Dear Friends:
Deep poverty is at the source of many of the challenges that the majority of people served
by CGSHB face. Because of poverty, families and individuals experience tremendous stress
which for some leads to isolation, drug and alcohol abuse, child maltreatment, domestic
violence, and homelessness. Not only does CGSHB respond to the urgent needs for child
protection and family rehabilitation, but our services also aim to help address the root cause
– poverty.
CGSHB looks deeply into the lives of the thousands of people we touch each year. We understand that they wish
for productive and happy lives. They want to be safe, healthy, educated, gainfully employed, to have families, and
to be able to fulfill their hopes and dreams. They ask for family and friends that will love and help, and not harm
them. They come to us with their hands out-stretched, trusting that we will help.
CGSHB, with its skilled and devoted staff and caregivers,
is the agent that helps to make all of this
possible. The heart of CGSHB responds with
great care and compassion.
Life is so busy for many of us. We rush
about tending to the many demands and
obligations of our lives. We are thankful
when we have time to rest and reflect
upon our many blessings. When we have
these precious moments, we often turn to loving
family and friends and to our communities
to enjoy them with. At the same time, when we
are rushing about, it is important to be aware that
often the people next to us, perhaps sitting on
the subway or bus, or passing by on the sidewalk, are
in great need. Some of them are in need of the services
that CGSHB can provide.
CGSHB has been serving thousands of people in great need
each year for the past 113 years. That translates into hundreds
of thousands of people served. It’s reassuring to know that they are
receiving quality and compassionate care.
I invite you to come and look at some of the lives made better because of CGSHB. And, I thank all of the
dedicated staff, caregivers, community partners, supporters, donors, and CGSHB’s Board of Directors for
. making this good work possible.
Most sincerely,
Craig Longley
Acting Executive Director

Quality and
CGSHB serves many of the neediest people in the New York City metro-
politan area. We protect and nurture disadvantaged children and individuals with
disabilities, increase their prospects for self-sufficiency, strengthen the family
structures integral to their support, and continually adapt our responses to their
ever-changing needs.
Sometimes, even in these troubled economic times, it is difficult to comprehend
how challenging life is for many of the families we serve. Here in New York,
one of the wealthiest cities in the world, almost 21% of the population lives in
poverty as measured by an income of just $19,090 for a family of three. In those
neighborhoods where so many CGSHB families live, the situation is even worse.
A full one-third of Bronx residents, for example, live in poverty.
Innocent children, as always, are the hardest hit. Nearly 30% of all New York
City children are in families living in poverty … and are threatened by the social
maladies it engenders – homelessness, domestic violence, and child abuse and
neglect. It is shocking to realize that 19,000 children sleep in NYC homeless
shelters every night, including two operated by CGSHB.
Life is equally challenging for individuals with developmental disabilities and
their families. Regardless of economic circumstances, all of these parents worry
10,000
Vulnerable New Yorkers in Need

Compassionate Care
about their children’s future security once they themselves no longer can provide
care. And, all too often, these families must confront both developmental disabilities
and the scourge of poverty.
In response, CGSHB develops and delivers high impact, high quality programs
and services to assist these children, individuals, and families in crisis. We
help them stabilize their lives and build towards a safe, secure and self-sufficient
future.
We employ trained professionals who are deeply committed to achieving
significant, positive outcomes for the people who come to us for help. We work
with policy makers, practitioners, researchers and academia to find and implement
“best practice” programs – including many which are “evidence-based” with
nationally-recognized track records of success.
With over 1,200 employees deployed across 6 offices and 40 residential facilities,
CGSHB serves thousands of people in need every day.
Our goal today is the same as it has been for 113 years -- to have a meaningful
influence on the lives of infants, children, youth, and adults and to provide them
with the life changing help they need… at a time when they need it most.

