is a publication of JARC, a 501(c)3, nonsectarian organization serving people with developmental 

disabilities and their families. 

JARC’s Mission is: 

✔ to enable people with developmental disabilities to live full, rich lives as 

respected members of the community in the setting of their choice; 

✔ to provide access to a Jewish way of life for those who choose it; 

✔ to provide support services to families who have minor children with any 

disability or adults with developmental disabilities living at home; 

✔ to educate and sensitize the public regarding people with disabilities and 

their value to the community. 

For 40 Years, Helping People with Disabilities Be Included in Our Community — All Through Their Lives

Letter from the President: 

ROB NUSBAUM 

Dear Friends, 

It is hard to believe that my first year as President has passed so quickly, and I am honored to be at the 

helm of JARC as we reach our milestone 40th anniversary. The past twelve months have been filled with 

unprecedented challenges, but I can confidently report that JARC is and will always remain steadfastly 

committed to providing the people we serve with the highest quality of care and service possible. 

In the face of proposed state budgets cuts for services to people with developmental disabilities and in 

response to the decline in fundraising revenue due to the economic downturn, JARC has responded by 

implementing significant cost-saving measures, some with immediate impact and others with an eye 

toward the future. But then JARC has always been known for its resiliency and its ability to defy the odds. 

In the mid-1960's when a group of parents first met to share their concerns about the future of their adult children with 

developmental disabilities, they knew the road ahead would not be easy — funding had to be secured, zoning laws 

changed and community prejudices had to be overcome. But out of the seeds they planted, JARC has today grown to 20 

beautiful homes, an array of supported living arrangements and a children and family services division which provides 

respite care, advocacy, Jewish day school inclusion, age-appropriate social groups for children and teens and adults, 

information and referral services and community education and training. 

JARC's amazing accomplishments are an incredible testament to the quality and strength of its forward-thinking Board, its 

remarkably committed staff and a fantastically generous community. 

I am proud to join you in celebrating JARC's 40th Anniversary. Thanks to all of you for 

keeping the dream alive! 



ROBERT NUSBAUM, JARC President 

Benard L. Maas Foundation Continues its Commitment to JARC 

At the core of the "JARC Heart" philosophy is the assertion that everyone 

deserves the right to be cared for in a warm, loving way and lead a 

meaningful, productive life. JARC is committed to being a passionate, 

constant advocate for those we serve, no matter what stage of their lives or 

how great the level of care and attention needed. 

JARC is honored to announce the establishment of the Benard L. Maas 

Foundation Advocacy Fund to help support the patient advocacy needs of 

the 96 residents with disabilities living in JARC group homes and transition 

homes. Among the services the fund helps make available are: 

■ in-hospital advocacy with medical professionals to ensure the 

people in our care receive excellent medical attention; 

■ emotional support and company to those we serve while they are 

in a hospital or rehabilitation facility; 

(L to R) Nurse Case Manager Phyllis Abrahams and Program 

Coordinator Malinda Gross confer about a JARC resident 

■ assurance that space in their JARC home will be held so they have a familiar place to return to upon their discharge; 

■ specialized medical and nursing services when residents return home; 

■ needed home equipment and modifications such as beds, ramps or lifts 

According to Matthew Engelbert, a Maas Foundation Director, "The directors of the Benard L. Maas Foundation are very proud of our 

longstanding partnership with JARC. Lynn Engelbert (Director) spearheaded this effort as she feels strongly about the importance of 

this project and the essential benefits it will provide." 

With the establishment of this new fund, the Benard L. Maas Foundation affirms its 24-year commitment to JARC which began in 

1985, with the creation of the Benard L. Maas Supported Independence Fund and continues to include the Maas Technology Fund and 

Maas Quality of Life Fund. As JARC's population ages, the newest Maas Fund will be one of the organization's most valuable and vital 

resources.

JARC’s SpringElation Safari 2009 ‘Wildly’ Successful!! 

The evening was sunny and the breezes 

mild as JARC celebrated its 11th annual 

SpringElation and 40th Anniversary at 

the Detroit Zoo. With 1,600 guests of 

all ages, the exclusive event raised over 

$300,000 for the Merle and Shirley 

Harris Children and Family Division. 

Event co-chairs Ron Applebaum and 

Jenny Kaplan, Lindsay and Ryan Dembs 

and Stacey and Marc Wittenberg were 

thrilled with the great turnout and the 

enthusiasm of 65 solicitors who worked 

so hard to secure sponsorships and 

gifts. Stacey Wittenberg adds, "I was 

really happy with SpringElation. Even in 

these tough economic times, the event 

was well-attended — sold out in fact. 

