program, participate in one of our<br />

gift to meet a specifi c need (see our<br />

We are vision builders with a passion for the world that we<br />

hope for—one in which each person has the chance to be<br />

acknowledged for their gifts, to be valued and included despite<br />

any difference in ability, and to be productive members of<br />

society. With each class that completes Pre-K and moves on to<br />

Kindergarten and with each adult with disabilities who enters<br />

the work force, we are one step closer to that profound reality.<br />

Madison was diagnosed with cerebral palsy as an infant. Her parents were told that<br />

she would probably never walk or talk. However, as a result of early intervention<br />

strategies she experienced at the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong>, Madison is walking and her<br />

cognitive development is on par with her peers. She is a proud kindergartener at<br />

Fernbank Elementary, a public elementary school in metro Atlanta.<br />

OUR CHILDREN<br />

Regardless of ability level, all children have<br />

unique needs and benefi t from being in a<br />

supportive, challenging, and stimulating<br />

environment with instruction that addresses their<br />

individual needs; that is our commitment to the<br />

families who entrust their children to our care.<br />

We strive to see each child as a unique individual,<br />

to care deeply about them, and to give them what<br />

they need to grow and be successful in life, which<br />

includes being ready for school.<br />

The fundamental aim of our child development<br />

program is to empower children to become<br />

enthusiastic, confi dent, life-long learners, but<br />

our mission doesn’t stop there. We also want our<br />

children to grow up to be caring individuals who<br />

Inclusion Specialist Charlie Jones enjoys a book<br />

who live inclusively, accepting and appreciating<br />

each person for their unique gifts and embracing<br />

every opportunity to learn from one another.<br />

OUR ADULTS<br />

The <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> is not a place for people with disabilities to be hidden,<br />

sheltered, or protected. Instead, it is a place where adults with a variety of<br />

abilities gather together to learn and to fl ourish with the ultimate goal of<br />

full integration into the broader community. Each day is fi lled with education, work<br />

training, and recreation opportunities that allow the adult participants to develop<br />

their life skills, discover and pursue their own interests, and participate in real<br />

world experiences that equip them to be valuable contributors to the community.<br />

With the help of our Employment Specialist and Job Coaches, many of our adult<br />

participants work at local businesses or in jobs around the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> campus.<br />

They are also actively involved in operating several different micro-enterprises and<br />

volunteering with other worthy causes like the Atlanta Hospital Hospitality House,<br />

Project Open Hand, and Meals on Wheels.<br />

Semena enjoys some time on the playground with one of her<br />

young charges, Ella. “I love working with the children at the<br />

<strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong>,” she said. “We have such a good time together.”<br />

GROWING TOGETHER<br />

Around the <strong>Center</strong>, we have a commitment<br />

to live out the inclusive values we promote,<br />

which informs our intentionality in<br />

integrating our two programs. The children and<br />

adults have a variety of opportunities to interact<br />

with each other throughout the day and as a result,<br />

deep bonds develop between them. A palpable<br />

spirit of community and camaraderie emerges, as<br />

well. There’s a shared, quiet understanding that<br />

it takes all of us working together to make the<br />

<strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> the special place that it is.<br />

Semena Redding is a shining example of our<br />

inclusive practices around the <strong>Center</strong>. Semena<br />

came to the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> as part of our supported<br />

employment program and began working in our<br />

Pre-K classes as a Classroom Assistant over six<br />

years ago. She assists the children in the classroom<br />

with whatever they need to be successful. She<br />

is extremely dedicated and constantly seeks to<br />

improve herself. In fact, when the opportunity<br />

presented itself, she took the initiative to get her<br />

Child Development Associate (CDA) credential<br />

and inspired others to do the same. As a result of<br />

her leadership, 80% of all of the adult participants<br />

who work in the Child Development Program<br />

hold the CDA credential.<br />

Katherine Tenner is part of a team of adult participants<br />

who read to the children’s classes on a monthly basis.<br />

Katherine selected one of her own favorite books to<br />

share with her young friends.<br />

OUR VOLUNTEERS<br />

Our volunteers are our heroes. We<br />

could not accomplish our mission<br />

without their contribution of time and<br />

talent. Any day of the week, volunteers can be<br />

found somewhere on our campus helping out –<br />

weeding and planting in the garden, assisting<br />

Grandma Catherine, one of the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong>’s<br />

foster grandparents, works with 4-year-old Julian<br />

to construct a structure with LEGO toys. Grandma<br />

Catherine has been assisting children and teachers at<br />

the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> for more than 12 years.<br />

with technology, building fences and walkways,<br />

rocking babies, playing on the playground, taking<br />

nature walks with the adults – the list is endless.<br />

There’s a place and job for anyone who wants<br />

to help and most will attest, it doesn’t take long<br />

for our volunteers to feel like part of the family.<br />

A common refrain that we hear from our volunteers<br />

is, “The <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> is a place that changes you.”<br />

