-Phils will refund money. The process will be individualized, as the R-Phils pledge to provide maximum flexibility to all of our fans and partners. Fans holding tickets to games that get postponed due to the coronavirus should please just hold on to their tickets for now.
