MESSAGE FROM THE CEO Dear Friends, What a year it has been. We have witnessed up close the many challenges our community has faced. We have been there with you — holding your grief and listening with understanding and compassion. Our expert team has worked tirelessly to help individuals and families grow stronger through the mental health challenges that accompanied the COVID-19 pandemic, standing toe-to-toe with this crisis. In collaboration with our community partners, we responded in ways that inspired connection and resilience. FY21 was a time of change at For All Seasons as we worked to expand and modify our services to meet the most pressing needs. Here’s a glimpse of highlights from our year: For All Seasons changed the conversation — We took mental health from a whispered conversation to a community-wide discussion. You saw us on the radio, on television, in the newspaper, and in community presentations. We placed banners downtown, stickers on to-go boxes, and billboards across the Eastern Shore. Our innovative outreach efforts and educational programming shared the message in our homes, businesses, and schools that mental health affects us all and that it’s OK to ask for help. Increased capacity for trauma services — More people than ever came to us in crisis. In response, we more than doubled the number of weekly urgent care appointments. In addition, our team of over 60 trauma-certified therapists, psychiatric team members, victim advocates, and case managers coordinated ongoing expert care for victims of trauma and crime across the Eastern Shore. Enhanced access to care — Within five days of the state of emergency, our entire team had the ability to provide telehealth services to ensure seamless care for our clients through in-person or virtual services. We also launched on-demand interpretive services, enabling clients to receive care in any language. These advancements have minimized the barriers of transportation, language, and child care for individuals and families receiving mental health services, especially those in rural communities. Growing partnerships — As the community’s needs shifted, so did our approach. The agency reimagined community partnerships in response to the new demands of COVID-19. We collaborated with more partners than ever, including law enforcement, social service agencies, public schools, nonprofit organizations, for-profit businesses, and colleges. As the only Behavioral Health and Rape Crisis Center serving the Mid-Shore population of nearly 200,000 people, when we say that we are your community behavioral health and Rape Crisis Center — we mean that very literally. Our team is here for you, and we continue to be committed to serving everyone, regardless of one’s ability to pay. More than ever, we are grateful to our circle of friends who continue to stand with us as we make mental health and wellness a priority and improve the quality of life on the Eastern Shore every day. My deepest appreciation,
Beth Anne Langrell President/CEO

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF FOR ALL SEASONS For All Seasons never sleeps. The agency is open 24 hours a day,
seven days a week. There is no typical day at the agency, but the following provides a glimpse into the work of our team.
12:00 am A local woman calls For All Seasons’ 24-hour hotline after being sexually assaulted by her boyfriend. She is overwhelmed with panic and fear. The crisis hotline team member listens with care, quickly assesses the individual’s safety, and encourages the individual to go to the hospital emergency room. She is greeted by a For All Seasons Victim Advocate. The advocate remains close by during the victim’s medical examination by a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner, evidence gathering, and questioning by law enforcement. The advocate also ensures the client has a safe place to go and follows up the next morning to provide ongoing support.
4:30 am A 50-year-old adult female is struggling with depression. She is isolated from her family and feels hopeless. She calls For All Seasons’ hotline. The crisis hotline team member talks to the client, reassures her and schedules her for a sameday crisis appointment—one of 19 urgent care appointments the agency provides each week. The client takes a deep breath, knowing that support is here for her, and in a few hours a professional will be helping her to manage these feelings.
4
8:00 am An adult male is experiencing increased depressive symptoms working through issues related to his recent divorce. He attends a morning therapy appointment at our main Easton location, one of seven offices on the Mid-Shore, to learn strategies that help him manage his symptoms and begin to rebuild a happy and productive life.
10:00 am A teenager is having acute anxiety and panic attacks, causing her to repeatedly miss school and time with friends. She is receiving neurofeedback therapy at our Denton office to reduce her symptoms. In addition to this ongoing therapy, she has also been referred to one of For All Seasons’ psychiatrists for a medication assessment. Her anxiety is lessening with each appointment, and her time back in school has increased.
11:15 am A child in a local elementary school is hiding under his desk. The child is experiencing trauma at home, impacting his ability to learn. A school administrator helps the child walk down the hall for school-based therapy with a For All Seasons’ therapist in a warm and welcoming office. The therapist takes the child through a series of Theraplay activities to help him feel safe, grounded, and able to return to the classroom. Later that evening, the therapist reaches out to the family to set up a family therapy session and discuss how the agency’s financial assistance program can make support affordable.
1:50 pm A business leader is distraught and calls our office. He has just learned that an employee has committed suicide. He knows that he and his team need professional support. For All Seasons’ staff pulls together a clinical team trained in crisis intervention to meet with the employees that afternoon. Trauma-certified support is provided for everyone, and one particularly distressed individual is referred to counseling at a For All Seasons’ office.
3:30 pm Adolescent girls participate in jewelry making and stone painting at For All Seasons’ office. The Latino Support Group meeting facilitates conversation and sharing about the girls’ struggles. Today’s activity, led by the Director of Latino Outreach and Education, Ivy Garcia, helps the girls bond in their support group, while they talk about healthy relationships and self-esteem.
4:15 pm A child with autism is struggling with behavioral issues, and his parents are exhausted and overwhelmed. A Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner provides telepsychiatry in the convenience of the patient’s home. The practitioner notices that the child opens up more in the virtual appointment rather than in-person, and significant progress is made.
5:00 pm A grieving family, including a mother and three children, are working through the loss of a husband/father in a tragic work-related accident. One of For All Seasons’ trauma-certified therapists at our Stevensville office assists the family members through a family therapy session. In addition to meeting as a family, individual appointments are made so that each family member can openly share their personal grief privately with a therapist. The combination of group and individual appointments enables the family to begin the healing process.
7:00 pm A group of new foster parents are gathered in Kent County to learn about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). On this night, For All Seasons’ Chief Clinical Officer, Lesa Lee, and master ACEs trainer CEO Beth Anne Langrell, help participants learn how trauma impacts young peoples’ lives and vital tips for supporting foster children. The Center for Learning provides training on a variety of topics across the Eastern Shore region to community members, professionals, educators, and administrators on important, timely mental health and wellness topics.
It’s evening now.
Our crisis hotline has rolled to the afterhours responder and another day in the life at For All Seasons begins. 5

