Housing is Healthcare
2011 annual report
2
When first asked of AIDS Ministry founder, the late Brother Felix Bettendorf, C.F.A., why he
pushed so intently to develop a ministry for people with HIV/AIDS, Brother Felix replied,
“Because they need help.”
Driven by the Alexian Brothers’ mission and values, particularly “Dignity of the Person”,
Brother Felix’s simple, direct answer that day 25 years ago was no different than the
responses put forth by the Congregation of Alexian Brothers during the nearly eight
centuries prior.
As the namesake of the newly opened Bettendorf Place on Chicago’s south side, Brother
Felix left a legacy that has been embraced and advanced by the many associates, volunteers,
donors and friends of the Alexian Brothers AIDS Ministry, who come together daily and strive
to provide compassionate, holistic care for the most marginalized in our society, “Because
they need help.”
There have been important medical advances in the fight against HIV since our founding,
resulting in many individuals living longer with HIV/AIDS. We remain committed to ministering to these individuals, adapting our response by expanding our housing services to include
counseling, job training, education, outreach and advocacy for men and women with AIDS
so they may live independent, rewarding and productive lives free of the stigma.
We are blessed by the dedicated and inspired work provided by all those affiliated with the
Alexian Brothers AIDS Ministry.
May God Bless,
Brother Jim Classon, CFA

Dear Friends,
Housing is healthcare. At Alexian Brothers AIDS Ministry, we see this with each new client
who comes through our doors, particularly those with long-term housing instabilities and
poor health.
Imagine being homeless. If that’s not daunting enough, now try to manage a debilitating
illness when you don’t have a place to call home. Each of our clients lives with HIV/AIDS and
all are homeless or unstably housed when they enter our programs. What we can only imagine, our clients live with day in and day out.
Poor health is both a cause and a result of being homeless, according to the National Coalition for the Homeless. Where do you have your
medications shipped if you have no address? How can you remember
to go to the doctor when you have no schedule or calendar? How do you
manage medication side effects when you have no control over the food
you eat? Housing is the answer.
Our focus is stable housing. We know that having a safe place to live is the foundation for
everything else. It is amazing to watch clients flourish within the shelter of Alexian Brothers
AIDS Ministry. They go to the doctor, eat nutritionally balanced meals, stay adherent to
medications, and learn how to care for themselves and their health more than ever before.
That’s also why we opened Bettendorf Place in 2011, to offer additional housing to those
most in need. Bettendorf Place offers 23 rent-subsidized studio apartments for people with
disabilities including HIV/AIDS, who are homeless or unstably housed. Residents began to
move into the facility in December 2011. It is the first site-based harm reduction housing
program for people living with HIV/AIDS in the Chicago metro area.
Bettendorf Place joins our Transitional Living, the Samaritan Housing and the Transitional
to Permanent Housing Programs, offering both temporary and permanent housing to
formerly homeless individuals living with HIV/AIDS. The outcomes of these programs
have been outstanding, with graduates maintaining HIV medical care and avoiding costly
hospitalizations and nursing home care.
As we look at the importance of affordable and effective healthcare, housing must be a
part of that dialogue. It fosters good health, employment and volunteerism while allowing access to a wide range of supportive services. As you will see by the stories in this annual report, stable housing is the first step for many toward improved health outcomes.
It allows clients to become independent and reclaim their lives and their dignity.
Thank you. Support from donors like you helps us to offer housing and the supportive
services that allow our clients to transform their lives. Please know that your gift also
conveys hope and encouragement for a bright and healthy future.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Potts

“I learned how to speak what was inside of me.”
Cherisse M.
Bonaventure House
me,” she reflects.
A Second Chance
“I am so grateful for a chance to start a new
life and make a new journey,” says Cherisse
M. when talking about Bonaventure House.
Bonaventure House offered a number of
programs and support groups that helped
Cherisse learn how to love herself, she says.
She also stabilized her health with medication and regular access to health care.
Looking back, Cherisse pinpoints a bad
relationship as the beginning of her descent
into drug use. It was not the life she wanted
to live. She was addicted, at the mercy of an
abusive boy friend and had damaged her
relationship with her two sons. For some,
these would be insurmountable problems.
