2017 ANNUAL REPORT

Building Relationships, Inspiring Success. “Ramapo for Children is built around a set of beliefs, an educational philosophy, and an approach to creating community. In 2017, we brought that approach to more educators and children than ever before.”

2 RAMAPO 2017 At Ramapo, we have spent nearly a century supporting young people who wrestle with challenges such as disability, learning difference, poverty, or trauma. Our approach, on display throughout this annual report, helps create environments that foster a sense of belonging and connectedness, and promotes individual learning and personal growth for young people and adults. Our mission is rooted in building healthy relationships and strong communities. Ramapo has evolved over the years and our commitment to continuous improvement has been unwavering. Ongoing self-reflection and learning are integral to our organizational culture. We believe that our mission bestows on us a responsibility to address any issues that can give rise to alienation and exclusion. In that spirit, in 2017, we began tackling the issues of racism and inequity, and exploring how they manifest in our work, among our partners, and even within our own organization. Throughout its history, Ramapo has been a living laboratory for identifying and articulating practices that help support success for all. We hope that others discover, as we have, that difficult conversations about race and equity, undertaken in an environment marked by honesty and trust can strengthen bonds and deepen connections. We plan to share what we’ve learned, so that other organizations will have the confidence and skill to confront a challenge that keeps so many young people, families, and organizations from truly fulfilling their potential. We are incredibly proud of our staff members for having the courage to go on this organizational journey. We are proud of our board members for having the bravery to look under the organizational hood and for recognizing that addressing race and inequity is not mission creep, but mission fulfillment. Ramapo for Children is built around a set of beliefs, an educational philosophy and an approach to creating community. In 2017, we brought that approach to more educators and children than ever before. We continue to be a proud beacon of kindness and generosity in a landscape of uncertainty. None of this good work would be possible without the efforts and support of our professional staff, lay leaders, donors, partner organizations, and families. We are extraordinarily grateful for your participation and your contribution, and we look forward to doing good work together for many years to come.

RAMAPO 2017 5 RELATIONSHIPS THE TOOLBOX IN ACTION AND ROLE MODELING

Relationships and role modeling form the cornerstone of Ramapo for Children’s Toolbox and Approach. When working with adults, we help them understand that promoting positive behavior in young people starts with recognizing the impact of their own behavior. By practicing self-awareness and self-reflection, adults can begin to understand how their actions and behaviors influence young people. When adults model the behaviors they want to see in others, they can focus on building relationships with young RAMAPO’S STRATEGIES INCLUDE: people by improving communication • Identify and celebrate individual and creating trust. strengths • Match your voice and body language to your message • Share some of your own interests and experiences • Listen without an agenda

“Building relationships was something I felt comfortable with in my old classroom, but teaching a new age group was a challenge for me. By working with my Ramapo coach, I’ve learned how to build trust with new students. Simple things like asking ‘how was your “I model social and emotional skills by verbalizing weekend?’ have created better relationships how I deal with my emotions. For example, I between my students and me.” may say, ‘I’m noticing that my body temperature is changing and I’m getting a headache. This tells – MIDDLE SCHOOL TEACHER, me that I am becoming frustrated and I need to take some space.’ Modeling behavior is helpful because Staff Assistants also start to name their emotions and develop coping strategies.”

6 RAMAPO 2017 RELATIONSHIPS AND ROLE MODELING

During a retreat, our team intentionally builds and reinforces positive relationships with “participants. As soon as our guests arrive, our facilitators ask questions, share stories about themselves, and express interest in each individual. At the start of group activities, the first thing we do is draw out and highlight commonalities within the retreat group. For many, it’s the first time these shared traits have been identified, and the exercise helps to create stronger bonds between participants. – DIRECTOR OF RAMAPO” RETREATS

RAMAPO 2017 7 CLEAR EXPECTATIONS, THE TOOLBOX IN ACTION STRUCTURES, AND ROUTINES

To support the goals of a community, whether it be in a classroom, recreational environment, or at home, we emphasize how important it is for adults—in collaboration with young people—to set expectations for behavior. By establishing clear structures and routines, and understanding the controllable elements of an environment, such as space, time, and materials, adults can minimize stress, anticipate triggers, RAMAPO’S STRATEGIES INCLUDE: celebrate successes, and ultimately • Identify and promote community pave the way for participation expectations and engagement. • Check for understanding • Organize space, time, people, and materials • Use goals and incentives to motivate behavioral change and promote independence

“When I lead a workshop for after-school staff, I equip them with the skills necessary to build community agreements that include youth voice. Identifying shared purpose and establishing agreements helps build a community in which “The Ramapo Leadership Program provides everyone is clear about the expectations and moderate boundaries and positive routines that feels accountable.” have enabled my daughter to mature socially and emotionally, even when she’s not on campus. – RAMAPO TRAINER She has weekly calls with her Ramapo mentor, which allow her to take stock of all the things that have occurred that week and what she’s accomplished.”

