Message from the CEO and Board Chair
T
hank you for taking the time to review Cornerstone Montgomery’s Fiscal Year 2014 Gratitude Report, covering the time period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014. This report highlights the achievements and successes that you – our stakeholders – helped make possible.
As you read through this year’s Gratitude Report, you will meet Jared and James, two people we serve. You will see the tremendous impact you have made in their lives. You will meet Matt, Cornerstone Montgomery’s Employer of the Year. You will learn about our Transportation to Work Program. You will see firsthand the difference that one person can make in the lives of so many! You will see the names of our friends and supporters, many of whom have given financially and through volunteering their time. Everyone has their own reason, much like you, for supporting Cornerstone Montgomery’s mission. Do you know how much it means to the people we serve, knowing that individuals like you, who have never met them, believe in them? Do you know how many lives you have changed through your support? You have much to be proud of, and we have much to be thankful for this year. As the largest and most comprehensive provider of behavioral health services in Montgomery County, we have a moral obligation, as stated in our mission to provide each one of our clients with opportunities to integrate fully into the community. In FY14, with your help, we expanded our existing programs, providing opportunities for increased independence and community integration. We were able to identify the need for new services and advocate for improved access to behavioral healthcare for our most vulnerable citizens. This year, we look forward to continue working with you, bringing hope to even more individuals. At Cornerstone Montgomery, we celebrate all victories, big and small. We recognize that hope grows from even the smallest accomplishments. As you read this year’s Gratitude Report, you will get a glimpse into some of these victories, and there are so many more that we have the privilege to be a part of every single day. Alfred Tennyson wrote, “Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering ‘it will be happier’”. As donors, volunteers and advocates, your gifts help bring this vision of hope to life. They are confirmation that you believe in the work that we are doing, and they enable us to plan ways to further expand our mission. Your investment in our mission allows us to respond to the changing needs of our community and continue to expand our services and provide best practices treatment. Thank you for bringing hope to the individuals we serve. Thank you for believing in the power of recovery, and most of all thank you for believing in Cornerstone Montgomery. We are excited about the future and hope that you will continue to celebrate with us. We invite you to schedule a visit when you are in the area and allow us to show you the difference that you make in the lives of the thousands of people we serve every year. Cari Guthrie Cho President/CEO Cornerstone Montgomery

About Cornerstone Montgomery
I
t has been more than two years since St. Luke’s House and Threshold Services merged to become Cornerstone Montgomery. Founded on more than 70 years of history, we empower more than 2,400 individuals in our County each year to live, work and participate in the community. This past year, we continued to provide: outpatient mental health care, Health Homes, residential, supported living, employment services, Life Skills, and crisis intervention. We expanded the number of properties we own or manage from 76 to 81 and we welcomed five new Board members (see page 13 for a full list of our members). Cornerstone Montgomery is proud to have increased our supporter base and to have launched a new volunteer program, while also managing more than 300 partnerships in the community -- from employers to volunteer groups and other nonprofit providers. Our online presence continues to grow, and we welcome you to stay informed of our latest news and undertakings by visiting us online:

Featured Partnership
T
he Montgomery County Coalition for the Homeless (MCCH), a local nonprofit, provides solutions to end homelessness through permanent supportive housing programs, Safe Havens emergency housing programs, and an emergency shelter program that are coupled with supportive services for close to 1,600 men, women, and children each year. MCCH partners with Cornerstone Montgomery for three of their programs. Together we provide clients with the supportive services they need to help them either maintain their housing or achieve independent living. Cornerstone Montgomery provides case management and psychiatric and/or therapy sessions for 25 clients up to six times a month in a MCCH permanent supportive housing program, Home First. In addition, clients in MCCH’s Safe Havens program and Home Builders Care Assessment Center (HBCAC) men’s emergency shelter benefit from access to a mental health professional who provides therapeutic group sessions and meets with clients individually on mental health issues. A client in MCCH’s Adrianne’s Safe Haven program shared that he “blossomed” after receiving mental health counseling through Cornerstone Montgomery. By connecting clients to permanent housing, emergency shelter, and critical supportive services, together we are building a community where everyone has a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home.

