The goal of the program is to place I am confident that with your continued investment in our work we will these young adults in community-based employment opportunities. achieve the goals set forth for the coming year and create brighter futures for years to come. Thank you. We are also pleased with the tremendous success of our new Family Training Series at Melmark New England. This program is offered to families Sincerely, of children with autism and was made possible by a foundation grant from Autism Speaks.

And it is with great pride that President & CEO a number of our Leadership Staff have contributed to the Pennsylvania “Speaker’s Journal,” an important reference that assists legislators to understand the challenges that individuals with disabilities and their families face each day.

Capital projects are integral to our educational and vocational programs. This year the completion of a new greenhouse for the Meadows Program in Pennsylvania and a playground for the New England school were Creating brighter futures for made possible through the generosity of individuals and foundations. years to come Expanding Early Childhood Initiatives The Melmark School opened a new classroom for young students ages 5-8. With this additional classroom the School strengthened and expanded its Elementary Education Program that already serves students 9-12 years of age.

The new classroom provides early intensive behavioral intervention for young students with an autism spectrum disorder and other developmental disabilities. It also incorporates the full range of Melmark’s services and expertise. The young students follow a basic early education curriculum, receive related services such as speech, physical, and occupational therapies, and begin to develop social skills and peer group friendships. The small classroom settings allow Melmark teachers and staff to focus on the individual needs of each child. There is also time for “fun” learning – music, art and visiting the animals at The Barn.

“The Elementary Education Program has been very well received,” notes Norm Dahl, Ph.D., Melmark’s Clinical Director for Children’s Programs. “In partnership with area school districts and families, we have designed a unique program that addresses a young student’s behavioral issues and educational needs. Our goal is to work with the children, allowing them to interact positively with family members and other students. The program has allowed Melmark to share its resources with local school districts, families, and human service organizations while also expanding our program continuum.”

Thanks to the support and commitment of our friends and donors, a whole new group of children and their families will benefit from Melmark’s services.

Early intensive behavioral intervention for young students The Bridge to Adulthood Melmark’s Vocational Program prepares adults for a better quality of life by providing them with vocational training that increases their opportunity for paid competitive employment. Participants are provided with work experience opportunities that consist of on-campus training programs as well as job sampling and job shadowing in community work settings.

The goal of the Vocational Program is to increase employability and life skills of participants through a vocational curriculum specifically designed for individuals with developmental and behavioral challenges. Staff develop relationships with community businesses that provide community-based employment opportunities for adults with developmental challenges. Area businesses such as McDonalds Restaurants, Genuardi Markets, and WAWA have partnered with Melmark to provide these opportunities for our clients. Staff provide transportation to and from work sites as well as on-site job coaching.

With initial support from The Daniel Jordan Fiddle Foundation and Bristol-Myers Squibb Charities, the Vocational Program was launched in 2007. The program purchased a food cart and a cash register and began selling bagels and donuts to staff and residents at Melmark. Within a year and a half, the program has grown to provide services currently for 16 clients, with future plans to accommodate 45 clients. The Vocational Program has received additional support from WAWA Corporate Charities for equipment and a recent grant from the Alfred I. duPont Foundation to help purchase a van. With growth and support like this, we can continue to provide encouragement, empowerment and opportunity for the adults we serve.

Adults enjoying meaningful work Growth That Empowers The Meadows Country Garden Guild, Melmark’s unique entrepreneurial program for adults, has a new greenhouse! With generous contributions from families, friends and a grant from the Hoxie Harrison Smith Foundation, a new state-of-the-art horticultural facility has been realized.

The greenhouse is a vital component of the Meadows Program, where program participants prepare seedlings that will grow in our campus garden, resulting in flowers that will be dried and arranged in baskets, cards, and other craft items. The Meadows’ participants also cultivate their own plants and arrangements that have become part of their award-winning entries in the Philadelphia Flower Show. Members of The joy The Country Garden Guild are invited to a number of local corporations to sell their goods to the company’s employees, which of discovery have resulted in many new Melmark friendships.

The revitalization of the existing greenhouse will enable program participants to see their products “grow” from seed to sale, offering them opportunities to experience the joy of cultivating their own plants and the satisfaction of achieving extraordinary results. Generosity With Vision As a result of generous contributions from a Melmark family and a corporate matching gift, we have established the Kathleen J. Weiss Memorial Fund for Staff Training and Development. This fund will enable us to renovate our existing employee training center and upgrade vital equipment and materials.

The renovation project will significantly increase the size of the Training Room, allow for the installation of a fully ADA-compliant bathroom, provide additional office space to support staff training and create a new resource library for videos, reference books and periodicals.

Equipment upgrades will include: a Smart Board for use in conducting group training and PowerPoint presentations, viewing video footage and Internet access for research; a Resusi Anne Full Body Manikin for CPR training; an AED Trainer Machine to conduct defibrillation training for nurses; a video camera and computers.

The mission of the training and development department is to support our staff to serve our clients and to assist them in achieving their career goals and professional objectives.

Melmark New England staff and students participated in the 2008 Walk for Autism sponsored by Autism Speaks. More than 20,000 people from Greater Boston participated in the walk at Suffolk Downs.

