“When I had the baby I was so afraid but The Gathering Place helped me with diapers, wipes, and baby food. Things that I was struggling to get on my own, so that kept me from feeling like I couldn’t do it...

I don’t really trust my daughter with a lot of people, she’s my only one and I don’t have any family here, but I trust them. -Leonora, TGP Family Area Client From the President/CEO

“For The Gathering Place, diversity is life. Each day the types of people who come to receive our services vacillate on the most basic level between those who are unaccompanied and those who come with children and families. Within and across each group the differences are remarkable – an array of people from all walks of life, with different educational levels, from different countries, with varying family backgrounds, educations, and life experiences. The defining characteristics that bring everyone together are a need for services and a willingness to ask for help. With this in mind, The Gathering Place community strives to offer choice and an opportunity for decision-making about one’s own needs, desires, and plans for the future. This adds to the complexity of the organization and it enhances our learning and our value to each other.

We challenge ourselves to learn about cultures and lifestyles with which we are not familiar. We strive to recruit and retain volunteers and staff that reflect the diversity of the people we serve. We learn new skills, struggle and forgive our mistakes, and continue to move forward with a focus on offering each person something familiar, something needed, and a unique experience that will support the individual and the family. We are grateful to the many partnerships we have in the public and private sector that make our goals possible, to the donors who support us in being uniquely harmonious, and to the people we serve who have the courage to ask for help and who touch our lives in ways we only imagined.” Leslie Foster, President & CEO, The Gathering Place The Gathering Place President & CEO Debra MacKillop, Housing Stabilization Development Operations Leslie Foster Advocate Brenda Roush, Vice President Rhonda Morroni, Vice President Nancy Harris Joann Calabrese Basic Services Department Women’s Services Samantha Horoschak Rose Castle Berlinda Olivas, Vice President Ashley Biekarck, Director Laura Meixell Barb Edwards Sara Avant, Metro State College Intern Patricia Rule Olga Mezentseva Family Services Billie Jean Crawford Denny Thompson Dawnisha Penny Kathy Poirier, Director Amy Erickson, Urban Servant Corps Lisa Zavoda Betsy Fulnecky Volunteer Volunteer Department Linda Gonzales Margie Fuentes Personal Growth and Learning Justine Zollo, Vice President Sarah Pierce Kat Gorrie Sunne Meyer, Vice President Anna Inazu Angela Welker, Colorado Vincentian Geri Marquez Mary Ellen Arthur Lucia Ishikawa Volunteer Sohmer Mascia Ruth Dantzer, Iliff School of Theology Pauletta Mosley Intern Food Services Erika Rodriguez Rachel Hosmer, DWELL Volunteer *Mental Health Center of Denver employee Brook Engebretson-Horton, Director Lydia Rodriquez Jean Iadevito, Adult Education Libby Payne Care Toennis, Coordinator*** ** Denver Dept. of Human Josette Sandoval Intern Bridget Johnson Services employee Erin Walrath, University of Denver Intern Pam Leder Housing and Benefits Leon Oliver, Clinical Specialist* ***Community College of Stacey Soom, Program Case Coordinator, Human Resources Denver employee DDHS** Allyson Therien, Vice President

The Gathering Place 2008-2009 Annual Report Page 2 From the Governing Board Chair

“Diversity in today’s world is perhaps an overworked word. Not at The Gathering Place where the women and children that we serve are both single and married. Some have their children or grandchildren with them. Others are by themselves. The people we serve come from all races, religions, and economic and educational backgrounds with a variety of issues, circumstances and needs. Some require something as simple as RTD bus tokens for transportation to a job interview or medical appointment. Others may require medical treatment, computer training, decent clothing, a hot meal or even counseling. Sadly, some of these women are veterans of the homeless or near-homeless experience. Also, we are seeing many new homeless women and their children. Some are victims of physical abuse and domestic violence. Some have recently become unemployed and are unable to afford their rent and have no place to go.

Leslie and her senior management team have done a wonderful job of recruiting, training and deploying a versatile and flexible staff who must adapt to a variety of clients’ needs that change daily. In addition to being totally dedicated, our staff are smart, agile, and can move quickly when opportunities become available to enhance our ability to provide more resources for the women and children we serve.

I am astounded in this time of greater need and fewer financial resources to watch a devoted and committed staff provide exceptional service to such a diverse client base.” Dave Herlinger, 2008-2009 Chair, Governing Board of Directors

In spite of the tough economic climate during this reported fiscal year (October 1, 2008 to September 30, 2009) The Gathering Place continued to provide the same quality programs and services to everyone who came to us in need.

During this year we experienced record numbers of individuals seeking our services, especially those who had become homeless for the first time in their lives. During this same period of time The Gathering Place we realized that we needed to make some difficult adjustments as many of our long-time donors Financial Statement were forced to pull back on the amount of support they could extend during the recession. October 1, 2008 – September 30, 2009 Although it was a tough year, we weathered the storm without having to cut any programs or Support and Revenue services, nor were we forced to endure any staff layoffs.
