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.
