Cherishing Our Children - The Villages

~ Cherishing Our Children ~
2007 Annual Report

~ Cherishing Our Children ~
Dear Friend of Children,
The Villages’ opportunities to “Cherish Our Children” have truly been endless throughout 2007! The
organization’s highly skilled and dedicated Board of Directors, staff, foster and adoptive families,
volunteers, donors and community partners have vigorously sought to “champion every child’s right to
a safe, permanent, and nurturing home!”
The word CHERISH embodies the commitment to treasure, adore, value, respect, glorify, appreciate and
hold dear the children in our homes, our lives, our neighborhoods, our communities and our nation!
That’s exactly what every valued, integral partner has helped The Villages achieve. Their support
provided the foundation for The Villages to serve more than 5,520 different children and families
— each with a unique need — in 2007. That’s equal to 184 classrooms of children; 84 large, full
school buses; and a “hand-to-hand” chain of cherished individuals that would stretch for more than
three miles!
In addition, there were other exciting benchmarks that made 2007 an extraordinary year...

The Power of Two
The Villages and Prevent Child Abuse Indiana worked diligently in 2007 to develop a shared
relationship designed to enrich each organization’s mission and to continue to strengthen each entity’s
position as leaders, educators, advocates and caregivers for children in need. The two organizations
share a rich history of collaboration, similar missions and a commitment to caring for Hoosier children
and families. Together, the pair boast 15 years of leadership with the dynamic Healthy Families
Indiana program, embrace primary prevention as a priority, have credibility statewide and nationally
as “voices for children” and have a strong history with Prevent Child Abuse America and Healthy
Families America.
“These are both groups with good reputations and credibility, and they should complement each other
well,” said James W. Payne, Director of the Indiana Department of Child Services.
Angels in Adoption
U.S. Senator Richard G. Lugar selected The Villages as a 2007 Angels in Adoption Award recipient for
our commitment to Hoosier children and our advocacy work in foster care and adoption services. The
Villages was among the “unsung heroes” chosen from all 50 states and the District of Columbia — all
of whom attended the Angels in Adoption Washington, D.C. awards ceremony and gala in in October.
There, The Villages was recognized for its leadership, commitment and passion for children.
“The Villages is one of the top child and family service agencies in the country, and its work on behalf
of foster and adopted children makes a significant difference in many lives,” said Senator Lugar.
While everyone at The Villages was honored by the recognition, we all agree that the true angels are
the children themselves — the ones who rise above the challenges in their lives to succeed in life.
They are the inspiration for the work we are so blessed to do each day.
Accreditation
In our current outcomes-oriented environment, organizations are increasingly called upon to
demonstrate the impact of their services. The Council on Accreditation of Services for Families and
Children (COA) views accreditation as a catalyst for change that builds on an organization’s strengths.
In 2007, COA accredited or was in the process of accrediting more than 1,800 private and public
organizations that serve more than 7 million individuals and families. Proudly, The Villages continues
to be among the one (1) percent of child and family service agencies nationally accredited by
the Council on Accreditation of Services for Families and Children.
Wendy’s Wonderful Kids
The Villages was awarded a Wendy’s Wonderful Kids grant in its Northeast Region to more effectively
recruit and train adoptive families for whom finding a “forever family” is especially difficult. The
grant from the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption allowed The Villages the opportunity to hire a
Wendy’s Wonderful Kids recruiter, who focuses all of her time on finding permanent, loving families for
Fort Wayne-area children in foster care.
Each and every day of 2007 has been directed by The Villages’ passionate belief that a healthy,
nurtured child is our country’s most precious resource. Whether you are a Board Member, staff
member, foster parent, adoptive parent, donor, volunteer or a community partner, you are providing
healing, hope and happiness through The Villages’ “labor of love.” There is NO better way to Cherish
the Children!
Our deepest thanks

