<strong>The</strong> <strong>Year</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

2008<br />

Annual<br />

Report


83014_:Layout 1 11/20/08 2:00 PM Page 5<br />

Dear Friends,<br />

Stephen F. Desloge<br />

We are proud to report on the performance <strong>of</strong> <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> for the fiscal<br />

year ended June 30, 2008. It was truly a year <strong>of</strong> incredible growth, transforming<br />

change and impressive synergy as all Clubhouse operations and services came<br />

together in our handsome new West End Place facility for the first time.<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> enjoyed success by almost any financial yardstick. Not only did<br />

we operate healthily in the black, we did so in spite <strong>of</strong> unanticipated expenses<br />

related to our move. We garnered more corporate support than we have ever<br />

previously enjoyed, both for our “Rebuilding Futures, Restoring Lives” Capital Campaign<br />

and in program grants and event sponsorship. And we established an endowment<br />

fund through the designation <strong>of</strong> proceeds from a benefactor’s generous bequest.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Capital Campaign received a magnificent challenge from the Danforth Foundation that will match dollar<br />

for dollar all gifts or pledges received by December 31, 2008 up to a total <strong>of</strong> $500,000. This will enable us to<br />

reach our $3.7 million dollar goal on the anticipated schedule. We are pr<strong>of</strong>oundly grateful for this endorsement<br />

<strong>of</strong> our work.<br />

We had a much-enhanced public relations pr<strong>of</strong>ile this year, garnering substantial newspaper and TV coverage<br />

<strong>of</strong> our relocation and grand opening, our members and staff, our programs, and the Clubhouse Shop. Our<br />

“Dancing with the St. Louis Stars” special event was an instant success that brought us into contact with many<br />

new friends and promises to be a signature highlight <strong>of</strong> social seasons to come.<br />

Of real impact, more than a thousand non-member visitors came to tour the new clubhouse in the first 90<br />

days we were open. Many <strong>of</strong> those who were most knowledgeable about the mental health field told us they<br />

thought it set a new standard in facilities. Even better, our members love it! Our average daily attendance<br />

continued to grow throughout the year, with younger members finding it particularly appropriate to their needs.<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> became substantially more involved with mental health policy development in fiscal<br />

year 2008. We joined the Missouri Coalition <strong>of</strong> Community Mental Health <strong>Center</strong>s, and have been actively<br />

engaged in the Eastern Region Behavioral Health Initiative and the Missouri Transformation program <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Department <strong>of</strong> Mental Health. We also partnered with the DMH in training other mental health agencies in<br />

Missouri on wellness programming, under grant support from the Missouri Foundation for Health.<br />

As one <strong>of</strong> the International <strong>Center</strong> for Clubhouse Development’s five designated U.S. training bases, we continued<br />

to teach Clubhouse standards and philosophy to colleagues from around the nation and around the world,<br />

including Australia, Canada and Korea. We were also visited by a large delegation <strong>of</strong> social service pr<strong>of</strong>essionals<br />

from Russia. <strong>The</strong>se are significant exchanges for our members and staff.<br />

For all these achievements and distinctions, the real success <strong>of</strong> <strong>Independence</strong><br />

<strong>Center</strong> in this or any year is in transforming the lives <strong>of</strong> our members as they face<br />

the challenges presented by their mental illness. <strong>The</strong> challenge might be in finding a<br />

job or a wholesome, affordable place to live. It might be returning to school or<br />

managing a change <strong>of</strong> medications, or in overcoming the isolation and loneliness<br />

that attend mental illness. Whatever the need, <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> is there<br />

to meet it, and we can only do it because <strong>of</strong> the active concern and generous<br />

support <strong>of</strong> friends like you.<br />

We are deeply grateful for your investments in our members’ lives.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