Helena Maguire, Senior Director of School Services, John Demanche and Pattie Finney, Directors of School Services, at Melmark New England’s 10th Anniversary Open House last June Possibility In 2006, Jim and Angela Alex approached Melmark New England about hosting a golf tournament to raise the funds needed to finish the renovations Newly elected member to the and move into the school building in Andover. Jim and Angela’s son Charlie Baseball Hall of Fame, Jim Rice received consultation services through Melmark and were so impressed with the donated his time at the event work Melmark does with students with autism that they wanted to help.

“We were extremely happy with Charlie’s progress and the level of caring and commitment given to Charlie and to us as parents, said Angela Alex. We noticed that Melmark New England was looking to relocate to a bigger facility and were happy to see they had found a home in Andover, where we currently live. The closeness was very comforting.” She added that Jim, being in the real estate development business, had participated in many fundraising golf tournaments and that the couple thought they, too, could provide a fun event that could help Angela, Charlie and Jim Alex the school raise money to facilitate the move. Jim Alex also serves on Fore Melmark New England is the school’s largest single fundraiser, raising Melmark New England’s more than $400,000 in the past three years. The event is one of the premier Board of Directors golf tournaments in the area, selling out in just days and featuring a fantastic live and silent auction. Jim and Angela’s commitment and vision has helped Melmark New England complete its capital campaign, make on-going improvements to the building, provide professional development opportunities for its staff and educational excellence to every student—every day.

“We’re happy beyond words that the tournament has achieved such enormous success,” Mrs. Alex added. “We can only hope to continue that success in years to come, especially considering our current lean economic times. Jim and I can be counted on to help in any way we can as well as our friends and other supporters of the tournament.”

fore Melmark New England is the school’s largest fundraiser – close to $400,000 in the past three years Melmark New England parent and Board Member Jamie Stahle and his wife Karyn Achievement Melmark New England was proud to receive a $24,700 grant from Autism Speaks for a Family Training Series to help parents and caregivers deal with the stress and challenges that accompany parenting a child with autism.

Dr. Florence DiGennaro Reed, Director of Professional Development, Training & Research, said that parents and caregivers can be at risk for a variety of negative outcomes, such as depression, marital dissatisfaction, feelings of incompetence and social isolation.

“Although the literature contains numerous examples of parent-mediated interventions, many fail to address the dynamic family unit as a whole,” said Dr. DiGennaro Reed. “The parent training made available through Autism Speaks will allow us to address this issue by funding a parent training model that embraces family-focused intervention while incorporating behavior analytic principles.”

Because of the overwhelming response, Melmark New England is offering two, 11-week sessions, each lasting two hours. Dr. DiGennaro Reed, and Dr. Barbara O’Malley Cannon, a Melmark New England consultant, Dr. Florence DiGennaro Reed and Dr. Barbara lead the sessions. O’Malley Cannon present at the parent training group funded through a grant received through Each participant receives a step-by-step workbook, “Helping Your Child with Autism Spectrum Disorder,” in Autism Speaks. combination with the live training. Topics for the training session include: Balancing Child & Family Needs, Getting the Help You Need, Teaching Family Friendly Skills, Communication Skills and Increasing Self-Control.

“The parent training group has been a tremendous success so far,” said Dr. DiGennaro Reed. The parents are a dynamic, interactive group that add depth to the information presented by sharing their personal stories. I hope they learn as much from me as I have from them.”

Frank Bird, Peter Troy, Rita Gardner along with Larry Cancro, a member of Melmark’s Board of Directors and the Autism Speaks New England Board, Leslie Chambers, Senior Vice President of Autism Speaks and Vincent Goglia, Executive Director of the New England Chapter of Autism Speaks. Ms. Chambers and Mr. Goglia visited Melmark New England, presenting the school with the $24,700 check toward the Family Training Series. Creativity When she was in pre-school, Helen Root had just one wish — for her cousin Brian to start talking.

Nearly a decade later, Helen’s cousin Brian, now 14, a student with autism spectrum Disorder at Melmark New England, is quite a talker, striking up conversations with his classmates, teachers, staff and family. The cousins have remained close and Helen recently spearheaded a fundraiser to help Brian’s school.

As a school project, Helen’s eighth-grade class was asked to accomplish a goal within six to eight weeks. Helen spent 24-hours behind a sewing machine, stitching together dozens of colorful scarves and hats which she sold at a local craft fair.

Helen raised $220 for Melmark New England.

“I’ve been wanting to do something for Melmark and this gave me the perfect opportunity,” said Helen, 13. “I liked that the money could go toward Brian’s school, so it could make a difference in their everyday lives.”

Helen’s donation will support teaching programs at the school.

“It’s a good feeling,” said Helen when asked about her gift.

“A gift of this nature is tremendously meaningful because it was generated out of the love and caring of a young person,” said Peter Troy, Melmark New England Vice President.

MelmarkOur New NewEngland thanks Playground the Trust Family Foundation and those who donated to the 10th Anniversary Celebration at Fenway Park for helping us build a new playground this year. We raised $35,000 for the new structures, which were installed in the fall of 2008. The school now has separate playgrounds for the early childhood and the school age programs.