But Cherisse, who is a strong, determined
woman, moved in with her sister and put
herself in treatment. It was there she learned
in June 2010 that she was HIV positive. It felt
like the bottom of her world dropped out.
Because she was feeling better, Cherisse
began to volunteer at the Brown Elephant,
a resale shop run by the Howard Brown
Health Center. A conscientious and dedicated volunteer, she was offered paid employment at the store after only a few months.
She specializes in customer service but also
cashiers, prices and sorts donations. “I love
it,” she says of her job. “I really wanted to
work because I knew it would help me get
my life in order.”
Making a Change
“I felt like I needed to
change…like I wasn’t
where I was supposed
to be,” she says about
her courageous decision to get help. It was
during treatment that
she first heard about
Bonaventure House and was intrigued. But
after discussion, her family discouraged it
and Cherisse didn’t have the heart to move
forward, yet.
But when she heard about Bonaventure
House again, this time during an HIV/AIDs
support group meeting, she knew she was
ready. A well-organized planner by nature,
she researched Bonaventure House and was
pleased with what she learned. Mere weeks
later, she had been accepted and was a resident.
At Bonaventure, Cherisse focused single
mindedly on her goal to change her life. “I
learned how to take control of my life and
how to say no to things I don’t agree with,”
she says.“I made peace with things I’ve done
and got forgiveness.” Most importantly, “I
learned how to speak what was inside of
Family, Faith and Independence
After less than a year in the program,
Cherrise applied for permanent housing
and recently moved into a one-bedroom
apartment of her own. “It’s unbelievable. I
still think that when I look down and see the
keys in my hand to my own apartment. It’s
such a blessing,” she says.
She also repaired her relationship with her
two sons, something that fills her with joy.
“They have been very supportive,” she says,
pointing out they were regular visitors at
Bonaventure House for special events. “I am
so grateful they gave me a second chance,”
she says. When her youngest son graduates
from boot camp in the upcoming months,
Cherisse plans to travel to Texas to share this
special moment with him.
She is immensely thankful for the support
and knowledge she now has, believing
that her life has been completely changed
for the better. “The people at Bonaventure
House made this remarkable journey possible. They are my family,” she says with
emotion in her voice. And her family
applauds Cherisse’s journey to a new life.
“I knew I needed to be somewhere
where I could sit still and think about my life”.
Ernest B.
The Harbor
To Learn to Live
Today, Ernest B. is rightfully proud of the life he lives. That
wasn’t always the case. When he compares the man he is
today to the one he was 10 years ago, there is no similarity.
“I was the homeless guy with a long beard and holes in his
clothes, pushing a shopping cart,” he says.
Work has always been a touchstone for Ernest. So
much so that he dropped out of school to work for the
Chicago Housing Authority. The money seemed good to
a young man but looking back, Ernest now says, “That was
a mistake.”
He bought a car, had a son and found that there was more
month than paycheck. To make ends meet, he began selling drugs, realizing later this was another step down the
wrong road. “I was my best customer,” he says wryly.
Homelessness, Addiction
His addiction led to job loss, an HIV diagnosis in 1995 and
eventually homelessness. “Work is important to me. I lost
my ability to work because my addiction took on a life of
its own,” he says. He did things that today cause him pain
to remember. “I took things from my own mother,” he says,
until his sisters called police and had him kicked out of the
house. Homeless, he eventually found his way to rehab,
managing sobriety for a few years.
He married then couldn’t resist the lure of addiction again,
losing his job and relationships with his wife and family in
the process. More stints in rehab followed and his health
took a serious downturn.
Ernest realized he needed to address the reasons behind
his issues and found a counselor who suggested a halfway
house that would support his desire for sobriety. “I took her
advice—I knew I made a mess of my life so I wasn’t taking
my own advice anymore,” he says with a grin.
A Fresh Start
His quest for help led him to The Harbor in Waukegan.
“I interviewed for two hours. I knew they had one bed
available and I wanted so badly to be there.” He felt
if he were far from his old neighborhood on Chicago’s
south side, he could successfully battle his addiction with
8
fewer temptations. “I kept remembering the last time I
was using and how painful that was. I never want to go
back to that,” he says. He was elated to learn a few days
later he’d been accepted into The Harbor’s Transitional
Living Program.
