Stronger Communities Hathaway-Sycamores CHILD and FAMILY SERVICES Mission 2012-2013 Annual Report Stronger families… Stronger communities Hathaway-Sycamores CHILD AND FAMILY SERVICES Mission: Cultivating hope and resilience to enrich the well-being of children, adults, families and communities. dedication Renée LaBran, William P. Martone heal. hope. thrive. Accredited by The Joint Commission Western Association of Schools and Colleges Dear Friends: It seems that in recent years we have been regularly confronted in this country with tragedies involving our young people – be it a teen suicide, or a senseless act of violence such as a mass shooting. While each is very different in nature, many of these heartbreaking events highlight the ease with which youth mental illness can slip through the cracks in our communities and schools, leading to tragic results. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, only 20% of children with mental disorders are identified and receive mental health services. Furthermore, 50% of students age 14 and older who are living with mental illness drop out of high school. These statistics contribute to a variety of social issues with which we must grapple. As a provider of mental health services to children and families, Hathaway- Sycamores Child and Family Services is uniquely positioned to share our virtually unrivaled expertise in addressing these statistics. For more than 111 years, we have steadfastly focused on our mission of cultivating hope and resilience to enrich the well-being of children, adults, families, and communities. Today we stand as one of Los Angeles County’s largest, nonprofit, private children’s mental health and welfare agencies, providing a comprehensive continuum of therapeutic and other support services to more than 8,500 children and families annually. One of Hathaway –Sycamores’ key programs is our school-based services. Available to youth in the Alhambra, Glendale, Los Angeles, and Pasadena Unified School Districts, this program serves as a vital safety net designed to prevent tragedies by treating students struggling with mental health issues. One such student was Hector. When Hector started high school, thoughts of suicide dominated his day, and angry outbursts characterized his actions. On the verge of failing out of school and giving up on life, Hector was referred to one of Hathaway-Sycamores’ on-campus therapists. After two years of intensive therapy, Hector emerged a new young man filled with hope, happiness, and forgiveness for those who had harmed him. Today, Hector is a vibrant, engaged college student, intent on becoming a therapist himself. To learn more about Hector’s inspiring story, visit www. hathaway-sycamores.org. We’ve set the standard for innovation and best practices designed to help children – many of whom have endured horrific trauma – heal, hope, and thrive. Your support, as well as the skill and dedication of our more than 650 staff members and our board of directors, enables Hathaway-Sycamores to share success stories such as Hector’s. Thank you for helping us to make a difference. William P. Martone Renée LaBran President & CEO Chair of the Board Board of Directors Renée LaBran Chair of the Board Henry Matson Michael Galper Vice Chair of the Board “My wife and I support Hathaway-Sycamores for all their innovative programs that enable children and families to overcome the challenges John Amato David A.

    WALLPAPER Bruce Boone Bruce Boone in Conversation with Evan Kennedy 7 WALLPAPER 13 Bruce Boone in Conversation with Evan Kennedy 551 to Daddy Spencer Walter Remington Bruce Boone in Conversation with Evan Kennedy May 17, 2019; Bruce’s Apartment in San Francisco EK: What would you like readers to know about WALLPAPER? What was your method of composition? BB: In the olden days while we were fighting the Language poets, I decided I would be the ideologue and pit-bull against Ron Silli- man. I called his writing “wallpaper.” I did apologize a few years ago, and he said something a bit nasty in return because I didn’t expand upon it. But since then, I’ve been doing all this other stuff built around mess at all levels. It also goes along with the lin- guistic streamlining or minimalizing of American language that’s going on very noticeably now, especially if you have the ears to compare it with the slowness of linguistic change of the past. The Persians are the great example of this minimalizing from clas- sical antiquity. It started out as just a tiny sliver of Iran, then they went to India, then Afghanistan, then west — Greece, Macedonia, the Middle East. The language before the empire was syntacti- cally complex and inflected, but if you’re the Persians, you’re the masters. If you’re going to say “Tote that barge, lift that bale” to fifty-eight different nationalities, they have to understand you. By the end, they came out with no inflections, no syntax. What happens in this country? There are a lot of impulses toward simplifying.