And it was great to see so many families 

enjoying a fun-filled evening at a great 

venue all to help children with disabilities. 

I was proud to be a part of it." 

Volunteer Chair Barbara Jonas recruited 

more than 118 volunteers to help the 

event run smoothly. Extreme Teen Co- 

Chairs Jacob Allen, Sara Aronovitz, Josh 

Ketai and Hayley Sakwa enlisted the 

additional help of 33 teen volunteers. 

Highlights of the evening included a 

musical welcome by the Berkley High 

School Jazz Band, roaming animalcostumed 

volunteers, a safari-themed 

scavenger hunt with fun prizes, upbeat 

music and dancing by StarTrax Event 

Productions, face painting by Faces In The 

Air, dinner by Matt Prentice's Milk and 

Honey and docent-led tram tours. 

A special SpringElation bonus gave 

guests the opportunity to sing "Happy 

40th Birthday" to JARC and blow out the 

candles on a super-sized cake. 

The festivities were beautifully captured 

on film by Michael Jonas Photography, 

volunteer photographer Ron Ostreicher 

as well as by HOUR Detroit Magazine.

Spotlight on 

Volunteers: 

Rose Stocker 

Rose Stocker 

is no stranger 

to office work. 

After 26 years 

as an executive 

secretary and 

ROSE STOCKER 

buyer for 

Marathon Oil Company, she brought 

her considerable talents to JARC. 

"I was looking for places to volunteer 

and to keep me busy," says Rose, "My 

cousins recommended JARC to me 

because they had a daughter in one of 

the group homes." Twelve years later, 

at age 92, Rose's professional skills 

remain razor sharp. 

When she began volunteering at JARC 

in 1997, Rose remembers a time when 

tributes and newsletter articles were 

typed on a "state of the art" electric 

typewriter, and an all-volunteer "mail 

brigade" helped label the newsletter for 

mailing. At that time, there were about 

50 tribute funds, the newsletter was 10 

pages long and 4,000 community 

supporters received each issue. 

Over the years, Rose has been a part of 

JARC's growth and progress. "Now, I do 

all my work on a computer," she 

proudly states. In addition, she 

compiles and edits the tribute listings 

for the newsletter — which currently 

reaches nearly 10,000 homes —and she 

maintains a master list of over 140 

tribute funds. 

She also works on a variety of agency 

mailings and takes tributes requests 

over the phone. 

With all her 

abilities, there is no 

doubt that Rose 

Stocker is one of 

JARC's most valuable assets.


From the JARCives 

Hope Springs from the Ashes and the Dream Goes On 

In 1977, the State of Michigan passed landmark legislation that allowed group homes for six or fewer people to open in any 

neighborhood without special zoning approval. This significant ruling opened the doors to small community-based group homes. 

Spotlight on Staff: Chris Hench 

As JARC celebrates its 40th anniversary, we look back… 

It was an exciting time of expansion for JARC, then known as AJR 

(Association for Jewish Retarded). In 1978, Harvard graduate and Detroit 

native Joyce Keller was hired as Executive Director, and before the decade 

closed, two new homes opened their doors in Oak Park - the Meadowlark 

Haverim Home and the Seymour J. Gilmore Memorial Home. 

The year 1979 marked the beginning of the Aaron and Helen L. DeRoy 

Independent Living Program to help individuals who did not need 24-hour 

supervision to live independently in their own homes and programs. 

The decade of the 80's began with a name change as AJR officially 

(L to R) Friends Rheba Herman, Robbie Feldstein, Toby Silverstein became JARC (Jewish Association for Retarded Citizens) and the 

enjoy Shabbat dinner at the Blumberg Home in 1988 

organization kept on expanding to meet the needs of the people it 

served. The residents of the first group home on Evergreen moved to the Samuel and Jean Frankel Home in Southfield. The Sadie 

and Charles Grosberg Home in Beverly Hills and the Shirley T. Medow Home in Huntington Woods opened in 1982, followed by the 

Beit Channa Home and the Shenkman Family Home, and the Meadowlark Home was rededicated as the Mary and Donald Samuels 

Home. 

Then tragedy struck. Community residents, opposed to a proposed Pleasant Ridge home donated by Louis Blumberg, filed two 

lawsuits. Both failed. And then the unthinkable - the home was torched shortly before its opening. 

From the ashes of the fire, the JARC community pulled together, forging a renewed sense of purpose. Under the watch of 24-hour 

guard service, the Louis C. Blumberg Home was rebuilt and opened four months later. 

Chris Hench, JARC's Chief Operating Officer, has been with the agency since 1988, and oversees all of 

JARC's program services. She has been involved in every aspect of program development, including the 

formation of JARC's Harris Division and growth in residential and enhanced services. 