COVID BROUGHT CREATIVITY Did you know that simple acts of silliness and fun can boost your mental health? When so many people in the community were feeling down, For All Seasons came up with a way to spread a little joy through the Confetti Challenge. The agency delivered biodegradable confetti to businesses, schools, organizations, sports teams, families, and individuals inviting them to record themselves “spreading joy” while throwing confetti over their heads. The result was a wave of laughter and smiles that brought a renewed sense of happiness to the Eastern Shore and across 10 states! The photo above shows members of the For All Seasons team participating in the challenge and on the right, Brian Byrnes of the YMCA Caroline County blowing confetti at the camera.
With families and individuals facing increasing mental health challenges due to the pandemic, Chief Executive Officer Beth Anne Langrell and Chief Clinical Officer Lesa Lee provided live stream presentations free to the community through APG Media. Their first presentation addressed children’s mental health during uncertain and changing times. Their second presentation addressed suicide, depression, and anxiety — what this may look like in adults and children, what to say to someone who is struggling, and how to find help and hope.
Above left: During the agency’s No Matter What… You Matter suicide prevention month, and throughout the pandemic, we invited the community to be a light for someone in need. Through our ASK. LISTEN. SHARE. campaign, community members were inspired to reach out to each other, asking if someone is OK, listening without judgment, and sharing resources. Connecting partners from across the community and creatively increasing awareness for suicide prevention, the agency debuted the music video, “Be a Light.” The photo above captures Dave Hall of Talbot County Emergency Services singing during the video. Above right: During Human Trafficking Month, the agency engaged law enforcement, State’s Attorney’s Offices, citizens, staff, and friends in the Red Sand Project. People across the region sent the agency photos of themselves pouring red sand into the cracks of a sidewalk, demonstrating that human trafficking survivors often fall between the cracks in plain sight and showing their support for survivors. Above, the Easton Police Department participates in the Red Sand Project.

STORIES OF SURVIVAL AND HEALING
FROM THE RAPE CRISIS CENTER
Kristy Mirando, Director of Victim Services, works with survivors throughout the region.
Over the last two years, For All Seasons has seen more victims of child sexual abuse and trauma, sexual assault and human trafficking, neglect, and online exploitation than ever before in the agency’s 35-year history. The agency participates in multidisciplinary teams that collaborate and support victims of these crimes. For All Seasons’ Rape Crisis Center team works with partners from across the Eastern Shore, including Children’s Advocacy Centers, the Department of Social Services, the State’s Attorney’s Offices, the Sheriff’s Departments, and certified Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners. Day and night, For All Seasons’ Victim Advocates are often the first line of care after someone experiences trauma — meeting victims at the hospital, advocating for those in crisis during court and police accompaniments, and providing resources to help them move forward with their lives.
H E R E A R E T W O F Y 2 1 STO R I E S O F T H E T Y P E O F S U P P O RT O U R V I C T I M A D V O C AT E S P RO V I D E :
Lauren, a 16-year-old teenage girl, was
acting out of character and her father grew concerned. Wondering what might be troubling her, he examined her cell phone for clues. After looking through her Facebook and Snapchat accounts, as well as reviewing her location history, he learned that Lauren had become a victim of human trafficking and online sexual exploitation. He discovered that Lauren had been lured into posting sexually explicit photos and videos on social media, which led to in-person meetings, and travel across state lines with predators who threatened her life and raped her. Lauren feared for her life and did not know how to respond. Together, Lauren and her father reached out to law enforcement, who began investigating and prosecuting Lauren’s assailants. For All Seasons’ Victim Advocates were referred to Lauren and her family, who offered support and guidance through the healing process. The advocate connected the family to a For All Seasons’ Therapist and one of our case managers who coordinated additional community supports. To prevent other crimes like this from happening, For All Seasons developed and implemented educational campaigns to help young people and their caregivers navigate online safety and awareness of human trafficking.
Madison, a 12-year-old female adolescent,
was in a health class when she reported to her teacher that her stepfather had been sexually assaulting her since she was five years old. The teacher reported the girl’s story to the guidance counselor who called local law enforcement and the Department of Social Services. The girl’s mother was called so arrangements could be made to remove the stepfather from the house so that her daughter would be safe and until the criminal investigation was complete. Madison’s trauma was compounded by an eating disorder as she tried to regain control of her life. Her older brother found the courage to speak up and disclose to his mother that he, too, had been sexually abused and had been selfmedicating with drugs and alcohol. Both children and their mother received victim advocate support and counseling services through For All Seasons while their case was being managed by law enforcement, Social Services, and the State’s Attorney’s Office. Throughout the year, the family continued to meet with their For All Seasons therapist who used a variety of approaches to help them learn about trauma and how to heal. She taught them grounding strategies to help them feel safe and secure.
“In the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, it became clear that Maryland’s children were increasingly vulnerable to sexual exploitation online. MCASA and For All Seasons partnered to develop the Protect While They Connect Campaign to cultivate resources and raise awareness of online child exploitation across the state. Thanks to this campaign, all rape crisis centers in Maryland have access to this timely information allowing all of us to work together to keep our children safe.” Lisae C. Jordan, Esq. - Executive Director & Counsel, Maryland Coalition Against Sexual Assault, Sexual Assault Legal Institute

