ANNUAL REPORT<br />

<strong>Growing</strong><br />

to meet the<br />

community’s needs


MISSION<br />

The <strong>Child</strong> <strong>Guidance</strong> <strong>Center</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>Connecticut</strong> is a<br />

pr<strong>of</strong>essionally-staffed outpatient mental health center for children<br />

and adolescents who experience psychological, behavioral,<br />

developmental, social or family problems.We are dedicated to<br />

reducing emotional suffering and dysfunctional behavior and<br />

to helping each individual achieve optimal potential.<br />

PHILOSOPHY<br />

Our services are guided by a philosophy that emphasizes<br />

understanding the unique qualities and experience <strong>of</strong> each child<br />

as influenced by the complex interaction <strong>of</strong> personality, emotional<br />

and cognitive development, family situation, and social environment.<br />

We view psychotherapy with children as a dynamic, interactive<br />

assessment and treatment process that examines problems while<br />

building on strengths, and believe our intervention is most effective<br />

when parenting figures are actively involved.<br />

We are committed to making our services accessible to all children<br />

and families in the community who can safely and productively<br />

participate in outpatient mental health treatment, while <strong>of</strong>fering<br />

referral and advocacy for those who may require a more restrictive<br />

and structured environment.


MESSAGE FROM THE<br />

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR<br />

AND THE PRESIDENT<br />

Dear Friends,<br />

In response to the increasing number <strong>of</strong> children requiring pr<strong>of</strong>essional mental health services and an<br />

intensification in the severity <strong>of</strong> their problems, our Board and staff created a strategic plan that has<br />

fostered growth to better meet these emerging community needs. Over the years, our efforts have had three<br />

major areas <strong>of</strong> focus:<br />

• Access: Increase the number <strong>of</strong> children served<br />

AND shorten the time families with non-emergency<br />

problems must wait before they can begin treatment<br />

by expanding staff and facilities<br />

• High Risk Kids: Avoid life-threatening and<br />

irreversible consequences <strong>of</strong> self harming and<br />

violent behavior by developing intensive specialized<br />

services for youngsters with severe problems<br />

and families with complex needs.<br />

• Prevention: Reduce the number <strong>of</strong> youngsters who<br />

will develop serious problems by initiating prevention<br />

and early intervention strategies in collaboration<br />

with parents and other community agencies.<br />

At the <strong>Child</strong> <strong>Guidance</strong> <strong>Center</strong> (CGC) our Strategic Plan<br />

has guided our growth and we have made significant<br />

progress in each <strong>of</strong> the above areas.At the same time we<br />

have maintained the awareness and flexibility needed to<br />

respond to new challenges facing children and families,<br />

and have strived to implement the most effective and<br />

innovative treatment approaches in our field.<br />

Some highlights <strong>of</strong> capacity-building this year include:<br />

• Anger Management Classes: With an awareness <strong>of</strong><br />

escalating numbers <strong>of</strong> kids and teens with violent and<br />

aggressive behavior, we brought anger management<br />

classes to Stamford Academy, providing youngsters<br />

with specific skills to better handle conflict and reduce<br />

verbal and physical aggression.<br />

• New Group Therapy Program: To help groups <strong>of</strong><br />

children work together to overcome similar problems,<br />

we have conducted theme-oriented groups for youngsters<br />

with particular needs. For example, a social skills<br />

group helped pre-adolescent boys address social<br />

anxiety and isolation, enhancing their ability to make<br />

and keep friends; a group for depressed teenage girls<br />

helped them address poor self-image and lack <strong>of</strong><br />

confidence, enabling them to develop interests and<br />

participate in activities where they experience<br />

satisfaction and achieve success.<br />

• Darien Facility: To better serve families in Darien,<br />

we moved to a larger, handicap-accessible facility<br />

with room to accommodate group therapy, host<br />

large meetings, and <strong>of</strong>fer community education and<br />

prevention programs.<br />

• In-Home Therapy Program: To enhance services<br />

for high risk adolescents, we increased the capacity <strong>of</strong><br />

the In-Home Therapy program by 50%, providing<br />

intensive services for adolescents and families to reduce<br />

delinquent and dangerous behaviors and avoid placement<br />

in residential or juvenile correction facilities.<br />

• “Get Psyched!” To raise awareness about our<br />

services, deliver community education programs led by<br />

CGC pr<strong>of</strong>essionals and increase financial support for<br />

programs, a new volunteer initiative was developed in<br />

Greenwich under the leadership <strong>of</strong> CGC Board<br />

member Debby Jones Lash and community volunteer,<br />

Laurel Forst. A highlight <strong>of</strong> this year’s activities was a<br />

workshop attended by over 50 middle school aged<br />

girls and moms that encouraged open dialogue at this<br />

crucial stage <strong>of</strong> adolescent development. Based on the<br />

success <strong>of</strong> this Greenwich volunteer group, we plan to<br />

engage volunteers in Stamford, Darien and New<br />

Canaan to customize a “Get Psyched!” group for<br />

each community.<br />

• www.childguidancect.org: To keep the community<br />

informed about CGC services, activities, staff, and<br />

job opportunities we redesigned our website. Future<br />

planned expansions <strong>of</strong> the website include educational<br />

materials about child development, parenting and<br />

mental health issues, enabling our website to become<br />

an important community resource for teens, parents,<br />

referral sources, mental health pr<strong>of</strong>essionals and<br />

donors.<br />

We <strong>of</strong>ten say that “growing up isn’t easy for kids or<br />

their parents.” <strong>Growing</strong> to meet the community’s needs<br />

also has its challenges for a non-pr<strong>of</strong>it agency, but with<br />

the support <strong>of</strong> our friends we have been able to make<br />

great strides. Look for some exciting news in the<br />

coming year about our plans and progress towards a<br />

major expansion to better meet the mental health<br />

needs <strong>of</strong> children and families.<br />

We deeply appreciate your continuing support.<br />