Having worked in the field of developmental disabilities her entire professional life, Chris received her 

MSW from the University of Michigan School of Social Work and Bachelor of Arts with Distinction from 

the University of Michigan School of Languages, Arts and Sciences. Without hesitation, she proudly states, 

"The best part of my job is getting to spend time with the people we serve, and working with the JARC staff 

— the best staff anywhere ever. They never cease to amaze me." 

In September, 2008, Chris was elected to serve on the Board of the Michigan chapter of the American 

CHRIS HENCH 

Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. It has enabled her to become involved with 

people from various parts of the state and bring back ideas for making JARC even better. 

Most recently, Chris has introduced the principles of Gentle Teaching (GT) into the agency philosophy. With GT, employees are 

trained to use their presence, hands, words and eyes to help the people entrusted to their care feel safe, cared about, loved and 

engaged. There are now several Gentle Teaching mentors on staff and in October, JARC will be bringing in the founder of GT, 

Dr. John McGee, to speak to the agency staff and the staffs of other Jewish agencies. 

Chris adds, "What I love about JARC is that the people here are never satisfied… we always want to make our services better and 

better."

Deloitte Volunteers Impact JARC 


On June 5th, for the third consecutive year, JARC was chosen as a site for Deloitte 

Impact Day, a day of community service for over 700 employees of the local office of 

Deloitte & Touche, a national accounting firm. Starting at 7:30 a.m., a group of 70 

enthusiastic volunteers power-washed, painted and stained decks, backfilled, graded 

and prepared flower beds and did interior and exterior painting at several JARC 

homes and at the Katzman Administration Building. The talent, commitment and 

quality of the work done by the 

Deloitte volunteers was amazing. Even 

more gratifying is that this cadre of 

dedicated workers is already eagerly 

looking forward to 

With a great donation of lovely flowers and planting 

materials from Harry's Garden Center and Great Lakes 

Landscape Design, JARC's annual Flower-A-Thon 

marked the beginning of the summer blooming 

season. On June 14th, scores of dedicated volunteers 

diligently raked the soil, weeded and planted dozens 

of annuals at numerous JARC homes. Says JARC 

Volunteer Coordinator, Alissa Pianin, who organized 

the event, "These wonderful 

volunteers are very committed to 

making sure JARC homes are the 

showplaces of their neighborhoods, 

and we are so grateful for their 

commitment and gifts of friendship."

ELLEN LABES VACATION HOME • GLADWIN, MICHIGAN 

A gift from Laura and Jim Sherman 

The feeling of ‘home’ begins 

with a house …and the 

Since its inception, JARC has made certain that its homes 

were more than "houses" made of wood and brick. It was 

imperative that they be comfortable, welcoming, beautiful 

and safe. 

Over the years, as the population of JARC aged, the changing 

physical needs of the residents made it necessary to re-think 

the physical layout and features of the homes as well. 

In 1986, the Shenkman Family Home opened in West 

Bloomfield, and it was the first JARC home that could 

accommodate residents who were in wheelchairs or have 

other mobility and medical problems. Low-pile carpeting, 

wider hallways and level door thresholds were only a few of 

the modifications required to make the Shenkman Home 

barrier-free and "resident" friendly. 

Although many JARC homes were originally two-story or trilevel 

dwellings, today all but two homes are ranch-style. 

This includes the Ellen Labes Vacation Home located in 

Gladwin, Michigan where most of JARC's residents spend 

their vacation time.

JANICE CHARACH EPSTEIN HOME • WEST BLOOMFIELD 

A gift from Natalie and Manny Charach. Funded in part by 

the Janice Charach Epstein Permanent Operations Fund

caring, loving people who live there. 

JARC's own Maintenance Department, as well as generous Business 

Buddies and professional contractors, have kept busy as many of the 

homes were adding ramps, widening doorways and remodeling 

bathrooms with safety features such as grab bars and roll-in showers. 

This year, JARC will proudly open the Nusbaum Family Home, which 

is not only totally barrier-free, but will be the first known 

environmentally "green" group home built from the ground up. 

The four-bedroom, single-story brick house has bamboo floors 

and blinds, geo-thermal heat, high-efficiency appliances and 

lighting, eco-friendly paint, a deck made of recycled material and 

native landscaping. 

Most of all, the new Nusbaum Home is a reflection of the thoughtful 

foresight and deep commitment to the people JARC serves to ensure 

their well-being and provide the most loving, warm place to call 

home.

(L to R) Jacob Feldman, Martin Steiner, Ruben Domnitch (L to R) Alan Bider and Eileen Cohen 

During the past 40 years JARC 

has deeply touched the lives 

of those who are today its 

senior-most citizens. 

