Transitions Annual Report
...is happiness doubled by wonder
Transitions

From Executive Director, Dia Maurer,
Just before Christmas, my husband suffered an accident that spiraled into
a full-blown health crisis. As the challenges grew in size and intensity, we
confronted each from our storehouse of resources: solid health insurance, access
to quality healthcare including specialists and our support system of family and
friends. Although we both missed a lot of work, we maintained our jobs—good
fulfilling jobs that provide much more than wages and benefits. Despite my
husband’s health crisis and because of it, we ended the year feeling so very
grateful for our bounty and for our faith.
Reflecting on the year at Transitions, I can’t help but feel the same
way—so very grateful. While the year had its share of unexpected trials and
challenges, it also confirmed the breadth and depth of our precious support
system—our community of donors. You. It was your support that enabled
Transitions to house the homeless, safeguard and nurture their children, teach
employment skills to the jobless and provide community to the lonely and
isolated. Your support enables us to keep going.
This Annual Report is for you. It’s a record of Transitions’ 2010
accomplishments. We think of them as your accomplishments. You’ll find 2010
financial data and statistics for each of our programs on page 3, a peek into the
stories of some of the women we served last year beginning on page 4, and
recognition for you and all of our generous donors beginning on page 8. As the
needs in our community continue to grow, Transitions will continue meeting
them because of your support. We thank you and bless you for sharing your
bounty with us.
Gratefully,
Transitions

New Leaf Bakery Café: Michelle
Michelle B may have discovered her true calling
while at the New Leaf Bakery job training program.
Although she came to the New Leaf to learn food industry
skills, she finished with new confidence in her talent for
sales and marketing. Like others in their mid-twenties,
Michelle is eager to begin her future. Unlike others,
Michelle’s path has been hampered with obstacles—some
easier to overcome than others.
In her earliest years, Michelle experienced
instability and abuse. She had an undiagnosed condition
known as Fetal Alcohol Effects or FAE. Considered a
“milder” form of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, FAE can be
extremely debilitating since it is often mistaken for a
behavior problem or missed entirely. Those who struggle
with it are often labeled with a “bad attitude” or thought to
be incapable of learning. Luckily, Michelle’s foster
parents, who eventually adopted her, recognized that she
was struggling with a disability and not just stubbornness.
Michelle’s father recalled that even early on, “she had such
excellent drive and skills but there was this barrier to
achievement because of her FAE.”
and learn new skills, the job never developed into anything
more than dishwashing. Determined to find something
more fulfilling for her daughter, Michelle’s mom heard
about the New Leaf from the Division of Vocational
Rehabilitation. “It sounded perfect,” Michelle said,
“exactly what I wanted to do.”
What Michelle found at New Leaf was the type of
individualized hands-on training she needed. She mastered
the skills and gained a new support group among the other
With the love and support of her parents, Michelle women in the program. About Chef-Instructor, Vira
Melendez-Redmon, Michelle says, “She supports you
was able to graduate from a mainstream high school.
Independent and resourceful, she found a job in the kitchen 100%. She’s your number one fan and she gave me more
of an assisted living facility. But instead of letting her grow confidence.” Among Michelle’s favorite moments with
the program was her chance to hand out samples of New
Leaf cookies at Main Market downtown. Those who were
there said she was a natural at engaging customers. “It was
really fun,” she says, “my little marketing moment.”
Michelle is now applying for work at local
bakeries, cooking at home and working the cash register at
her church bookshop. “The program was everything I
needed and wanted it to be…It was a great experience and
I can’t wait to take what I’ve learned to a job,” she said.
New Leaf Bakery Café Transition’s newest program is a social enterprise
that blends education, skill building, work experience and support services to
help low-income women overcome barriers to employment. The curriculum
covers basics from knife use to food presentation and nutrition plus resume
writing, job search and interview skills. Each woman in the program builds
her resume with work in the New Leaf catering operation and experience in
the New Leaf Bakery Café kiosk in the Catholic Charities’ lobby..