~ The Cherished Work of The Villages ~
The Villages’ Programs
Adoption
Adoption offers a child a chance at a new beginning — providing that child with hope, love and
a forever family. The Villages offers private, international and special needs adoptions. We provide
preparation, education, placement and support throughout the adoption journey. Last year, over 100
children were successfully matched with their forever family.
Therapeutic Foster Care
In 2007, 797 foster children were removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect and placed
in a nurturing and loving home through The Villages. More than 360 foster families have received
specialized training to help them provide a safe haven for children to receive care.
Kinship Care
The Villages’ Family Connection Network, supporting grandparents and kinship caregivers, empowers
families to achieve a stable, positive family experience that will best allow children to reach their
full potential. In the past year, 60 family members provided love, care and protection to 142 children
through The Villages’ Kinship Care program.
Healthy Families
More than 2,810 families voluntarily participated in Healthy Families in the past year. They received
quality care and services from The Villages to help expectant and new parents strengthen parent-child
relationships in their child’s early years. Healthy Families strives to achieve positive parenting.
Family Services and Community Partners
In 2007, The Villages touched the lives of more than 350 children and families through counseling,
education, mentoring and support services. Together, with loving families who have dedicated
themselves to making life changes, The Villages is strengthening individuals, families and communities.
Transitional Living
Crossing the bridge to adulthood is an intimidating path for young people. Through its Transitional
Living and Pathway programs, The Villages helped 75 youth with the greatest opportunities to
become independent, productive members in our society. These young adults received life skills
training in a community-based living environment, which will help them in a successful transition to
self-sufficient living.
Children’s Village Child Development and Education Centers
Children are our most precious possession — and society’s most precious resource. It is for that reason
that The Villages continues to provide quality, accredited child care and early childhood development
services through our Children’s Village locations in Indianapolis and Bloomington. Four hundred fortyeight
children, from six-weeks-old to kindergarten age, received emotional, intellectual and physical
growth through The Villages during 2007.
Prevent Child Abuse Indiana
Prevent Child Abuse Indiana (PCAI) works diligently to reduce family stress, improve family
functioning and increase knowledge about parenting and self-protection in order to reduce the risk of
child abuse. In 2007, PCAI distributed awareness materials, provided training and offered education
about child abuse prevention to 3,000 adults and 2,000 youth in 92 Indiana counties.

“The Villages knows and understands the importance of
family. Not only have they provided us with a wonderful
family, they make us feel like a part of their family. They
are the extended family that we need in order to provide
the right care, love and support to our foster children.”
— Janie Purchase, Foster Parent

~ Cherishing Children and Families ~
Each year, The Villages touches the lives of more than 1,300 children and families. Everyone is
committed to our mission of strengthening all families and embracing the dignity and diversity of
every child, youth and family served. It is a true blessing to be able to share some of the success
stories of the children who have entered our lives and made a lasting impression in our hearts.
Cherishing Resilience
At the age of 15, Roy entered the home of The Villages’ therapeutic foster parents, Janie and Wendell
Purchase. Abused, timid, insecure and prone to violence, he didn’t see what the Purchase’s saw in
him. He didn’t see a brighter future or the way to a better life. But Janie and Wendell did. They
believed in his future and cherished the creativity and brilliance of their young foster child. Together,
they encouraged Roy to apply for the Nina Mason Pulliam scholarship — a scholarship he was
awarded, affording him the opportunity to attend college. At 19, Roy is in his second year at IUPUI,
living on campus, studying law and volunteering with the campus ministry program. Roy is one of
many Villages’ foster youth who have overcome adversity to achieve great success and demonstrate
tenacious resilience!
Cherishing Unconditional Love
For one foster mom, providing love to medically fragile children is her passion. Especially humble,
she wants to remain anonymous, but she enthusiastically shares the story of the unconditional
love that motivates her to make a difference through foster care. As an infant, her foster daughter
was diagnosed with Dandy-Walker Syndrome — cysts on her brain. She knew when she brought her
daughter home, there would be challenges. It didn’t matter. She knew she would love the child despite
her condition. Although the young child suffers from a loss of vision, significant developmental delays,
hearing loss and the inability to talk, she understands the unconditional love she receives from her
foster mom. After caring for her for two years, she has adopted this special child! The precious child
has been given the gift of a forever family.
Cherishing the Family Connection
Gina Fears is an extraordinary woman who has accepted the challenge of raising her four grandchildren.
With an incarcerated mother and an absent father, the children suffer from separation anxiety,
abandonment and severe anger issues. For Gina, family is everything. She never questioned what
needed to be done to provide a loving and safe home for her grandchildren. She may have questioned
how she would be able to do it, but that answer came through the services of The Villages. Through
the Family Connection Network, Gina has found the supportive services and resources she needs to help
her grandchildren succeed.
The Villages’ Mission Statement
The Villages champions every child’s right to a safe, permanent and nurturing home. We are committed
to strengthening all families and embracing the dignity and diversity of every child, youth and
family served.