J. Michael Keller Stephen F. Desloge<br />

What is<br />

<strong>Independence</strong><br />

<strong>Center</strong><br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> is an innovative psychiatric<br />

rehabilitation program serving adults with persistent mental<br />

illnesses in the St. Louis community. <strong>Independence</strong><br />

<strong>Center</strong> was founded in 1981 by a group <strong>of</strong> parents and<br />

concerned friends <strong>of</strong> people with mental illnesses who<br />

wanted to create a place where their loved ones could<br />

go to find jobs, build friendships and find assistance with<br />

education and living on their own. <strong>Independence</strong><br />

<strong>Center</strong> practices the “clubhouse model” <strong>of</strong> psychiatric<br />

rehabilitation, which operates according to a philosophy<br />

containing four basic tenets:<br />

Everyone needs to feel connected to a community,<br />

thus the notion <strong>of</strong> membership is essential<br />

Everyone needs to know that s/he is expected<br />

someplace on a daily basis<br />

Everyone needs to feel needed; that one’s presence is<br />

important to others<br />

Everyone needs to believe that s/he is truly wanted<br />

People who come to the <strong>Center</strong> are members, not<br />

patients or clients.<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> consists <strong>of</strong> four programs: West<br />

End Place Clubhouse, Community Care, Residential and<br />

Midwest Psychiatry.<br />

FIRST<br />

group <strong>of</strong> colleagues to visit West End Place from another country<br />

Richard, Aleshia, and Morag from Stepping<br />

Stone Clubhouse in Coor Paroo, Queensland<br />

Australia visited <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> for<br />

three weeks to learn more about the<br />

Clubhouse model as part <strong>of</strong> <strong>Independence</strong><br />

<strong>Center</strong>'s colleague training program. This was<br />

the first group <strong>of</strong> colleagues from another<br />

country to visit <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong>'s new<br />

Clubhouse, West End Place. In addition to the<br />

group from Australia, West End Place hosted<br />

groups from Our House in San Antonio as<br />

well as three week training for clubhouses in<br />

Missouri, North Carolina, Michigan, Oklahoma,<br />

and Canada. Additionally, the Colleague Training<br />

Coordinator for West End Place and two members<br />

active in the program completed training for<br />

the International <strong>Center</strong> for Clubhouse<br />

Development (ICCD) faculty. Pictured with<br />

the three Australian colleagues are members<br />

and staff from <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong>.<br />

FIRST<br />

Gala Event<br />

In November 2008 <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> hosted<br />

its first and largest Gala Event, Dancing with<br />

the St. Louis Stars. Pictured is Debra Bass,<br />

Fashion Editor <strong>of</strong> the St. Louis Post Dispatch<br />

and her pr<strong>of</strong>essional dancer partner Alex<br />

Borodko who competed against 7 other couples<br />

and were crowned dance champions. <strong>The</strong> event<br />

was such a success on so many levels that<br />

the second event is scheduled for Feb. 21, 2009<br />

at the Four Seasons Hotel in St. Louis.

Individual<br />

Programs<br />

West End Place Clubhouse<br />

In 2007, <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> combined its two<br />

clubhouses into one new 50,000 square foot facility<br />

named West End Place, located at 4245 Forest Park<br />

Avenue in the Central West End neighborhood <strong>of</strong> St.<br />

Louis. Its contemporary design, increased space and<br />

infusion <strong>of</strong> the latest technologies <strong>of</strong>fers members<br />

more opportunities than ever before. Members and<br />

staff work together to keep the clubhouse running,<br />

including working in the kitchen, dining room and snack<br />

bar, the onsite resale shop, full service print center, the<br />

member deposit account banking area, a full service<br />

floral shop and the clubhouse’s video lab.<br />

In addition to working in the Clubhouse, members get<br />

connected to a variety <strong>of</strong> programs and services<br />

<strong>of</strong>fered through the clubhouse, including the following:<br />

Education<br />

This includes instruction, assistance in buying educational<br />

materials, help with financial aid and ordering transcripts,<br />

opportunities to serve as tutors, and assistance with<br />

college enrollment.<br />

Employment<br />

One <strong>of</strong> <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong>’s core beliefs is that<br />

