In fact, the opposite is true, according to Elvis Duran, radio’s most listened-to top 40 morning man, in an exclusive interview with Inside Radio. “It makes us radio hosts more important than ever,” says the “Z100” WHTZ, New York-based Duran of the syndicated “Elvis Duran and the Morning Show.” “Even though we have a whole world of music at our fingertips, having a human connect you to the music is still very important. We are the people who add the human connectivity to music and musicians.” Duran also extols digital platforms in the discussion, praising them for giving personalities more ways to connect with the audience. Snapchat is a favorite among his show’s cast members. “It really is as close to the radio experience as you can get with any social media right now,” he says. “It is personable and it is of the moment; it is on and then 24 hours later it is gone. There is a sense of urgency to it.” Duran, who will be inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame Nov. 5, explains how he and his cohosts work product mentions into the show so seamlessly. “A lot of times, we go to the sales department and say, ‘I have found myself using this product more and more.

This year has been full of change, growth, and progress. Our call reports, chat logs, and digital services make it very clear that The Trevor Project is still urgently needed. We saw one of the largest membership increases on TrevorSpace since the program’s inception in 2008 and we watched the number of calls to the Trevor Lifeline surpass 35,000 – nearly 4,000 more than last year. We also expanded the first nationally available chat service specifically for LGBTQ youth in need of support.

    ASSOCIATION TO BENEFIT CHILDREN ANNUAL REPORT 2016 ASSOCIATION TO BENEFIT CHILDREN 419 East 86th Street New York, NY 10028 Phone: 212-845-3821 Fax: 212-426-9488 www.a-b-c.org 1 in every 3 children in New York City lives in poverty and suffers from the complications of being poor — knowing want and hunger, chronic disease, terror, destitution, violence, and despair. Often they are newcomers to our shores, struggling alone in fear and isolation. Each night, too many New York City children have no home at all, no place to lay their heads. ABC is a champion for all children. ABC defends the right of every child to a joyful and nurturing childhood by creating compassionate programs in urgent response to the needs of New York City’s most vulnerable children and families. Since 1986, ABC has developed replicable model programs that are comprehensive, cost effective, and sustainable. These proven models spread ABC’s innovation and advocacy, reaching children throughout New York and well beyond its borders. “There is only one child in the world and the child’s name is All Children” A LEGACY OF CHANGE ‑ Carl Sandburg ABC speaks out on behalf of vulnerable children, amplifying each small voice into a resounding chorus calling for change. INCLUSIONARY EDUCATION FOR PRESCHOOLERS WITH DISABILITIES ABC’s educational advocacy began with Merricat’s Castle School — the national model for preschool education — which established the right to inclusionary preschool education for young children with disabilities. All of ABC’s preschools proudly champion this model. ANTI-HUNGER During the prosperous ‘80’s, when large numbers of hungry children began appearing in the shadows, searching for leftovers in dumpsters outside supermarkets, ABC publicly exposed the growing hun- ger crisis amongst children while simultaneously we developed a model, cost-effective, emergency food program in collaboration with The Church of the Holy Trinity and other local churches, syna- gogues, and schools.