Many of these men and 

women take part in the Rosalie 

and Bruce Rosen RRR Program 

(Recreation, Relaxation and 

Relationships) which meets 

every weekday at the Pitt 

Home. While some of their 

memories have become 

cloudy with age, there is no 

doubt about the impact JARC 

has made in their lives. 

Jayne Wilkinson, a RRR 

Program leader, posed some 

questions to them about their 

personal histories and their 

experiences at JARC, and they 

very enthusiastically shared 

their recollections. 

Those involved in this project 

were: Martin Steiner 

(Feldstein/Katzman Home), 

Ruben Domnitch (Grand 

Home), Alan Bider (Grand 

Home), Eileen Cohen (Medow 

Home) and Jacob Feldman 

(Laker Home). 

Remembering… 


What was your life like before you came to JARC. Where did you live or who did you live with? 

MARTY: It was pretty horrible. I was barefoot with salt on my feet. It was hard — rotten. 

RUBEN: I lived with my parents. I lived in Detroit for a long time. 

ALAN: Institution…it was bad. 

EILEEN: I had to go to court and then went into a foster home, but I couldn't get along with 

the foster parents. Then I went into the Meadowlark Home with six girls. Then I went into 

Downing (Samuels Home). Then into Gilbert, and then to Medow. 

JACOB: I lived with my father, "May he rest in peace." 

Do you remember how you felt when you first came to JARC? Were you excited or afraid? 

JACOB: Maybe I was a little afraid. 

RUBEN: I moved in in 1974. I wasn't really excited at all. All three of my brothers were alive at 

that time. My mother was gone. I had to move out before something happened to my father. 

Who were the first people you remember meeting at JARC? 

MARTY: Bill Miller and the other guys. 

ALAN: John McCaffrey (Director of Community Supports/Frankel Division). 

EILEEN: The managers were all good. I liked Kim. 

RUBEN: Jacob was the first person I met. 

JACOB: Joyce Keller… she's still around. 


What have you been doing since you came to JARC? What kind of work have you done? 

MARTY: I went on trips. I worked at JVS downtown. I enjoy going out to eat. 

RUBEN: I used to work at Goodwill and Crowley Milner's but I couldn't fold stock. At JVS I 

helped with chip clips — wasn't too hard. Now I am retired. 

JACOB: I like to live happy. I used to do chip clips at JVS, too. Then I worked at Ira Kaufman. 

I prayed over the bodies. I was a shomer and said prayers over the bodies. I am retired. 

What do you want to say to wish JARC a happy 40th anniversary? 

MARTY: Wish them Good Luck. 

RUBEN: Hello, Happy 40th Anniversary! It started sometime in the 60's. I think in was 1969. 

ALAN: Happy Anniversary, JARC. 

EILEEN: Many happy returns to JARC. 

JACOB: Happy Anniversary!

Jewish News Celebrates JARC's 40th With $40 Subscription Offer

LICENSEE JCC • STATE OF MICHIGAN RAFFLE #R02922 

A Chance to Win 1 of 4 Fabulous 

Prize Packages! 

In celebration of JARC's 40th anniversary, The Jewish News is offering a special $40 annual rate 

through JARC for new in-state subscriptions, with a portion of the proceeds going to JARC's Slomovitz 

Scholarship Fund. The regular annual rate is $69. 

Philip and Anna Slomovitz were one of JARC's founding families and benefactors of the Beit Channa 

Home. Philip also founded The Jewish News in 1942. Their son, Gabriel, was a resident of JARC's 

Feldstein/Katzman Home. 

“JARC continues to be a national model of care, compassion and advocacy for its clients and their 

www.jarc.org families and has educated and enriched our entire Jewish community in the process,” said Jewish 

News Publisher Arthur Horwitz, a former JARC board member and vice president. “It is fitting that we 

pay tribute to JARC and our founder, Philip Slomovitz, with this special offer and donation.” 

JARC supporters are encouraged to purchase new subscriptions to The Jewish News for themselves, friends, children, grandchildren and 

others. Not only has The Jewish News been selected in four of the past five years as Michigan's best weekly publication in its class, but 

it continues to be the glue that binds our Jewish community into one of the most cohesive and admired in North America. 

Also, during these difficult economic times, new subscriptions to The Jewish News help assure that its future, and those of the many 

local businesses who advertise in it and depend on your patronage, matter to you. 

To subscribe (multiple orders are welcome!), please call (248) 351-5174 and use the code JARC40. Offer is good for new, instate 

subscriptions only and expires October 1, 2009.