8 RAMAPO 2017 CLEAR EXPECTATIONS, STRUCTURES, AND ROUTINES

One of the backbones of Ramapo’s Staff Assistant Experience is that “every participant has their own schedule, seven days a week. Providing young adults with structure encourages them to prepare for the next day and think about how routines can help them reach their goals. Also, Staff Assistants end their days with a routine of reflecting on their “highs” for the day and their “hopes” for the next day, which is a good way to assess what happened and to create new goals.

RAMAPO 2017 9 ADAPTING FOR THE TOOLBOX IN ACTION INDIVIDUAL NEEDS

When young people are struggling to meet community expectations, they often require additional supports and more targeted planning to meet their individual needs. When adults recognize young people’s patterns, triggers, and stressors, they can provide alternative strategies for expressing and managing emotions, including using sensory materials and adjusting schedules to prevent over-stimulation. By making adaptations, communities can become more inclusive and RAMAPO’S STRATEGIES INCLUDE: welcoming places for young people • Use interests and abilities to motivate who might otherwise be pushed participation and engagement into the margins. • Decode behavior into feelings and offer alternatives • Use pre-established visual cues and verbal reminders • Create a “retreat” or “cool down” spot

“When Staff Assistants come to work with us, we communicate heavily with Ramapo’s team to ensure that, first and foremost, the young adult is given a job that aligns with his or her interests and strengths. Then we make adaptations to their training as needed. For example, we’ve created “We adapt our programs for individual students, photo books that include the images and names because Ramapo believes that all young people of the tools and items that they work with.” have assets. Schools should be structured for youth—not the other way around—and part of that is the adults’ responsibility to investigate – STAFF ASSISTANT EMPLOYER each child’s strengths and what makes them unique, then use that knowledge to help each child be successful.”

10 RAMAPO 2017 When we plan camp programs, we differentiate our activities to meet campers’ ADAPTING FOR “individual needs. Within the art center, we use stations, which enable campers to INDIVIDUAL NEEDS choose what they will enjoy during their time there. We have stations that provide ‘clean spaces’ for campers who may not care to get messy; stations that allow both independent and group play; and stations that allow sensory play for campers who need that. Campers feel successful when they have a sense of autonomy.

RAMAPO 2017 11 RESPONDING, REFLECTING, THE TOOLBOX IN ACTION AND REPAIRING

Although steps may be taken to ensure that environments are inclusive and supportive, situations will arise during which relationships may need to be repaired between young people and others in their community. In times of conflict, we reinforce the importance of an adult’s response and provide strategies for de-escalating situations, avoiding power struggles, and managing difficult emotions. Following conflicts or critical incidents, we help adults respond with protocols that do not rely on exclusionary or punitive discipline measures and instead focus on addressing harm, and practicing skills. When appropriate, in partnership with young RAMAPO’S STRATEGIES INCLUDE: people, we help adults identify consequences • Pick your battles that enable young people to reflect on • Have a plan for processing conflict mistakes, identify alternatives, and create and allowing for restitution a plan for repairing relationships. • Confront privately • Use consequences carefully

“In the camp environment, when conflicts arise, the tools provided by Ramapo are designed to help children make better choices for themselves. Strategies can be as simple as giving a camper space and time to cool off, or taking a camper on “During retreat activities, staff members create a walk to speak privately about an issue. These situations that challenge participants, knowing strategies provide young people with control, that through communication and encouragement, which allows them to feel more comfortable.” the group will overcome these obstacles by working together. Afterwards, participants have – RAMAPO BOARD MEMBER an opportunity to reflect on the challenge, the AND BEHAVIOR THERAPIST potential conflicts that could have arisen, and what steps they took to avoid conflict.”

12 RAMAPO 2017 RESPONDING, REFLECTING, AND REPAIRING

All of the strategies utilized by Ramapo coaches support the goals of school-wide “restorative practices, particularly de-escalating and resolving conflict, and reintegrating a student back into their school community. These practices include structured conversations between a student and teacher that enable both people to reflect on negative behaviors, the impact of those behaviors, and what can be done to rectify the situation in a way that restores respect and dignity to all parties.