Stories of Success
O
n average, a high school graduate in Maryland earns $10,844 more each year than a high school dropout. Roughly 17,700 students in Maryland did not graduate from high school in 2011; the lost lifetime earnings for that class of dropouts alone total $3.1 billion. Cornerstone Montgomery provides vocational services to more than 150 youth in Montgomery County.
“Without this program I don’t know where I would be...probably homeless.”
At 24, Jared is contemplating career choices and aspires to be a Maryland State Trooper. This is a much different path than Jared thought he would have when he was 13 years old, living and attending school at the John L. Gildner Regional Institute for Children & Adolescents (RICA). During his junior year, Jared joined a job training program and was referred to Cornerstone Montgomery’s Career Transition Program (CTP), for additional support services. Working with his job coaches in the CTP program, Jared receives help and support to learn to manage stress and improve his job skills. Jared also learned how to live independently while keeping himself active, and has been living on his own since 2011. Jared manages his finances more effectively and prioritizes for essentials. He is proud that he has been able to successfully live on his own and maintain his cashier position at Shoppers Food Warehouse for more than a year. He appreciates having a job he enjoys and in which he excels. Jared looks forward to accomplishing his goal of obtaining his GED and beginning to work with his staff to apply Maryland’s State Trooper Program. When Jared looks back at his 13 year old self, he knows that “he is a part of me, but he isn’t who I am today”, and knows that his 13-year old self would be amazed at the person he is today.

hen Cornerstone Montgomery provides Psychiatric Rehabilitation services in the community, it costs the state $9,000 per year. It costs the state $40,000 per year to serve a homeless person and it can cost $700 – $900 per day to be in a hospital. Cornerstone Montgomery provides support and skills training to help people manage their symptoms and integrate into the community.
“If people who knew me before, could see me now, they wouldn’t believe it was possible.”

“There were a lot of people with mental health issues – Lincoln, Einstein, Helen Keller, Beethoven - who made great contributions to society. We are not victims, but we need help sometimes. Why not be a part of that? You are investing in something worthwhile.” James is an avid reader and philosopher; he works as an usher at a local family theatre and is a budding advocate. Wanting to combat the misperceptions about individuals with mental illness, he has shared his story on National Public Radio and with the Montgomery County Council. You helped him achieve all of this. When James left his family home and entered the Residential Rehabilitation Program in 2000, he wanted to learn independent living skills. His goal was to have his own apartment. As James reflected on his recovery journey and the obstacles he has overcome, he is reminded of the story of David and Goliath, where young David faces a seemingly undefeatable giant. Armed only with a slingshot and a stone, David defeats the giant and is victorious. As self-described person who “doesn’t ever quit” James worked through the ups and downs of his illness. In 2014 James moved into his own apartment and is living independently for the first time in more than a decade! He attributes his success to having people who believed in him, believing in himself and never giving up.

articipants in Cornerstone Montgomery’s vocational program are employed at a rate of 68% compared to the national average employment rate for individuals with disabilities, which is only 19.5%. In FY14, Cornerstone Montgomery helped 437 adults and 146 transition age youth obtain/maintain employment: earning an estimated total of $3.6 million. Our comprehensive services help individuals who have serious mental health disorders become less dependent on public resources. Matt White, the Human Resources Manager at Fox Hill, a Sunrise Senior Living Community, has always considered putting people back to work as an important aspect of his job. When Supported Employment Specialist Jesslyn Harding approached him about developing a business relationship where he could have a positive impact on the lives of individuals living with a mental health diagnosis, he jumped at the chance to do so. Matt has not only helped his community find great employees, he has also referred Cornerstone Montgomery clients to other Sunrise Senior Living communities. Since 2007, Matt has helped 15 Cornerstone Montgomery clients return to the workforce. With one email to a Supported Employment Specialist Matt knows he will receive 4-5 viable candidates within 24-hours compared to the 3-5 days it takes to find applicants through traditional job postings. His advice for local businesses who are not convinced that this type of partnership is for them? “What do you have to lose? You have a need and they can fill that need…a great employee is a great employee.”
“It’s a joy in service we see in Cornerstone Montgomery clients...they appreciate the opportunity.”

n October, The Rotary Club of North Bethesda, District 7620 of Rotary International, Cornerstone Montgomery and Barwood Inc. formed an innovative partnership to transport disabled individuals to places of employment during hours when and in locations where public transportation systems are unavailable. The program provides disabled individuals in our community the ability to get and keep jobs. It is clear that overcoming this hurdle to employment will provide transition age youth and adults with a means for achieving independence as well as the sheer dignity of having a job and contributing more fully to society. Within the first three months of the program’s inception, eight individuals started new jobs, two individuals expanded transportation options to their current job and 14 attended job interviews and career fairs. Dr. Bruce Fowler, a Rotarian and Volunteer Mentor with Cornerstone Montgomery notes “Cornerstone Montgomery has an exceptional employment program that really works. Reliable transportation is sometimes the only barrier between individuals in their program getting and keeping gainful employment”. Lee Barnes, CEO of Barwood Inc, couldn’t agree more. “We know the good work of Cornerstone Montgomery, so we jumped at the chance to be part of the solution. Our drivers are proud to ensure the safety and well-being of our community’s most vulnerable, shepherding them to greater independence through employment.”
“Someone with a disability, who is coming out of poverty, must normally rely on public transportation.”

