A message from the Board Chair As I write this year’s letter for our Annual Report, the board of directors has just received news of the resignation of our CEO, Dr. Theresa Mayberry. Theresa has led Grace Hill Settlement House with diligence, competence, courage and creativity for the last four years. Under her leadership, the board has been strengthened and empowered to act on behalf of our organization in ways it could never have imagined. Theresa has also assembled a committed and skilled staff commensurate with the size and complexity of our administrative needs. And, she has engineered much needed financial stability. We will miss her greatly, but I know she will continue to be an inspiration for our continuing efforts on behalf of our neighbors. A search committee will be formed as soon as possible and begin its task of appointing a successor. A sense of hopeful excitement about the future will surely impact their work and be readily apparent to all candidates. I hope you also discover that sense of hopeful excitement about the future as you read this Annual Report. What makes Grace Hill unique is our partnerships with businesses, other not for profit organizations, civic groups, governments, faith communities and individuals in order to bring resources for self empowerment into urban neighborhoods too long neglected. And to partner with Grace Hill means that you begin to understand the cause of that neglect in more than simple economic terms. In all the issues affecting the well being of our neighbors, there is also a question of justice. I am certainly both hopeful and excited about the future of Grace Hill. I invite you to partner with us in ever new and creative ways, and to share your own sense of hope and excitement with all of our neighbors. Sincerely, Barnet M.