REACHING ACROSS THE REGION
For over 35 years, For All Seasons has served as the backbone for mental health and victim services in the five Mid-Shore counties. As the agency has grown, For All Seasons has been sought out by clients in a broader geographic area. The adoption of telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic has made it possible for the agency to welcome an increasing number of clients from Upper and Lower Shore counties, as well as from across the Bay Bridge. Six in ten clinical services in FY21 were delivered via telehealth. These maps demonstrate the broad reach of our services and the different ways that we serve our Eastern Shore community and beyond, including therapy for individuals and families, school-based services, and partnerships with local detention centers and institutions of higher education.

To ensure that both English-speaking and Spanish-speaking populations across the region are aware of the many mental health and victim services available to them, For All Seasons ran two commercials throughout the Eastern Shore — one in English and one in Spanish. Right: For All Seasons Interpreting Services Supervisor Alberto Ardaya narrated one of the commercials.
MAKING MENTAL HEALTH A PRIORITY IN BUSINESS
Easton Utilities CEO & President Hugh Grunden Shares His Company’s Story of Support
As one of the Talbot County’s largest employers, Easton Utilities’ President & CEO Hugh Grunden is known across the region as a leader who cares about the wellbeing of his people. “We genuinely assert people are our most valuable resource. We can purchase trucks, generators, and other equipment every day, but the recruitment and retention of really good people is a much more difficult task,” Grunden shares. “As a utility company, we operate in dangerous environments and place a significant focus on physical safety. And, while safety in the field is of primary importance, we also recognize the necessity for our teams’ emotional safety. The two are not mutually exclusive. If someone is overly stressed, having difficulties in their life, or coping day-to-day, their inevitable distraction can lead to accidents on the job.” When Hugh wanted to make sure that his employees and leadership teams were supported, and had tools to manage the stressors of daily learning, he turned to For All Seasons CEO, Beth Anne Langrell. Beth Anne and Chief Clinical Officer Lesa Lee, worked with the staff to host workshops and facilitated group dialogues about stress management, resilience, and emotional intelligence, providing employees with a safe place to explore these topics, while learning tools to use both in and out of the workplace.
Grunden shares, “I can think of very few adults that, at some point in their lives, have not experienced a crushing emotional event. Whether this morphs into a crisis is dependent upon that person’s own situation. I have felt deeply the stress of life and witnessed others being overtaken by life’s emotional demands. I have seen firsthand people unable to regain their footing who ended up taking their own lives.”
“Too many people lack support structures or somewhere to turn during an emotional or mental health crisis. For All Seasons is showing tremendous leadership in establishing avenues through which community members can get the necessary support, which is an incredible asset to our community.” “Supporting For All Seasons is a way to widely distribute the benefits of their services throughout the community. Beth Anne does a great job of articulating the needs of the community and how For All Seasons meets those needs. In the business environment, and particularly with the impact of COVID, embracing an awareness of crisis management and overall mental health are elements of a successful business,” he adds. “Being able to live out our company’s motto every day — To enhance the quality of life in the community — makes my job easier. Supporting mental health services in our community is one way to do that.” In addition to partnering with For All Seasons to strengthen the wellbeing of their team, Easton Utilities has stepped up as a leading corporate sponsor, recognizing the role that businesses can play in supporting mental health services for a strong, resilient community.