ersonal Visions Gallery at The Dennis and Phillip Ratner Museum is an integral part of Cornerstone Montgomery’s model of recovery. Providing person-centered treatment means giving clients opportunities to develop their sense of self. For clients who identify as artists, this translates into providing a safe and nurturing environment to create work. In 2006, Studio In-Sight was established to meet that need. In 2013, The Dennis and Phillip Ratner Museum dedicated the first floor of the museum to the art of Cornerstone Montgomery clients and Personal Visions Gallery was born. Clients not only show their work in the museum, they also hang the shows, work on the publicity and manage the operations of this endeavor. The second floor of the museum is dedicated to the
work of Phillip Ratner, whose art is displayed on Ellis Island, the Smithsonian and other amazing venues. It is quite an accomplishment for Studio In-Sight artists to share museum space with this world renowned artist. The skills that are developed as a result of this partnership are priceless. In January 2015, we celebrated the launch of the new Studio In-Sight website. An advisory board with artists, art lovers and strategists is creating a strategic plan to take Personal Visions to the next level. The artists are growing along with the program and the sky is the limit! The Personal Visions Gallery is open on Sundays from 10am - 4:30pm, and Monday Thursday from 10am - 4pm. Stop in and see the amazing work from our talented artists, and visit us online at www.StudioInsight.org.
Our Programs Rehabilitation
C
ornerstone Montgomery provided individualized rehabilitation services at all levels of care to nearly 1,000 individuals throughout Montgomery County this year. We established new housing opportunities through a grant from the State of Maryland (and supplemental funds from Montgomery County), expanding by 20 beds.
Throughout the past year, some residential sites faced challenges with relocation of several apartments. During this challenging time, programs continued to provide services to clients without interruption. We continue to assess and admit clients to the Health Homes program which supports collaboration between our residential sites and primary care physicians.
We congratulate all of our residential sites for an extremely successful round of inspections this year. All of our sites successfully passed State, County and HUD inspections indicating that they are not only affordable, but healthy and safe!
We have purchased 3 homes for our Permanent Supportive Housing Program and the remaining 7 properties will be purchased in FY15. We have expanded our case management program to include a housing coordinator, providing supports to tenants living in homes managed by Housing Unlimited, Inc. The Day Programs have increased the number of clients served each day and work closely with the participants to adjust the curriculum to meet the interests and needs of each client.

Clinic and Residential Crisis Services
C
ornerstone Montgomery provided comprehensive clinical services to more than 1,000 individuals in Fiscal Year ‘14. We merged four clinics into three by combining the two Silver Spring clinics into one location. We offer more than 25 different clinical groups. 77% of clinic clients self-reported an improvement in their functioning and half are employed or actively seeking employment. In order to continue the impact of our services, we expanded our service delivery to provide on-site clinical and medication services to residents of the Montgomery County Coalition for the Homeless Gude Drive Men’s Emergency shelter located in Rockville, Maryland. These residents struggle with treatment participation and linkage. This partnership continues to support Cornerstone Montgomery’s vision and mission by being bearers of hope and helping individuals gain the resources to achieve
their full potential. The Wayne S. FentonMcAuliffe House is an alternative to hospitalization for clients experiencing a psychiatric crisis. A stay at Fenton House costs the state only one-third of an inpatient hospital visit and research shows this model to be equally as effective. Fenton House served 166 clients with a 97% occupancy rate. Approximately 70% of these individuals were referred from the community while the remaining 30% were referred by hospitals for further psychiatric stabilization, decreasing the length of an inpatient stay. The demand for these services is so high in fact that we will be opening a second house in FY15. This will continue to save the State money on costly inpatient stays while providing more clients with this evidence supported alternative to hospitalization service.
Vocational
C
ornerstone Montgomery provided EvidenceBased Vocational support services to 604 consumers, including 142 youths throughout Montgomery County in 2014. We helped 200 individuals start jobs and had a total of 396 individuals working through the course of the year. Our employment rate of 68% exceeds national average for consumers with mental health disorders by 300%! To meet the growing demand for our service, we continually look for ways to expand our services. We maintain a visible presence in Montgomery County’s business community by participating in six Chambers of Commerce. We partnered with the Bethesda Chevy Chase Rotary Club to host our 5th annual Employer Recognition Breakfast. In addition, more than 275 business professionals are involved in our mission through business mentorships, mock interviews, and work site and job trial hosting. Vocational work with current and prospective employers to identify their staffing needs and ways our skilled and eager job seekers can help meet those needs.
We provide benefits counseling to empower people to earn more money and achieve financial independence by increasing financial literacy education, and supporting goal oriented savings. With funding support from a grant awarded by the North Bethesda Rotary Club, we launched our Transportation to Work program in October. This innovative partnership with Barwood Taxi, provides our job seekers greater access to employment opportunities in locations and at times where public transportation is not available.