“I knew I needed to be somewhere where I
could sit still and
Home. Take one daily for a
think about my
healthy life.
life,” says Ernest.
His
determination to change
transformed him, touching everything he did. In addition to reflecting on his life, he learned to take care of
himself in ways big and small—from addressing his
health to learning how to cook and do laundry. He lent a
hand around The Harbor wherever he could, a testament
to his drive to give something back. He found that the
work supported his personal transformation. “I was so busy
trying to kill myself with drugs that I had to learn how
to live.”
He successfully completed the Transitional Living Program
three years ago and now lives in his own apartment in
Zion. His health has stabilized and he is in his sixth year
of sobriety. He sees his doctor regularly, attends support
groups and AA meetings several times a week. “I learned
that courage and prayers really do work.”
To Help Others
Impressed by his work ethic, the manager at The Harbor
hired Ernest to staff the front desk part-time. Today, he
serves as an unofficial mentor for Harbor residents, offering
support and advice as needed. “I tell residents that I’d give
them the shirt off my back if they’re working to change
themselves” he says with a catch in his voice, “Because
I remember when I had no shirt.”
Ernest’s family has become a welcome source of emotional
support. He now enjoys a warm relationship with his sisters
and is particularly pleased when his mother brags about
him to her friends. “As long as I have my apartment, good
health, friends and family I’m doing OK,” he says. And his
life journey continues in a direction that makes all who
know him proud.

“I learned a lot of life lessons. They’ve made me stronger”.
Jermaine J.
Bettendorf Place
To Dream of Dancing
Sometimes life isn’t easy. Jermaine J. faced a life of challenges. But instead of becoming discouraged, he became even
more determined to overcome.
At 17, Jermaine went to a doctor to have a minor illness
treated. Tests were run and when the results came back, the
doctor told him he was HIV positive. Stunned and disbelieving, he went home in a daze. “For awhile, I cried. Then I
decided to tell my family,” he says.
Embrace the Future
Their reaction was unexpected and upsetting at first. His
aunt observed that he wasn’t going to die today. However,
that single statement reminded him that he had a future.
This realization became a personal touchstone for Jermaine
as he thought about the goals and dreams he wanted to
achieve. It reinforced his determination to overcome this
disease and live his life exactly as he planned.
He graduated from high school and went to college at
Illinois State University. He was on the college’s dance team,
making plans for his future. He decided to major in sports
recreation management and hoped to become a physical
education teacher.
A New Challenge
He had three years of college completed when the unthinkable happened. In 2008, at age 24, Jermaine had a stroke.
Later, doctors would tell him he had a blood clot in his
leg that broke loose and lodged in his brain.
When he woke up, he had trouble moving his arms and
legs. “The week before I was dancing, breezing through
life. Then I had a stroke and couldn’t walk. It was the most
depressing thing—I was used to moving and dancing. ”
For some, this would be the end of the story. But once again,
adversity brought out the best in Jermaine. Within 16 days,
he was up on his feet, struggling to take a few steps. “I had
the will power to walk. I wasn’t going to use a wheelchair,”
he says. “I was used to being independent.” Slowly, with the
help of physical therapy, he taught himself to walk and use
his hands again. “I dreamed of dancing,” he says quietly
when remembering his motivation.
He continued to work on regaining mobility and was
living with his partner when he first heard of Bettendorf
Place. His case manager from the Illinois Department of
Rehab Services suggested Bettendorf would help Jermaine
continue his journey to independence. He was impressed
with the beautiful, new facility when he visited and realized,
“This is where I need to be.”
The Journey
Now a resident at Bettendorf, he continues to rebuild his
health, working out regularly. With the help of Bettendorf
case managers he is also strengthening his mental health,
which has been battered by the stress of the past few years.
He plans to volunteer at the local YMCA and is working on
his resume.
Recently, he enrolled in a four week employment readiness
workshop hosted by Bettendorf Place and sponsored by
Chicago House. He described the sessions as, “impactful,
insightful and encouraging.” He plans to continue to work
on his health issues and has set a goal of returning to
school to finish his degree. He is interested in becoming
a high school coach, encouraging students and sharing
his determination to succeed with them. He describes
Bettendorf Place as a the foundation of support for his
life journey.
