Hope in the New Normal
Mission Our mission is to assist each person entrusted to our care to enjoy the highest quality health care possible and to work with others to build healthy communities.
Vision We will be a clinically integrated health care delivery system that is the health provider of choice in Phoenix and recognized nationally for quality, service and community programs.
Values People At the heart of all we do is respect for people. We seek to create a respectful and collaborative environment in which patients, visitors, co-workers, clients, clinicians and volunteers are all valued.
Quality, Safety and Efficiency We measure ourselves against the highest benchmarks of quality and safety while maintaining and continuously improving our efficiency, effectiveness and our capacity to heal and to help.
Community Benefit We anticipate community needs and find new ways to meet them. We do this through increasing community access to health services, and by providing service programs that foster sustainability.
Financial Stewardship Wise financial stewardship honors the resources that are the result of the hard work of our team members and the trust of donors. It provides a foundation for sustaining our mission and thriving in the future.
Growth and Regional Collaboration Positive, well-managed growth and collaboration to integrate care allows us to impact and positively influence more lives.

A letter from the
Executive Director In 2012, Desert Mission served almost 10,000 more unduplicated clients than we served in 2010. That’s 39,805 people in 2012 alone, and these dramatic jumps in numbers speak to the many difficulties people still face as our economy struggles to regain its footing. Many are now navigating a new path back to self-sufficiency. These daily challenges are the “new normal” for many people who never before knew about – or had to use – the services of the Desert Mission. Here’s one story to illustrate that anyone can be in need of a hand up to get back on his or her feet. Desert Mission recently was visited by a professional golfer who lives in the Phoenix metro area. The golfer and his local corporate sponsor had come to visit our Food Bank to see firsthand how we assist clients and to donate funds to support Desert Mission. While he was visiting, one of the shoppers in our 4th Street Market at the Food Bank introduced himself to the golfer. “I used to be one of your neighbors,” he said to the golfer. “I lost my job and my home this past year, and now I’m a client here at the Food Bank.” Cindy Hallman Executive Director, Desert Mission Vice President, John C. Lincoln Health Network
This client had been a successful business person, living in an affluent neighborhood. Historically, the majority of Desert Mission clients have been the uninsured or the working poor. Today, many of our new clients are people who have lost their jobs and homes in the past few years. The integrated services of our programs work together to serve hundreds of people on a daily basis. “One Door Opens All Doors” at Desert Mission. Each day continues to be a challenge to meet the needs of our clients, but I applaud our dedicated staff, which has again risen to that challenge in 2012 while maintaining 2010 and 2011 spending levels. I’m always grateful for not only our staff, but also our many caring donors and volunteers who provide the needed support to help us serve our clients. As you read through our annual report, you’ll see that the numbers served by Desert Mission this past year speak for themselves. Please continue to support us in helping those in need find hope in the “new normal.” At Desert Mission, our goal remains to assist each person entrusted to our care to enjoy the highest quality health care possible and to work with others to build healthy communities. With gratitude,
Cindy Hallman Executive Director, Desert Mission Vice President, John C. Lincoln Heath Network