Rosalie Hall Maternity Services
There are few more desperate situations than those faced by women who are pregnant,
without resources and support – some homeless and victims of domestic violence.
Rosalie Hall Maternity Services helps these women and their children to overcome the
potential threats of homelessness, lack of health care, inadequate nutrition, uncertain citizenship
status, educational deficiencies, unemployment, mental health challenges and domestic abuse.
RHMS assists young mothers to access pre- and post-natal health care, as well as nutrition
assistance, in order to ensure the safe delivery of their baby.
RHMS helps women to develop a realistic life plan for how they will support and care for
their child, including education, employment, and child care considerations. RHMS refers mothers
to appropriate governmental benefits and supports and, where necessary, provides direct
donations of baby clothes, maternity furniture and child care supplies.
RHMS’ new Parenting Journey classes are a nationally-recognized program that helps parents
who may never have been nurtured themselves learn to raise and care for their own children.
The Parenting Journey works through example by giving parents the love and support they may
have missed when they were children. Over meals in a warm and supportive environment, parents
are encouraged to care for themselves and each other while participating in a series of experiential
exercises and activities that teach them concrete skills – and how to be loving parents.
For women who believe they are not in a position to raise a child themselves, RHMS offers
counseling on “The Adoption Option”. RHMS assists young mothers in all aspects of placing a
child for adoption, including selection of adoptive parents, legal referrals, choosing an appropriate
level of “openness” in the adoption, and pre- and post-adoption counseling.
While thousands of young women in New York may be pregnant and without sufficient
resources, CGSHB believes that they never need be alone. Rosalie Hall Maternity Services is
there to help them get their family off to a safe and healthy start.

For Her
Daughter’s Future
Fatema made the decision to flee her war-torn
African homeland after learning that she was pregnant
with a baby girl. She didn’t want her daughter
to grow up facing the same persecution and
torture that she had.
Once in the United States, however, the culture
shock, her dire circumstances and anxiety over
the imminent birth of her daughter all became
overwhelming. She knew she needed help – but
had nowhere to turn. Thankfully, a hospital social
worker referred her to CGSHB’s Rosalie Hall Maternity
Services (RHMS).
Kaci Krpec, her RHMS social worker, helped her
seek legal asylum in the U.S. as a victim of torture.
Throughout the lengthy application process, RHMS
met Fatema’s most urgent needs for food, housing,
health care and baby supplies. In addition,
Kaci offered counseling, parenting education and
emotional support.
“What stands out the most about Fatema, despite
her struggles, is her ability to stay positive,” says
Kaci. “You can always count on her to come into
the office smiling and graciously thanking everyone
for all the help she has been given.” It is no coincidence
that her adorable daughter seems to carry
these same exceptional traits. “At eight months
now, she is always calm, sweet, and smiling from
ear to ear,” says Kaci.
“I’m just so grateful to have found you all,” says
Fatema. “You’ve done so much for me and my
baby. I find myself crying sometimes because I
am just so happy to have you around me and my
baby.”

The Miracle of Adoption
Every year, CGSHB adoptions permanently transform hundreds of lives – both for children
who are alone in the world and for men and women who wish to give them a loving family.
In FY2012, we arranged for the adoption of 119 children who previously had been placed
in foster care. In many cases, these were children who had already suffered through parental
abuse or neglect, and subsequently been abandoned.
When a return home is not possible, CGSHB places children with foster families who have
expressed an interest in adoption. We identify potential adoptive parents whose interests and
capabilities are appropriate for the particular needs of an individual foster care child.
Our Rosalie Hall Maternity Services (RHMS) Division facilitates both international and
domestic adoptions.
The RHMS International Adoption Program is accredited under the Hague Convention on
Protection of Children with Respect to Inter-Country Adoption. We work with orphanages and/
or national authorities in Bulgaria and the Dominican Republic. As a “waiting child” placement
agency, we locate families in the NYC area who wish to adopt children from these countries who
have already been approved by local authorities as in need of international adoption.
We have also worked with Hague accredited partner agencies to facilitate adoptions of
children from Russia and Ethiopia. And, we provide the necessary home assessment and local
supervision necessary for families to complete “kinship adoptions” of relatives from the Dominican
Republic, Jamaica, Guyana, Panama and Haiti.
Our Domestic Adoptions include a Private Adoption program through which we match the
children of young women in our RHMS program who choose the “Adoption Option” with prospective
adoptive parents. We reach out to a broad range of nonprofit agencies, attorneys, social
workers, medical personnel, and clergy members in order to make our services widely available.
Through the miracle of adoption, we create new and “forever families.”