employment plays a central role in anyone’s life and<br />

helps form an adult’s sense <strong>of</strong> identity and self worth.<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> members build financial<br />

independence and connect to the community by going<br />

back to work. Adults with mental illnesses face enormous<br />

obstacles in finding and keeping jobs. Sporadic work<br />

histories due to hospitalization and illness as well as<br />

the stigma associated with living with a mental illness<br />

make it difficult to find and keep a job. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Center</strong> assists<br />

members in going back to work via our transitional<br />

and independent employment programs.<br />

Transitional Employment (TE):<br />

Transitional employment provides on-the-job training<br />

and support, to help members learn work skills and meet<br />

the employer's expectations. <strong>The</strong> positions are shortterm,<br />

and provide members with the experience and<br />

confidence to transition into independent employment.<br />

Independent Employment (IE):<br />

Unlike transitional employment, independent employment<br />

placements are competitive and permanent. Each<br />

placement meets the skills and experience on the<br />

individual member and it also provides a supportive<br />

environment and <strong>of</strong>fers fair wages that will not negatively<br />

affect his or her benefits. <strong>The</strong> intensity <strong>of</strong> supports is<br />

dependent upon the needs <strong>of</strong> the member.<br />

FIRST<br />

FIRST experience as a new member <strong>of</strong> the Clubhouse.<br />

Twenty-year-old Christina is working her very<br />

first job ever at the Bryan Cave Law Firm via<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> center's transitional employment<br />

program. One <strong>of</strong> <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong>'s<br />

strengths in 2008 was the increase in the<br />

number <strong>of</strong> newly diagnosed young adults (18-25)<br />

attending West End Place Clubhouse. In 2007,<br />

only 24 attended, in 2008 that more than<br />

doubled to 58. Mental illness typically first<br />

presents itself between the ages <strong>of</strong> 16 and 25.<br />

FIRST<br />

Dave moves from transitional employment to an I E position<br />

Dave Parker started working a transitional<br />

employment position in the housekeeping<br />

department at Washington University School<br />

<strong>of</strong> Medicine. He did such a great job that he<br />

was asked to move to an independent employment<br />

position. In 2008, many members just like<br />

Dave were able to work successfully with as<br />

high as 274 members working in either<br />

independent or transitional employment. 69% <strong>of</strong><br />

members who started a job this past year<br />

were able to work at least 90 days, a 10%<br />

increase over the previous year.

Individual<br />

Programs<br />

continued<br />

Wellness <strong>Center</strong><br />

People with mental illnesses are at greater risk for<br />

coronary artery disease and diabetes; therefore<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> created the first on-site wellness<br />

program specifically designed for people with mental<br />

illnesses. <strong>The</strong> wellness center provides health and fitness<br />

screenings, weight loss programs, nutrition education,<br />

smoking cessation classes, biking and walking clubs,<br />

weight training, fitness classes, and much more.<br />

Housing Supports<br />

Housing supports were conceived in response to the<br />

crucial need for decent and affordable housing for<br />

members <strong>of</strong> <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong>. Housing supports<br />

include referrals to community apartments or<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> housing, and providing needed<br />

