2015 ANNUAL REPORT

BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS, INSPIRING SUCCESS. Strategies that Support Success Grounded in the conviction that all young people genuinely want to do well, the Ramapo Approach is a set of strategies and tools designed to help young people overcome challenges and experience success. Whether on our Rhinebeck Campus or through our work in schools and youth service agencies, our staff members help create supportive environments and make sure no one gets left behind.

2 RAMAPO 2015 Supporting Success from Early Childhood to Independence For many of our partners, families and alumni, the connection to Ramapo is emotional and deeply personal. Perhaps it’s simply because we work on behalf of children who are society’s most vulnerable. Perhaps there is something more.

When our children are born, we have lofty aspirations regarding parenting and how we want to be seen in our children’s eyes. When a college or graduate student comes to work at Camp ,RESPONDING, ,REFLECTING, Ramapo, they are armed with great optimism about the impact REPAIRING they will have on the children who will be entrusted in their care. When an emerging professional makes the choice to be a teacher in an urban school, they enter the classroom with an ADAPTING FOR ambitious vision for the role they hope to play in their students’ INDIVIDUAL NEEDS lives. Yet all of us—parents, teachers and anyone who works with children—discover at some point along the way, that the job we actually have is not always exactly the one we envisioned. Children can be challenging. Despite our best intentions, there ,CLEAR EXPECTATIONS, are moments when we feel ill-equipped or catch ourselves STRUCTURES & ROUTINES saying or doing things that seem incongruous with the people we aspire to be.

By giving adults a richer toolbox for responding when children challenge their expectations, Ramapo enables teachers, RELATIONSHIPS & caregivers and parents to exercise patience when they might ROLE MODELING otherwise get frustrated, or to be generous when they might otherwise show anger. Ramapo helps all of us be the parents, educators, mentors and coaches that we had hoped to be when we began our journeys. In a nutshell, Ramapo helps us all THE RAMAPO TOOLBOX be the best version of ourselves. That is why Ramapo holds a special place in the hearts of so many.

On behalf of the entire Ramapo team, thank you for helping us achieve another year of growth and success. Without our partners and donors, none of our accomplishments would be possible. In the coming year, Ramapo will continue striving to fulfill its potential, and help more and new people do the same.

I came to Ramapo in June of 2013 and I had just graduated college with a degree in Science, so I was a bit“ unusual because I had already gone to college before Ramapo. I was very anxious about it, but my heart told me Ramapo was the right place for me. I have always had crippling anxiety which is why I had never really worked a job or been able to find work, or live alone after college. I was a good student in a school setting but could never make that successful transition over Growing Lifelong Skills: to the work environment.