Foster Care Children Adopted
International & Domestic Adoption Home Studies Completed

Searching for a
Happy Ending
Shawnisha Ford would seem to have it all. At the
age of 12, she is a four-time honor roll student,
friendly and popular, who likes to write poetry
and short stories. She loves to dance, and enjoys
macaroni and cheese. When she grows up,
Shawnisha hopes to become a teacher, a pediatrician…
or maybe a poet. She is already thinking
about college. Last year, she visited Penn State
and the University of Connecticut.
There is only one thing missing: a family of her
own.
Shawnisha was placed in foster care in 2005. In
2009, her case was transferred to CGSHB .
“She is one of the most articulate and motivated
children I have ever met,” says Case Planner
Thomas Harris who has worked with Shawnisha
since then.
Now, Mr. Harris and Adoption Specialist Shawn
Lightburn are working hard to make sure that
Shawnisha gets that permanent loving home
she deserves. She was recently profiled in the
Wednesday’s Child segment of WNBC-TV News,
which highlights local children seeking adoptive
homes, and lit up the switchboard.
It seems, however, that Shawnisha’s future family
may have been waiting a little closer to home.
The mother of her best friend has indicated that
the family would like to adopt Shawnisha. A
Pre-Adoptive Home Study is underway. That
would be poetry!

Foster Family and Residential Care
CGSHB’s Foster Family and Residential Care programs offer immediate safety, as well as a path
to permanent security, for children who are temporarily unable to live at home with their families due to
a risk of abuse or neglect.
Approximately 700 carefully trained foster families provide warm and caring homes for more than
1,000 children in Manhattan and the Bronx. Our larger and professionally-staffed residential programs
are available for children who are older and require higher levels of therapeutic services.
Our primary goal is to help families resolve any issues which may be an obstacle to reunification.
We offer counseling and referrals for parenting skills training, substance abuse treatment, mental
health services, housing and employment programs, etc. In FY2012, we were successful in safely
reuniting 425 children with their families -- 25% of those placed in our care.
In cases where reunification is not possible, we assist children in finding new homes through
adoptive families.
In addition to traditional foster family settings, we offer specialized foster care programs to meet
the varying therapeutic needs of children in our care:
• Our Kinship Family Foster Care program allows children to be placed with loving family members
– grandparents, aunts, uncles, older siblings, cousins, etc.
• Treatment Family Foster Care serves over 100 children with serious emotional challenges.
• Our new Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care (MTFC) Program serves adolescents with serious
antisocial or delinquent behaviors and/or juvenile justice involvement.
• Our Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) Group Homes are community-based alternatives to
psychiatric hospital placement, in which youth are provided with comprehensive mental health
services.
• Young women in foster care who have children of their own or are pregnant are served by our
Rosalie Hall Maternity Services program.

Children Secure in Caring Foster Homes
Children Safely Reunited with Their Families

