Welcome to our Annual Report 2016 HELPING OUR COMMUNITY SINCE 1865 Dear Friends, Once again we are pleased to provide you with an annual report that summarizes the remarkable range, depth, and personal impact of services and supports provided by Howard Center, this time for our 2016 fiscal year. In the service of our mission to improve the well-being of children, adults, families, and communities our 1,500 staff supported more than 16,000 people across 50 programs, many operating 24 hours a day, in over 60 locations. The data and graphics in this report highlight our intentional commitment to quality, successful outcomes, and economic accountability. Bob Bick, Chief Executive Officer We are rightfully proud of all that we do. However, healthcare and social services systems are and will be undergoing seismic changes. This means that continued responsiveness to those we serve requires better program and economic information so that we can manage better and more nimbly. After years of inadequate funding, we must do more to 3 build a sustainable business model to position us to offer the programs and supports that will meet the growing and increasingly complex challenges we are and will be asked to address. We hope you find this report informative, the client stories inspiring, and, when all is said and done, you have a greater appreciation for the critical role that Howard Center plays in the health and well-being of our community.

    Preview: Bees Hit Road for Two-Game Set with Lake Monsters

    Preview: Bees hit road for two-game set with Vermont Lake Monsters The 5-4 New Britain Bees will have the day off Monday, June 6 before hitting the road for a pair of games with the 3-5 Vermont Lake Monsters. The Bees and Lake Monsters are 4th and 5th in the league standings at the time of this being written. The Bees hold a 5-4 overall record but are 2-3 on the road, where they will be when they take on Vermont. The Lake Monsters hold a 3-5 record, but they have won two in a row since a 1-5 start to their season. The right-hander Colin Blake will start Tuesday for New Britain. Blake has made one start for the Bees, going five innings, allowing two runs (only one earned) and striking out four along the way. The Bees won that game against the Nashua Silver Knights 7-5. On Wednesday, it will be the University of New Haven product, Andrew Cain on the mound for New Britain. Cain has been in the lineup five times as a hitter (.158 batting average), but has made only one start as a pitcher this season. In that game, a 7-2 loss to the Norwich Sea Unicorns, Cain allowed two earned runs in four innings. The Bees’ offensive star so far this season has been outfielder Alec Ritch. Ritch ranks third in the FCBL in batting average (.381) and is tied for second in RBI’s with eight. He has been stellar through the early portion of the season.

    A’s News Clips, Monday, October 11, 2010 Vermont starts work with new parent club MIKE DONAHUE, VERMONT FREE PRESS, 10/7/2010 The Oakland Athletics are looking forward to their Single-A short-season team having a positive relationship in its new home in Burlington, the franchise’s longtime director of minor league baseball operations said Thursday. “We tend not to move. We are more about relationships, getting to know people, knowing people in town,” said Ted Polakowski, who was in Burlington for a series of meetings with the Vermont Lake Monsters. The A’s reached a two-year agreement last month to provide minor league players to the Lake Monsters. The agreement followed the end of a 17-year relationship between the Vermont team and the Montreal Expos/Washington Nationals franchise. “It was more fact-finding, start to break the ice, start to get to know each other,” Polakowski said about his visit. “I think it was a start of a great relationship. The A’s are a very family oriented organization and we are happy with the our new relationship,” Lake Monsters general manager Nate Cloutier said. Polakowski had meetings with Lake Monsters owner Ray Pecor, vice president Kyle Bostwick and Cloutier. They also toured aging Centennial Field, which is controlled by the University of Vermont. Reports for the Commissioner of Major League Baseball say the ballpark has substandard conditions for the playing surface, the lights and the dressing rooms. “Obviously, the facility report says it is not stellar,” Polakowski said of the field. “I’m not sure whether it played into the Nationals hand on leaving, but it may have.