and chaos into order
Transitional Living Center (TLC)
& EduCare: Maya, Toby and Kellie
Eight months pregnant, Maya came to TLC
late in 2009 with her three year old son, Toby.
Homeless and penniless, Maya had just left an
abusive relationship—the most recent in a string of
abusive relationships. She had regained custody of
Toby for the third time. Once reunited, she was
determined to raise him and the child she was
carrying without the conflict and chaos she had
endured growing up and without the violence and
abuse she had experienced in most of her adult
relationships.
After her beautiful daughter, Kellie was
born, Maya began to tackle her personal goals,
which were to provide a healthy home for her
children and to find a job that could support her
and her little family. Maya thrived at TLC but
Toby struggled. Not only did he have to learn how
to cope with a new baby sister, he had to learn how
to cope with his mother. Since Toby had been in
and out of foster care since birth, all those
separations had taught him not to trust adults—
especially his mom. He protected himself by acting
out—yelling, swearing, even hitting, which kept
everyone at a safe distance. On Toby’s first day at
EduCare, he swore at the teachers, yelled, and tried
to push other children. He disrupted games and
songs and refused to eat or lie down at nap time.
Transitional Living Center (TLC) is a supportive transitional
housing program for homeless women with children age 12 and
younger. Located on a beautiful four acre campus, TLC has
sixteen one, two and three bedroom apartments where families can
stabilize and develop new skills for up to two years. EduCare is a
licensed daycare program located on the TLC campus that
provides children living at TLC with specialized support to help
them recover from the chaos and trauma of homelessness.
The TLC/EduCare team, including the
Family Support Advocate, teachers, volunteers and
relief staff utilized a totally coordinated approach
with Toby and his mom providing support to help
them really bond for the first time. Slowly Toby’s
behaviors began to improve as he came to believe
that not only his mom but all the new adults in his
life were safe and that they truly valued and cared
for him. He developed the ability to trust and
stopped fearing that his mom would leave him
again. Finally, Toby got to be a child! No more
cursing, yelling or hitting. He began to play
games, sing, share toys and fall asleep with the
other children.
After 10 months at TLC/EduCare, Maya,
Toby and Kellie moved away to their own
apartment. Maya has a job that supports them and
Toby attends a
new preschool.
Last time they
visited TLC, Toby
reported that he
missed his old
friends at
EduCare but had
made good new
friends at his new
school. What a
difference a year
of nurturing and
support had made
in his life!

Miryam’s House: Brittiny
Brittiny’s early life was filled with chaos and pain. Her
dad was abusive; and her mom was so withdrawn she was unable
to meet her children’s needs. When Brittiny was 9, her dad was
murdered. Six months later her mom was diagnosed with cancer.
By junior high, Brittiny had begun using drugs and alcohol. The
boyfriend she chose was cruel and violent. In her senior year,
Brittiny dropped out of school to care for her mom but her drug
and alcohol use accelerated.
When her mom died, Brittiny married her abusive
boyfriend and they moved into her stepdad’s barn. When a close
friend died, Brittiny snapped, blacked out and robbed her stepfather. She and her husband split up, and Brittiny hid from the
police in a friend’s trailer for almost a year. She was deeply
depressed and self destructive, adding dangerous comfort measures for her aching heart—an eating disorder that involved
binging and purging and a self-mutilation habit that involved
cutting herself.
Brittiny’s life continued to be defined by drugs and pain
until she landed at UGM Crisis Shelter. Feeling totally hopeless,
she wrote a farewell letter to her sister. She was ready to end her

life when she got word that
Miryam's House had room for
her.
Brittiny was amazed by
the warmth, comfort, and
tranquility at Miryam’s. Just
receiving a friendly greeting
when she woke up in the
morning was a shock.
Six months later,
Brittiny is hard at work on her
recovery. She has learned that she has a right not to be abused
and continues to process her multiple losses and past trauma.
Brittiny is also working on her GED and plans to go to college.
She has grown into a role of responsibility at Miryam’s while she
continues to explore her own talents. Brittiny loves to write and
has begun working on her life story and writing poetry.
Miryam’s House is a residential program where 10 women
live in community for up to a year as they heal from abuse,
addiction, mental illness and the isolation and chaos of
homelessness. 24/7 support helps the women address the issues
that led to their homelessness and develop goal for the future.