The Dean’s List
Angelee Camacho has a goal. She realized while
in high school that she wanted to become a
Special Education Teacher. Now, the 19-year-old
is working hard to make that dream a reality as a
Junior at Wells College in Aurora, NY.
CGSHB first began working with Angelee six years
ago when she entered foster care and began living
with her aunt, as a result of her family’s chronic
addiction to drugs and alcohol.
For too many children, early childhood traumas
that ultimately require foster care placement
create an overwhelming emotional obstacle to
success and happiness later in life. With the help
of her aunt and CGSHB, Angelee has been able to
overcome these extraordinary challenges that so
often lead to academic failure, unemployment and
homelessness.
Angelee’s ambition to teach comes as no surprise
to Caroline Duran, her CGSHB Case Planner who
has known her since 2010. “She always encourages
her younger siblings to read and perform well
in school,” says Ms. Duran. Meanwhile, Angelee is
doing pretty well herself. “I made the Dean’s List
last year,” she explains.
Angelee keeps busy and active even when not
hitting the books. She enjoys reading, dancing
and sports. And, she has a job at the local movie
theater.
While Angelee misses her aunt, she knows that
going away to college is an important step in life.
“My aunt always told me that you have to grow up
to be your own person,” she says.

Youth Development
For far too many foster care youth, the transition to adulthood at age 21 has meant a life
of unemployment and homelessness. At CGSHB, we are working hard to make certain that
our children enjoy a significantly brighter future.
Our Youth Development Department prepares all youth in our foster care program between
the ages of 14-21 to become physically and emotionally healthy, socially and economically
self-reliant, as well as educationally and vocationally prepared for a successful future.
Youth Development and Education Specialists provide referrals for tutorial services, Special
Education programs, GED services, and pre- and post- college admissions support.
Our Preparing Youth for Adulthood skills trainings offer real world preparation for the challenges
of living independently, including money management, health and nutrition, accessing
community resources, and finding housing.
Career planning, vocational training and work experience are particularly critical.
A few years ago, CGSHB launched an exciting new collaboration with Swissport, a major
international provider of ground services at airports. Through this partnership, we are able to
offer our own foster care youth as well as those from other local foster care agencies – training
and valuable entry-level employment in the rapidly expanding travel, transportation and hospitality
industry. CGSHB provides initial screening and pre-employment preparation; Swissport
offers job-specific skills training and paid positions in its wide array of operations at John F.
Kennedy International Airport.
CGSHB has developed a Culinary Arts Program for older foster care youth interested in
pursuing careers in the restaurant and food services industry. We offer a series of trainings
through the Institute for Culinary Education in Manhattan at which young people learn kitchen
fundamentals. We also are exploring ways to expand our program through collaborations
with organizations such as the Careers through Culinary Arts Program (C-CAP) and Women’s
Housing and Economic Development Corporation (WHEDco) in the Bronx.

Gateway to the World
Danielle Rivera is going places. Since leaving
foster care last May, the 22-year-old has been
serving as a ground hostess for a variety of airlines
at John F. Kennedy International Airport.
“Right now I’m working with Singapore Airlines,”
she says. “I check people in for their flights, take
their baggage, give them their boarding passes
and help them to board the plane.”
Danielle’s entry-level position – a critical first step
towards a real career in the travel/transportation/
hospitality industry – has been made possible
through CGSHB’s partnership with Swissport,
an international provider of ground services at
airports around the globe. During the past year
alone, Danielle already has had experience with
several Swissport clients – Royal Air Maroc, Meridean
Airways, Hellenic and XL Airways France.
“I love working at the airport,” says Danielle. “Every
day I meet different people who are travelling
all over the world.”
For the moment, Danielle is logging plenty of
miles right here in NYC, commuting from her
apartment in the Bronx to both JFK and Borough
of Manhattan Community College, where she
soon will be graduating with an Associate’s Degree.
“I travel to three different boroughs every
day,” she says.
Danielle Rivera’s reward for the hard work and
“frequent flier” subway miles will be more than
just a one-time upgrade to first class. It’s a passport
to an infinitely bigger world and a boarding
pass for a good career and a better life.

