Annual Repo rt 2011 raise the bar Mission Iona supports people as they experience the challenges and opportunities of aging. We educate, advocate and provide community-based programs and services to help people age well and live well. Vision We envision a community that celebrates, values, respects and protects the contributions and possibilities of every individual.

“Life was never meant to be fair—but we need to make it more fair than it is. I hope as people who care, you will care enough and do everything in your power to make sure that the work of Iona continues.” Diane Rehm, host of The Diane Rehm Show

Iona is very grateful to Bloomberg BNA for printing our annual report. Bloomberg BNA is a wonderful community partner and we are deeply appreciative of their support.

“Raise the Bar” is the theme of this year’s Annual Report. We’ve all heard the phrase before, but why are we using it here? What does it mean to Iona Senior Services at this moment in our long history? For one thing, we are facing more complex challenges than we’ve ever faced before: waiting lists for people who need home-delivered meals and subsidized care management; 30% more hours spent to assist each person we served with care management than the previous year because of the complexity of the issues and waiting lists for other available supports; a 40% increase in the number of calls to our Helpline; a food crisis when the District’s long- term vendor for congregate and home-delivered meals went bankrupt. In addition, the economic challenges of the past year have brought budget cuts for all DC Office onA ging grantees.

So, why “Raise the Bar?” Because we need to do better, as Blair Kutrow and Sally White individuals, as an organization and as a community to support older adults and caregivers who need us, to engage those individuals who have the skills to help us, to give back to the community that we are all a part of and to demand that our local government does better for its most vulnerable citizens.

At the same time, our challenges are also our opportunities, as we continue to raise not only the bar but the profile of the work we do by creating best practices, advocating on behalf of the older residents of our area and developing new partnerships with both local and national organizations such as AARP and LeadingAge.

On the following pages, you will meet members of the Iona family who are raising the bar: Rose Clifford, Deborah Rubenstein, Edna Barber, Susan and Brian Rodgers, and Richard Snowdon.

As we look back on our 36th year and ahead to our 37th, we are grateful to the many people who are helping us Raise the Bar: our staff and volunteers, board members and member congregations, and especially to the thousands of donors listed on pages 12–15. To you we offer our heartfelt appreciation.

Sincerely,

Sally S. White, Executive Director

Blair H. Kutrow, President, Board of Directors

Today, as Iona’s Director of Consultation, Care Manage- ment and Counseling, Rubenstein guides a team of social workers and nurses who provide care management to older adults in their homes; oversees a counseling pro- gram and numerous support groups for both seniors and caregivers; partners with employers to provide eldercare counseling in the workplace; and leads public forums on topics ranging from memory loss to aging at home to caring for someone who does not want help. Rubenstein was part of the team that developed Iona’s private pay care management and consultation services. These ser- vices assist families from throughout the metropolitan area and generate critical financial support to subsidize the care Iona provides to low-income clients. Deborah Rubenstein

Rose Clifford: Eat Well, Age Well “I love food and I love science,” says Rose Clifford, a registered dietician with an MBA in busi- ness marketing. “My work is an intersection of the two.” Four years ago, Clifford began working with older adults. At Iona, she works one-on-one with individuals who face unique nutritional challenges, provides nutrition education to groups in the community and works close- ly with the nutritionist at the DC Office on Aging to improve the quality of the meals served to older adults in the District. Food security tops the list of concerns. “We are seeing more and more older adults who are Rose Clifford ‘food insecure’—that is they When Clifford and other Iona don’t know where their next staff learned that the DC Office meal will come from,” says on Aging’s food vendor was going Iona’s Executive Director Sally bankrupt and the homebound se- White.

T“ hen it seems obvious.” At age 69, Snowdon says he has “an enlightened self-interest” in Iona’s mission—and its success. “The scary thing is, when you look at the numbers, the population is getting older at the same time the number of caregivers is declining. If the people are not there to provide those services, we’re looking at a train wreck.” To do their part, Snowdon and his wife drive older neighbors to doctors’ appointments through the local aging in place village organization forming in their Georgetown neighborhood. “Hopefully there will be someone coming up behind us to drive when it’s our turn,” he says. “Everyone I talk to says they want to age at home,” he says. “That is what the growing village movement is all about. Many people don’t realize that Iona is the original village, the oldest and best of the aging in place groups. You want to support the best because they create best practices for others to emulate.” Richard Snowdon

Raise the Bar 2011 ANNUAL REPORT 15 FY 2011 Statement of Activities FISCAL YEAR OCTOBER 1, 2010—SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 Iona was audited in 2011 by Rogers and Company. For a copy of the most recent audited financial statements, please contact Iona at (202) 895-9416 or email [email protected].

Total Revenue $2,949,274 2% 4% Investment Income $68,583 Donated Services and Facilities $112,570 3% Other Income $100,012 26% 38% Participant Income and Insurance Contributions $1,125,695 Reimbursement $774,536 26% Government Grants $767,878

Total Expenses $2,944,143 14% Fundraising $407,468 9% Administration $259,314 77% Program services $2,277,361

Although Iona was able to balance the 2011 budget despite another 5% cut in government funding, the Board of Directors and staff know that, in the long-term, this is not enough to meet the growing demands. In order to serve the increasingly complex needs of an aging population in the greater metropolitan region, Iona’s leaders are looking at ways to raise the bar on funding to allow for continued proactive growth and innovation in the future.