One Mother’s Story
I
grew up here in Phoenix. Thirteen years ago I got married, and we were lucky enough to have two children. My husband had a good job, and, being an older mom, I scaled back on my work to stay home with my kids. I had an active life, volunteered and even attended fundraising events. Two years ago, my husband decided that he didn’t want to be married anymore. My husband went to work in the morning and didn’t come back. He still has not come back. I was left with no money, no insurance, no child support and two children ages 5 and 9 with no dad. I was in shock, embarrassed, and not able to understand or function. I did not know where to turn and my parents, who are wonderful, are in their 80s. One of my friends suggested that I go to DES, (Department of Economic Security), and see what help I was eligible for. I walked into a crowded office with people who were down on their luck, and I walked out. I spent the next few weeks distraught and overwhelmed, and one morning my 5-year-old daughter said to me, “Mommy, when are you going to stop crying and get out of bed?” The next day I called DES, and they gave me a list of phone numbers to call for help. One of the numbers was for Desert Mission’s Marley House. When I called Marley House, Debbie Davis, clinical director, listened. Debbie sensed my desperation and made me an appointment right away.
JCL.com/DesertMission
This is hard for me to admit, but when I walked into Marley House that day, I was suicidal. I had so much fear running through my mind. How was I going to raise two small children alone, with no money and no skills? But Marley House saved my life. I also had some medical issues, and Debbie referred me to the Community Health Center for services. I was also put in touch with Alicia, the community referral coordinator at the Food Bank. She helped me enroll in DES in a dignified manner, and I was eligible for food stamps to help me get back on my feet. I started my home business again and am exploring other job training programs. It is not easy being 52 years old with two young children and limited job skills. My kids also needed some help. They had counseling sessions at Marley House and are now back on the right track. I am especially proud that my son is currently a straight A student. Two years ago, I could not imagine that this would be my life. Desert Mission is a safe place for me. Here, I have always been treated with dignity and respect, and I can honestly say that I don’t know what I would have done without their help.

Desert Mission Overview Community service is the cornerstone of the John C. Lincoln Health Network. The Network began in 1927 as Desert Mission, addressing the health and social needs of struggling families in North Phoenix. Today, we continue the legacy of caring for our community through Desert Mission in addition to our two hospitals and multiple primary care physician and specialty physician practices. Families need more than a box of emergency food in tight times. Through an integrated approach, the Food Bank, Community Health Center, Children’s Dental Clinic, Marley House Behavioral Health Clinic, Adult Day Health Care, Lincoln Learning Center and Neighborhood Renewal work together to meet the needs of the whole family. In 2012, the Network completed a community health assessment for the area, a report required by the federal government once every three years. The report also includes recommendations on meeting those needs. Through Desert Mission, we serve our community by addressing its top needs that include stable housing, affordable and accessible health care, behavioral health, dental health and family caregiver education. When a family comes into Desert Mission, seeking help with any of our services, our referral and eligibility coordinators complete a comprehensive screening to identify the right combination of our services and other public benefits and human services programs available in the community. With an integrated approach, we use our resources and the community’s resources in the smartest way, and we make the biggest difference in our families’ lives.

Food Bank With the help of our generous donors and volunteers, the Food Bank nourishes our community with emergency food and low-cost food. A grant supports an on-site food demonstration chef to help families learn nutritious and tasty ways to prepare the food from their food boxes and from SNAP (Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program) benefits. We help our families stretch their budgets at the Food Bank. With its bulk buying power, the Food Bank can provide three meals for just $1. Families who receive help from the Food Bank and other Desert Mission programs can participate in the Holiday Adopt a Family program to receive holiday meals and gifts.

Community Health Center The Community Health Center continues to meet the needs of the uninsured and underinsured in our community. Fees for clients are based on a sliding scale that factors in both degree of need and ability to pay. The health center contracts with AHCCCS (state Medicaid program) and receives donations from private individuals, groups and corporations that sustain our ability to provide a medical home for low-cost screenings, wellness exams and chronic disease management. We also work with low-income families to enroll them in AHCCCS when eligible.

Marley House Behavioral Health Clinic Children’s Dental Clinic The clinic’s dentists and staff work alongside volunteer dentists and hygienists to provide routine dental care and specialty treatment to children who would otherwise go without dental care. Services are provided on a low-cost, sliding-fee scale for individuals ages 4 to 20. The dental clinic also accepts AHCCCS (state Medicaid program). In addition, staff members educate students and provide screenings at local schools, with referrals as necessary.
Many low-income families and individuals in crisis often have nowhere to turn. Our licensed behavioral health clinic offers counseling and intervention services, prevention outreach to schools, parent education, information and referral. Fees are on a sliding scale, and Marley House has a Magellan contract for AHCCCS-eligible patients. A $5,000 grant from the John C.