People often come here thinking they’re going<br />

to give some time to make a difference in the<br />

lives of the adults and children we serve, and<br />

fi nd that they themselves are the ones who are<br />

changed by the experience. One such volunteer<br />

is Jeff Gleason, an IT professional who came to<br />

the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> in July <strong>2011</strong> after experiencing<br />

a job layoff. He ended up volunteering every day<br />

for over a year assisting us with technology needs<br />

around the <strong>Center</strong>.<br />

When I was looking for a volunteer opportunity, I thought of the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> because I have a daughter with Down<br />

syndrome who will need a place to go after she graduates from high school. I hoped I would fi nd a program that<br />

would improve the quality of life for my daughter and others with special needs. What I found was that and much<br />

more. I found a community of care that embraces our uniqueness and leverages our differences to enhance the<br />

lives of everyone in the community. Whatever I have given to the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> has been returned to me ten-fold.<br />

THE GARDENS<br />

The <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> is the privileged steward of 39 acres of beautiful and<br />

important green space in an historic neighborhood of urban Atlanta. Our<br />

grounds include an old grove forest, walking trails, natural streams, and<br />

the beautiful Cator Woolford Gardens. We take our responsibility to care for these<br />

special spaces seriously and work together with numerous partners to ensure that<br />

they can be enjoyed by everyone who enters our gates. The Forest and the Gardens<br />

also serve as teaching tools for the children and adults. They take nature walks<br />

to learn about trees and plants in the forest, grow vegetables and fl owers, study<br />

butterfl ies, raise bees, and learn about how eco-systems work.<br />

For many, their fi rst encounter with the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> is in the Cator Woolford<br />

Gardens. We often hear that people got married in the Gardens or attended a wedding<br />

or special event but had no idea that the event had a connection to and an impact<br />

on the lives of those we serve at the top of the<br />

hill. Revenue generated from every event that is<br />

held in the Cator Woolford Gardens helps us to<br />

maintain the Gardens for everyone’s enjoyment<br />

and supports the inclusive programs for children<br />

and adults at the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong>.<br />

Brennen Dicker fi rst became acquainted with the<br />

<strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> when he and his wife Kelly were married<br />

in the Cator Woolford Gardens. A few years later, they<br />

became one of our families in a new way when their<br />

daughter Alexandra was born and enrolled in our<br />

children’s program. Now their daughter Stella has<br />

joined us, too, and Brennan gives back by serving as a<br />

member of the Board of Directors.<br />

“<br />

Dear Friends and Associates of the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong>,<br />

Something remarkable is happening here at the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> – it is the beginning of a<br />

new chapter in the life of this 63-year-old organization. You can see it in the faces of the<br />

children and the adults whom we serve; you can hear it in the stories of our families, our<br />

staff members, and our volunteers; and you can feel it in the groundswell of support<br />

from the many folks who have been inspired by the possibilities that the future holds for<br />

everyone who gathers at the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong> to learn and fl ourish.<br />

We hope you, too, will be inspired to join us on this journey to a new day where everyone<br />

experiences true inclusion. While there are thousands of great causes that need our help,<br />

for the members of the Board and me, this one is personal. We do this work because of<br />

those we love, because of the kind of community to which we believe every person is<br />

entitled, and because of the kind of world we long for. We are deeply grateful for our<br />

families, our staff, our volunteers, and our supporters, and we invite you to come gather<br />

with us, learn with us, and fl ourish together with us.<br />

Thanks,<br />

Trace Haythorn<br />

Executive Director<br />

This is an exciting time for the <strong>Frazer</strong> <strong>Center</strong>, and a time of change. Our Board refl ects this – we have a blend of<br />

long-standing and new members from across Atlanta that have a variety of experiences and diverse backgrounds,<br />

families, and careers. Each Board member is passionate about our Mission, as we all have an emotional connection<br />

to the <strong>Center</strong>. We are all looking forward to working together in building on the hard work done by past Boards<br />

as we forge a fl ourishing future for the <strong>Center</strong> and our constituents. Ad astra.<br />