~ Cherishing the Mission of ~
Mission
As a Division of The Villages, Prevent Child Abuse Indiana serves as a catalyst for preventing child
abuse in all its forms and thereby enhancing the quality of life for children and families in Indiana.
Joining Forces
Much of 2007 was spent on developing a shared relationship with The Villages, designed to strengthen
and sustain the critical mission of Prevent Child Abuse. In March, Prevent Child Abuse Indiana
joined The Villages as a separate division, while retaining its name, mission and role as a chapter
of Prevent Child Abuse America. Together with The Villages, PCAI has continued to seek strategic
partnerships and collaborations providing the Kids’ First Trust Fund Board and the Indiana Department
of Child Services with the best “return on investment” of contract dollars. Additionally, the merger
strengthened the visibility of PCAI through The Villages’ strong relationship with Healthy Families
America and Prevent Child Abuse America.
Creating Urgency
Child welfare concerns in Indiana escalated to a state of crisis in 2007. The growing number of
heartbreaking child abuse and neglect stories that made headlines illustrated an urgent need for
parental support and intervention for at-risk families. Prevent Child Abuse Indiana championed a
“think-tank” of solution-minded community leaders to work together on a new initiative called “Kids
Can’t Wait,” designed to start a dialogue and community conversation to engage a broad number of
vital stakeholders in this critical issue.
Championing Children
Prevent Child Abuse Indiana continues to support its mission of preventing child abuse and
enhancing the quality of life for children and families in Indiana in several ways:
•
•
•
•
Education: Prevent Child Abuse Indiana works diligently to educate and empower parents and
the general public by offering prevention education programs for a variety of audiences. Through
educational conferences, workshops, presentations and special events, PCAI is sharing the
important message that child abuse is preventable.
Advocacy: Prevent Child Abuse Indiana continues to be a leading statewide voice advocating for
laws, policies and programs that prevent child abuse. In 2007, PCAI advocated throughout the
state by speaking to community officials, state-level elected officials and federal policy-makers,
ensuring that children in Indiana have a voice and that their needs are being met.
Chartered Councils: Prevent Child Abuse Indiana believes the most effective approach to
reducing child abuse and neglect is to maintain a statewide network of volunteers to work on
behalf of child abuse prevention in communities throughout Indiana. In 2007, Chartered Councils
ensured that there is a unified and continuous voice advocating for child abuse prevention
services and programs throughout Indiana.
Public Awareness: Prevent Child Abuse Indiana continues to serve as the primary information
resource on child abuse prevention for public officials, professionals, the media and the general
public. April’s Child Abuse Prevention Month, “Cherish the Children,” provided an opportunity to
raise awareness about child abuse and neglect and encouraged individuals and communities to
support Hoosier children and families.

“The information and resources Prevent Child Abuse Indiana provides
families and service providers across the state is critical in helping
to educate Hoosiers about preventing child abuse. The more we know
about how to PREVENT children from being abused or harmed, the
more effective we can be as a state in cherishing our most precious
resource… our children.”

committee and a patent attorney at Roche Diagnostics.