support to help members live independently in<br />

the community.<br />

Individual Support<br />

Individual support services provide one-on-one<br />

help to members who need the extra help to live in<br />

the community.<br />

Community Care<br />

Community Care is a Barnes-Jewish Hospital partial<br />

hospital program that is staffed by <strong>Independence</strong><br />

<strong>Center</strong> for on-going rehabilitation services. Community<br />

Care served a total <strong>of</strong> 80 participants in 2008.<br />

Community Care averaged 14 referrals per month - a<br />

slight increase over the previous year. 65% <strong>of</strong> people<br />

who attended Community Care graduated from the<br />

program, while 88% maintained a lesser level <strong>of</strong> care.<br />

FIRST<br />

<strong>The</strong> Wellness Program - Many Firsts!<br />

In 2008, 416 members attended the wellness<br />

program, a dramatic increase over the 322<br />

served last year. <strong>The</strong> wellness program enjoyed<br />

many firsts this year, including members and<br />

staff losing weight for the first time in years,<br />

members who quit smoking for the first time<br />

ever or for many years, and staff that presented<br />

at various conferences for the first time.<br />

FIRST<br />

First time employed independently<br />

Van Ingram is celebrating his FIRST independent<br />

employment (IE) position since 1989. In 2008<br />

165 IC members either maintained or started an<br />

IE, a 25% increase over last year. <strong>The</strong>re were<br />

41 starts in 2008, an increase from the previous<br />

year. Van enjoys his job as a custodian at<br />

Washington University School <strong>of</strong> Medicine. “I<br />

like that it’s 80 hours every 2 weeks and<br />

I have good benefits.”

Individual<br />

Programs<br />

continued<br />

Residential<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> believes that everyone has a<br />

right to live in a decent, safe and affordable home. Our<br />

housing program includes: four center-owned apartment<br />

buildings with HUD rental subsidies and private onebedroom<br />

efficiency apartments; assistance with locating<br />

apartments throughout the community via a network<br />

<strong>of</strong> landlords supportive <strong>of</strong> the needs <strong>of</strong> our members,<br />

help with general living skills and daily tasks such as<br />

grocery shopping and cleaning and regular apartment<br />

visits by <strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong> staff. Staff also assist<br />

members in managing doctor’s appointments and<br />

medications if needed. One <strong>of</strong> the residential program’s<br />

strengths is that it encourages residents to meet their<br />

personal goals towards independence. In 2008, 93%<br />

participated in a structured activity, 20% were able to<br />

work and 88% <strong>of</strong> residents were involved in wellness<br />

activities.<br />

Midwest Psychiatry<br />

Established in 1989, Midwest Psychiatry was created to<br />

meet the special needs <strong>of</strong> individuals with severe and<br />

persistent mental illnesses. <strong>The</strong> physicians and staff<br />

have made a commitment to provide the highest quality<br />

care using an integrated team approach. <strong>The</strong> clinical<br />

team consists <strong>of</strong> experienced board certified psychiatrists,<br />

nurse practitioners, and social workers. In 2008, 547<br />

people received psychiatric services through Midwest<br />

Psychiatry, up 8% from the previous year. A total <strong>of</strong><br />

81.6% <strong>of</strong> participants kept their appointments at<br />

Midwest Psychiatry. <strong>The</strong>re are many myths that still<br />

surround mental illness, including the misconception<br />

that mental illness is related to mental retardation.<br />

Mental illness is an illness <strong>of</strong> the brain, just like<br />

Leukemia is a biological disease <strong>of</strong> the blood.<br />

Schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression are<br />

biological chemical diseases <strong>of</strong> the brain that can be<br />

treated with proper medication and psychiatric<br />

support. Between 70 and 90 percent <strong>of</strong> individuals<br />

with mental illnesses have significant reduction <strong>of</strong><br />

symptoms and improved quality <strong>of</strong> life with a combination<br />

<strong>of</strong> medication and psychosocial treatment.<br />

FIRST<br />

FIRST time living independently in many years!<br />

Justin Idleburg is living independently at<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong>’s apartments in Maplewood<br />

for the first time in many years. Justin loves the<br />

freedom <strong>of</strong> living on his own, "Living on my own<br />

has helped me remain a responsible adult and it<br />

helps break the stigma that adults with mental<br />

illness can't live alone."<br />

FIRST<br />

FIRST partnership with Barnes and TALX<br />

<strong>Independence</strong> <strong>Center</strong>'s Employment Program<br />

couldn't thrive without the support <strong>of</strong> the 14<br />

different employers supplying 48 individual<br />

positions to our members so they can go back<br />

to work. This year we started new partnerships<br />

with TALX Corporation and Barnes - Jewish Hospital.<br />

Pictured is Dorothea Ellis who loves working<br />

in housekeeping at Barnes-Jewish Hospital.