Family Day Care
CGSHB’s Family Day Care program has been a win-win-win for poor and low income
Bronx families for almost a quarter century.
• Children participate in a carefully structured program that is both educational and recreational.
They learn to socialize with children their own age, under adult supervision, while
also preparing for future success in school when they move on to kindergarten and the
first grade.
• Parents can work or attend school knowing that their children are safe and well cared for
in a high-quality program that is matched to their ability to pay;
• Our trained and licensed Family Day Care Providers have the opportunity to develop
their own home-based small business, earning a good income for their families while also
meeting a critical community need.
Our program offered up to ten hours per day of care, five days per week, for children
aged 6 months up to age 13. Care is provided in the homes of Family Day Care Providers
who are recruited, trained and supervised by CGSHB. All providers are licensed by the New
York City Department of Health (DOH).
Providers offer a structured educational program as well as indoor and outdoor recreation
on a daily basis. They provide two full course meals and one snack that are reimbursed
by the DOH.
CGSHB’s Family Day Care Program is a supplemental child welfare program. Eligibility
is determined based on income guidelines and/ or policies set by the NYC Administration for
Children’s Services. Parents or guardians must be employed, seeking employment, and/or
attending school or a training program. Family day care also is offered to foster parents and to
parents of children who may be at risk of foster care placement.
During FY2012, our 105 Family Day Care Providers cared for 467 children every day.

Family Child Care offers many women an opportunity
to build their own small business – while also
providing a valuable service to their community.
Five days a week for the last 12 years, Denia Lopez
has opened her home and looked after her neighbors’
children from 8:00 in the morning until 6:00
in the afternoon.
“These mothers would not be able to go to work if
we weren’t here,” she explains.
For Denia, however, Family Child Care is also something
of a family tradition. “My mother had a child
care business when I was growing up,” she says.
“I used to help out. And, I found out that I liked it
and wanted to do it too.”
After beginning as a Family Child Care provider for
six children, Denia expanded to Group Family Child
Care serving up to 12. She brought in her husband,
Amaruy, as a partner. “I wanted a helper I could
trust,” she says.
CGSHB provides referrals, oversight and the training
Denia and other providers are mandated to
receive as part of the licensing process. “We want
to ensure these children are ready when they go to
kindergarten,” says Denia.
And, perhaps, the generational cycle is about to
repeat itself. “Now, my kids are helping me out
afterschool,” she says.

Family Support Services
Children do best when living at home with parents who love them. Our Family Support
Services programs help families to overcome the challenges of poverty, unemployment, homelessness,
mental illness, substance abuse and/or domestic violence which can place a child at
risk of abuse or neglect.
Professionally trained Case Managers provide parents with counseling, guidance and
support while ensuring the child’s safety, thereby avoiding any further trauma that can come
with a removal and foster care placement.
Our Family First and Family Unity Preventive Services Programs bring safety and stability
to over 1,000 families annually in the Parkchester/Soundview and Williamsbridge/ Baychester
sections of the Bronx.
Our Parenting Journey Training allows parents to improve their parenting skills by exploring
and then addressing the impact of their own childhood family experiences.
Other specially-designed services meet the particular needs of individual families:
• Intensive Preventive and After-Care Services (IPAS) is a unique comprehensive program
using Functional Family Therapy, a nationally recognized therapeutic model, in reducing
recidivism for youthful offenders.
• Healthy Families Parkchester is an evidence-based program which ensures the healthy
development of children from before birth to three years of age.
• The Family Unity Program now focuses its interventions on families affected by substance
abuse and mental illness.
The safety of children is always our first priority. Once that is assured, we believe that
preserving and strengthening their families as a whole is the best way to give children
opportunities for a safe, happy and successful future.

A Mother’s Love
Life is filled with challenges for many young
mothers. The birth of a child can be both a
joyous … and a difficult… time. When Wendy
Pagan gave birth to her son Jose, staff at the
hospital were concerned that she might not be
able to appropriately care for her new baby.
After a referral to New York City’s Administration
for Children’s Services, Catholic Guardian Society
and Home Bureau was called in to help ensure
that Wendy and her husband Jose, Sr. would have
the help they needed… and that little Jose could
remain safely at home with his parents.
CGSHB Preventive Case Planner Lovy C. Dorceus,
B.S. has been working with the Pagans during the
past several months, helping to ensure that Wendy
receives appropriate medical care. Ms. Dorceus
also enrolled the couple in parenting classes and
other appropriate programs.
“The Pagans have been extremely receptive
to services,” says Ms. Dorceus. “Mrs. Pagan is
doing well, taking her medications and keeping
her doctors’ appointments. Mr. Pagan has
been willing to participate in the workshops and
classes we recommend. The whole family is doing
very well.”
“I love my baby,” says Wendy. “I am the mother
of my baby and no one could love him more
than me.”

