Our Mission
“Helping young people and families

home, school and community.”
2013 ANNUAL REPORT
424 W. Madison Street
Ottawa, IL 61350
Youth Service Bureau
of Illinois Valley
Greetings,
Change is inevitable, but many things remain the same. Both
phrases speak true about YSB this past year.
Effective July 1, 2013, I proudly have the honor of being the
Executive Director, and I am very appreciative of the support
of the Board, staff and friends of YSB during my transition.
The former Executive Director held the position for over 30
years. During his tenure, a solid foundation for the agency was firmly built on programs and
services delivered to families and children in numerous communities. Currently, YSB provides
services in over 20 counties in Illinois.
Change is occurring and especially over the last six months, focus has centered on accountability in
meeting program goals, expenditures that utilize YSB dollars in the most cost-effective manner,
and raising awareness of the YSB mission to the old and new communities. Other changes have
focused on the re-establishment of the Hope House program in LaSalle County with the
partnership of the 708 Board. The YSB redeploy program, originally only offered in LaSalle County,
was recently expanded to Grundy and Bureau counties. A new monitoring system has been
implemented to oversee the effectiveness of the foster care/intact family programs to insure that
statewide goals are being met. A new marketing initiative featuring The Kids’ Place, the YSB Child
Development Center, in LaSalle, is called a “Hidden Treasure.” An additional System Of Care (SOC)
therapist in the counseling program, serving at-risk foster children has been hired. A new YSB
organizational chart and employee evaluation system are being created for implementation in
March.
What remains the same? YSBs long-standing commitment to its mission; serving children and
families in their home, school and community has not wavered. The strength of YSB continues to
be found in its staff, which remains committed and dedicated to children and families. I see this
over and over again in the comments made by the clients YSB serves and the varied situations
arising on a daily basis. A parent who completed the Parenting classes said at the graduation
ceremony, “I had to make a promise to myself that I was going to finish this time. Believe it or not, I
have never finished anything in my life. I’ve started a lot of stuff, but I never followed through.”
Consider the 17 year-old who was homeless. A YSB Street Outreach worker helped her find a place
to live, assisted her to apply and receive Social Security benefits, and guided her to set new goals,
e.g., earn her CNA degree at IVCC. A biological father, who was incarcerated and never knew he
had a daughter, made the following comment after one of the counseling staff arranged a meeting
between him and his daughter. “I want to thank everybody who made this possible. It was an
event that changed my life completely. I will forever be grateful. You know from the bottom of my
heart I do appreciate everything that you have done for me and my daughter. Without you, our
visit would have never been possible.” These stories occur each and every day and our staff works
diligently to assist, empower, and heal YSB clients.
Finally, a crucial part of YSB that remains strong and unwavering are the volunteers, supporters,
and donors that provide valuable time, talent, and funding. Your support of YSB and its programs
continue to be vital to the agency and its success. A quote I am fond of, “Never doubt that a small
group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever
has.”
Sincerely,
Ellen Anderson

How the Blue Ribbon Began
Child Abuse Awareness Month first began in 1983, but the blue ribbon symbolizing child
abuse awareness did not appear until 1989. Bonnie Finney wanted to remember her
grandchildren and all children who have suffered from abuse. Bonnie Finney inspired the
blue ribbon child abuse campaign. In remembrance of her grandson, Bonnie tied a blue
ribbon to her van antenna. When Bonnie was asked why she chose the color blue, she
said “I never intend to forget the battered, bruised bodies of my grandchildren. Bruises
are black and then eventually blue. Therefore, blue serves as a constant reminder to me
to fight for our children.”