“I’ve learned a lot of life lessons,” Jermaine says, looking
back on the past few years. “They’ve made me stronger.”
And when he reaches his goals, he will dance with joy.

“I am humbled and cherish my life now.
I try not to take anything for granted.”
Lakeith C.
The Samaritan Housing Program
Take Nothing for Granted
Lakeith C. was homeless for more than 15 years. He
slept outdoors or in shelters if they felt safe and
had space. Sometimes he could find a vacant house
where he would crash. He always felt like he had to
sleep with one eye open. “It’s a scary thing,” he says.
“It’s easy to treat the homeless poorly.”
When Lakeith reflects on his transition from being
homeless to having a place of his own, he is grateful. “I’ve really changed. I am humbled and cherish
my life now,” he says. “I try not to take anything for
granted.”
At 17, Lakeith left home. A reserved man, he will only
say that he didn’t like the rules at home and felt the
best way to deal with the situation was to leave. He
bounced around at first, staying with friends but
eventually wound up living on the streets.
Hard to be Healthy
It was a hard life, made more difficult when he found
out he was HIV positive at age 22. Being homeless
made it difficult to find reliable health care. He now
realizes he was unaware of resources available to
people in his situation. “When you live on the streets,
it’s hard to be healthy. There’s no sleep, no food… no
place to keep clean,” he points out in a quiet voice.
When he reflects about his years on the street, he
felt like he had no other options. “I didn’t know there
were programs for people like me,” he says.
That began to change when a friend, who was also
homeless, told him about the Samaritan Housing
Program. The friend gave Lakeith a phone number
and after consulting with his partner, they began the
application process. To their great surprise and happiness, they were accepted into the program after
only two months. Finally, Lakeith felt like he found a
home.
A Place to Call Home
“I cried when I heard the news,” he says. “I felt
so blessed.” He and his partner now live in a studio apartment that’s only a 10 minute walk from
Bonaventure House and Lakeith’s case manager
there. They recently signed a lease, which signifies
the beginning of their third year in the apartment.
He recently got a job and his goal is to build up some
savings. Though he has an apartment now and is the
proud owner of four cats, he worries about becoming homeless again, something he’ll never forget. “I
still see people I know who are homeless,” he says.
“It reminds me what it was like.”
Lakeith feels healthier now. “It’s definitely easier
to see a doctor and transportation isn’t a problem
like when I was on the streets,” he says. He tries
not to think about it but wonders where he’d be
without his apartment. “I think maybe I’d be dead,”
he says, then falls silent.
But Lakeith doesn’t like to dwell on the past. Instead,
he focuses on the good things in his life. “I have a safe
place to sleep now.” He has a warm relationship with
his mom as well and is making plans for the future
including re-starting his GED studies. He believes the
key to a long and healthy life is work and education.
And he treasures the place he lives, the support he
has from friends and the knowledge that he now has
a place to call home.

• In 2011, 100 percent of eligible clients have remained
in their homes for at least 12 months and some are
entering 24 months of permanent housing.
Transitional to Permanent Supportive Housing
Program
The Transitional to Permanent Supportive Housing Program
is a partnership with the AIDS Foundation of Chicago to
provide a long-term solution to homelessness. It allows
graduates of the Transitional Living Program to secure
permanent housing and remain connected to Alexian
Brothers AIDS Ministry. Residents pay up to 30 percent of
their income for rent.
• Seventy-seven percent remained housed for 24
months or longer.
• Ninety-three percent have a source of income that
they maintained or increased.
• One-hundred percent of clients established leases in
their own names.
Bettendorf Place
Bettendorf Place, Alexian Brothers AIDS Ministry’s
first permanent housing facility, is also the organization’s first facility to be located on the south side of
Chicago. There are 23 furnished, subsidized studio apartments for low-income individuals living with disabilities
including HIV/AIDS. It was dedicated in August 2011.
• Bettendorf Place staff foster partnerships with local
agencies and Faith Responds to AIDS to help integrate
clients and the organization into the community.