Shelter for Homeless Women and Children
Sadly, the vast majority of New York City homeless shelter residents are mothers and children.
Many of these women find themselves in need of transitional housing due to economic stress. They
lose their jobs; then they lose their apartments. Many others, however, are fleeing lives filled with
domestic violence or substance abuse in the hopes of building a new future for themselves and their
children.
CGSHB offers shelter for a total of 26 women and their children at the Mother Elizabeth Seton
Residence and the Mitty Transitional Housing Program on any one day. Both of these residential
programs are located in the Bronx and accept women and their children who are referred by the NYC
Department of Homeless Services.
In addition to safe and secure housing, each of the CGSHB residential programs offers a full
range of counseling and support services to help young mothers and women in crisis build a happy
and successful future for their families. We provide assessments, counseling and referrals to outside
resources for education, employment and permanent housing, as well as parenting skills and substance
abuse/mental health services where needed.
Our programs also take special steps to address the well documented health risks associated
with homelessness. An estimated one-third of homeless mothers have chronic health conditions
such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, cardiovascular disease and hypertension. One third of infants
who are born into homelessness lack the essential immunizations and face increased risk for infectious
diseases. Poor diets also lead to nutritional problems such as stunted growth, obesity, and
vitamin deficiencies. Our on-site Registered Nurse affords each family with much-needed medical
services as well as referrals to immunizations, mental health, nutrition, dental care, smoking cessations,
and developmental screenings. She also advocates for clients who are changing health plans.
At CGSHB, our transitional housing for women and children is only temporary. Yet, we believe
the services we provide to these families during their stay can have a positive impact that will last a
lifetime.

Safety for Her
Children’s Sake
Tashiea had been living with family - and her
18-month-old daughter Rihver - when she knew it
was time to find help.
“Family members had relapsed,” she explains, her
eyes reliving a lifetime of pain from family struggles
with drug addiction. “There were all sorts of
people coming and going at all hours. It was an
unsafe environment for my daughter. I needed to
find someplace safe.”
New York City’s Department of Homeless Services
referred her to Catholic Guardian’s Mitty
Transitional Housing program in the Bronx, where
she received the support she needed to get her
life back on track.
With two years of college already under her belt,
Catholic Guardian helped Tashiea plan to begin
a nursing program at Bronx Community College
in September. And, she is on the waiting list for
semipermanent housing available for eligible
students.
At 26 Tashiea knows what she wants - a safe and
secure life for Rihver and her new baby boy, due
any time. She also knows ~ what she has to do to
get it. “I want to go to school and get a career,”
she says .
One thing that Tashiea never wanted to do
was drugs. “I saw what it did to my family,” she
explains sadly.

Home & Family
for Individuals with Disabilities
CGSHB is both home and family for almost 200 individuals with developmental disabilities.
They live in our 32 community-based residential and respite programs throughout New
York City and Long Island, where they are cared for by our deeply committed and caring direct
support staff.
Many of these consumers have lived with us for decades, coming to CGSHB following the
closure of large State institutions. Others joined us when loving but aging family members were no
longer able to provide appropriate care at home. The individuals we serve live with a wide range of
challenges, including Autism Spectrum Disorders, Down syndrome, Cerebral Palsy and more.
All of our residential programs are geared to the varying and individual needs and ability
levels of the residents. Several programs serve those who are multiply disabled, including our
long-standing residence for individuals who are both developmentally disabled and blind; a
new and growing program for consumers who are also deaf; and one of our newest homes for
those who have recently aged out of foster care.
CGSHB’s mission is to assist all of our residents – including those with the most severe disabilities
-- to live the fullest, most rewarding life possible. Our staff support individuals in becoming
a part of their local community. They go to day programs; work as volunteers or in paid jobs; attend
school; and participate in a broad range of recreational and cultural activities. Our consumers do
everything from playing soccer and going bowling, to visiting the Museum of Modern Art and travelling
to Hungary to represent the United States at a special camp for people with disabilities. Most
recently, we began offering paid apprenticeships for consumers so that they could have valuable
work experience to put on their resumes. They work with us for 6 months, gain valuable employment
skills and experience, and then seek jobs in the open market.
At CGSHB, we help our residents make their dreams come true.

