2016 ANNUAL REPORT

Changing their STORIES Youth who have suffered trauma can become our future leaders

UCAN’sVISION Dear Friends:

We have all experienced the intimidation that often comes along with major life changes. The unknown can be scary, and even under some of the most challenging circumstances, humans lean towards the familiar. UCAN is built on the principle that resiliency, created in the face of this fear, has the capacity to foster future leaders.

It has been interesting, in my 26 years of service to UCAN, to witness the evolution of our agency alongside the transformations of so many of the young people we serve. UCAN originated and changed dramatically on the tails of two traumatic events – the Civil War and the Chicago Fire. We found healing through the generosity of an endowment from the Uhlich family and enrichment from partnerships with government and community agencies over the course of our history. Metaphorically, this progression mirrors UCAN’s clinical philosophy and continuum of care when serving youth and families. We have proven that the act of one caring voice or one innovative program can be enough to impart change and instill resiliency.

Today, UCAN is well positioned, beaming with pride about our past and a secure sense of hope for our future. We have weathered historically challenging financial pressures and even increased program revenue and assets. As you spend some time looking over our most recent successes, I’d like to highlight a few of those of which I am most proud as I begin my new role as CEO:

• This year brought about a review period through the Council of Accreditation, and UCAN received incredibly high marks. They described our services as integrated and holistic, our staff as passionate and knowledgeable, and our youth as supported, respected and safe.

• Our annual Youth Leadership Awards exceeded its highest fundraising goal to date by raising more than $800,000 to directly support UCAN programming.

• Our Summer Youth Employment Program continued to raise the bar, serving over 350 youth during the months when they are most vulnerable to violence and neglect.

• Possibly the biggest change for UCAN in recent history was the move of our headquarters and several programs to Chicago’s North Lawndale community, which we expect to have a positive and lasting impact on the city’s West Side.

I am thrilled that UCAN continues to attract employees, board members, volunteers and donors like you who are filled with such incredible compassion. You are helping us to communicate the need and reach for higher excellence in trauma-informed healing, education and empowerment. In short, you are making positive change a possibility for over 11,000 youth and families in Chicago. Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Zachary W. Schrantz CEO UCAN’s VISION | 2 Making a change through...INNOVATIVE PROGRAMMING

UCAN works with youth in the care of the state’s child welfare system and those transferring out of the state’s care to help them live independently. We also work with schools and in the community to provide youth with an array of supportive services that guide them in making smart decisions and provide them with tools for future success. We work with the families of these children to enhance the full spectrum of support. UCAN provides a continuum of care that enables youth to move from one program to another as their needs change, sparing them the transitions and gaps caused by moves through multiple agencies. All of our programs are united by a common clinical philosophy, which ensures that our approach to healing is cohesive and consistent.

The word “intention” can hold many meanings. Most commonly, it is synonymous with the strategy and execution of a plan. UCAN’s intention has never been more targeted as our recent five-year effort to help revitalize North Lawndale and make a positive impact on the trauma violent crime inflicts on youth and families in that community. Research indicates that we must intervene with youth between ages 12-24 before they fall into the criminal system, gang structures, and other negative influences.

So far we’ve seen the following success from our five-year investment: 

• Through systems integration of county, city and local resources, UCAN’s efforts to create the Peace Hub have offered a coordinated infrastructure for service providers to access and share resources while addressing each youth’s individual needs.

• The construction of UCAN’s Drost Harding Campus has yielded the Diermeier Therapeutic Youth Home, a state-of-the-art facility for youth who have suffered trauma to heal and grow, and the John D. and Alexandra C. Nichols Program and Administrative Headquarters, which has enabled our services to become more centralized, providing expanded outreach for youth leadership and violence prevention programming; clinical, counseling and family support services; and workforce development initiatives.

• The number of partnerships and collaborations we’ve forged with North Lawndale residents, businesses, clergy, nonprofits, schools, and elected officials continues to grow steadily. UCAN’s employment of more than 100 North Lawndale residents to work in our Therapeutic Youth Home, 360 Community, Safe Passages and other program areas displays our commitment to making a sustainable impact in the community. Our presence and programs in the community have been overwhelmingly well received.

• While building the John D. and Alexandra C. Nichols Center, we expanded our minority- and female-owned business spending and continue to seek out opportunities to build relationships that support our diversity and inclusion efforts.

UCAN believes that our investment will create progress, and that this progress will continue to spread until our city is no longer defined by its homicide rate and all youth can find a healing path to successful futures. We believe our achievements will expand until our continuum of care is a national model. Social entrepreneurship programs, trauma- informed trainings for schools and homeless shelters, community engagement events, healing gardens, and many other initiatives will breathe new life into all of Chicago’s most disadvantaged neighborhoods. We’ve proven that change is possible when you get behind the right ideas and the right people. We are proud of our accomplishments and look forward to continuing this progress for the future.