The Story of His Life
Kash Brown has a big smile and an even bigger
heart. You can sense his inner strength in the
way he carries himself -- despite the developmental
challenges, the pain of losing his mother
at the age of 9, and growing up in foster care.
And, you can hear it… this blend of sensitivity
and determination… in the three rap CDs he has
written and produced over the last five years.
I know things don’t happen that easy…
Got to work hard for whatever you want.
It’s the story of my life.
It’s a struggle but I can’t give up!
It’s the story of my life.
Kash is an artist and a young man making a
very special place in the world. At 27, he now
shares an apartment with two other individuals
who also rely on a range of supports from
CGSHB’s Developmental Disabilities Services
Program.
Kash’s goal, however, is to live independently
– and CGSHB is helping to make it happen. He
recently graduated with a certificate from the
Global Business Institute and works several
days a week as an assistant at the agency’s
Bronx Foster Care office.
“I want to have a nice career and be able to
support what I love to do… my music,” he says.
That, Kash has decided for himself, will be the
story of his life.

Mary Jane Ridder
Compassion of
The Mary Jane Ridder Luncheon was established to honor the
memory of an exceptional woman who gave unstintingly of herself
to advance the good work of Rosalie Hall, which was founded by the
Misericordia Sisters in 1887 and continues to give mothers and mothers-to-be
all of the practical assistance they need to ensure their own
and their newborns’ well-being.
For years, Mary Jane Ridder arranged for baby showers for
women and children and she and her husband Victor reached out to
friends and colleagues to support not only these and other special
events but Rosalie Hall as well. In addition, Victor organized a Scout
troop for homeless boys in New York City and Mary Jane was social
minister at Saints John and Paul parish in Larchmont, New York and a
patient advocate at two Catholic hospitals in the Bronx.
Today, the Mary Jane Ridder Luncheon is maintained in loving
memory of Mary Jane and in recognition of her legacy of extraordinary
personal care and giving and the personification of the mission
of Rosalie Hall. Through emulation of her acts of charity, Westchester
Clockwise: 1. Nora McMillan, Lauren Powers, Eilis Powers, and Irish Benson.
2. Jeanine Rose, Mistress of Ceremonies. 3. Mary Smith and Marina Perna.
4. Westchester Friends of Rosalie Hall Maternity Services. 5. Jennifer Graziano-Mangano
and Valerie O’Keeffe. 6. Dottie Hartman, Honorary Chair, and Maureen Naughton.

Spring Luncheon
the Heart
Friends of Rosalie Hall come together to raise awareness and much
needed funds so that the mission of serving women facing unintended
pregnancies and mothers to-be in need of vital assistance may continue.
On June 7, 2012, the Mary Jane Ridder Spring Luncheon and Boutique
was held at The Larchmont Yacht Club and honored Sister Monique
Lallier, Superior General, and the Misericordia Sisters of Montreal.
Because of their particular ministry, the Misericordia Sisters are involved
in a society where, to this day, female heads of single parent
families are often disadvantaged. All too frequently, they live isolated from
supports that are needed and struggle to meet their needs and those of
their child. On this difficult path, support services are made available to
help them recover their autonomy, rediscover their strengths and regain
their self-confidence and confidence in others.
CGSHB is honored to be a part of the legacy of Mary Jane Ridder
and the Misericordia Sisters in this tradition of securing vital assistance
to pregnant and parenting women and their children.
Clockwise:1. Luncheon supporters. 2. Misericordia Sisters: Sister Monique Lallier, Sister Huguette
Lavoie, Sister Diane Prusinski, and Sister Ellen Hunt. 3. Vanessa Ridder, Tory Ridder, Maureen
Ridder, Valerie O’Keeffe, Karen Ridder Stuart, Mark Ridder and Gail Ridder. 4. Jeanine Rose and

27th Annual Child
On October 4th, CGSHB hosted the 27th Annual Child of Peace Award
Dinner to benefit Rosalie Hall Maternity Services. The evening was the most
successful in our history, drawing more than 325 attendees and raising over
$400,000 to support the agency’s work on behalf of mothers and newborns.
“Many things have changed since we began our work, but poor and lowincome
mothers still need crucial help with unintended pregnancies,” CGSHB
Board Chairman Rory Kelleher told the audience. “What remains at the core of
our mission is our readiness to respond to the needs of mothers and their newborns
with such practical concrete resources as counseling in parenting options,
parenting classes, access to pre- and post-natal care, help with immigration
issues, mentoring, peer-to-peer counseling, aftercare services, safe new cribs,
emergency assistance for food and rent, baby formula, baby clothes and related
maternity items. This is compassion of the heart in action and we have been
sharing it with mothers and children in need for over one hundred years.”
Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York, offered the
invocation.
The Dinner honored four outstanding New Yorkers for their support of the
Rosalie Hall Maternity Services mission.
• Louis J. Cappelli, Chairman and CEO of Sterling Bancorp/Sterling National
Bank, received the Child of Peace Award.
• Frances Florentino Imperial and Roger A. Imperial, II received the Humanitarian
Award.
• The Reverend Robert Michael Dunn, Chaplain of the Jeanne Jugan Center
in the Bronx received the Rosalie Cadron-Jetté Award for Courage and
Compassion.

of Peace Award Dinner
Louis J. Cappelli is a respected leader of the banking community and an active supporter of charitable
organizations. He began working at Sterling while still in college and has spent his entire professional career
at the Company, pursuing a path that led from the mailroom to Chairman and CEO, while guiding Sterling’s
profitable growth to $2.5 billion in assets. Just a few examples of Mr. Cappelli’s extensive involvement in civic,
charitable and ecumenical organizations include: AmeriCares humanitarian mission to Kosovo; American Association
of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta; Board of Directors, Catholic Youth Organization; and the
humanitarian mission to Honduras with the Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem of
Rhodes and of Malta. Mr. Cappelli recently was awarded an Honorary Doctorate Degree of Humane Letters
from his alma mater, Baruch College.
Roger Imperial is presently a Senior Consultant with Arthur J. Gallagher Risk Management Services, Inc.
He previously served as Vice Chairman of Acordia, Inc. and Senior Vice President of Wells Fargo Insurance Services of New York, Inc. He
also held executive positions with the major brokerage firms of Marsh & McLennan, Willis, and AON.
Frances Florentino Imperial worked as a counselor for developmentally disabled youths early in her career for an 8 year period
and later became a Vice President at Wells Fargo Insurance Brokerage Services, Inc. Frances and Roger Imperial give selflessly of
their time and efforts to look after those who are disadvantaged.
Father Robert Michael Dunn entered the St. John Neumann Residence and graduated from Fordham University in 1988. He was
ordained by Cardinal O’Connor and received his MA from St. Joseph’s Seminary, Dunwoodie in 1992. In July 2007, Father Dunn began
his present assignment at the Jeanne Jugan Residence—a “place of grace,” as he calls it--where the Little Sisters of the Poor live out the
Christian vocation to holiness to which God has called them. Father Dunn embodies the courage and compassion that Rosalie Cadron-
Jetté brought to her ministry.
