Compassionate, Comprehensive Services for Children and Families in Need
Family
Matters
Special 2012 Annual Report
JUDSONCENTER.ORG
DEAR FRIENDS,
Founded in 1924, Judson Center has evolved into a premier
non-profit organization serving children and their families
contending with serious issues in their lives. For 89 years, we
have been changing the destiny and restoring childhood for
children who have been abused and neglected, and still others
who struggle with the challenges of developmental disabilities,
severe emotional impairments, and autism spectrum disorder.
Our reputation for excellence and innovation makes us the
go-to-agency even when others have given up. Whether
teaching a parent to create a healthy and stable family, helping
a child with autism to develop, or supporting independence
for a person with disabilities, we deliver solutions for kids and
families facing tough challenges.
Today, many children remain at risk due to neglect related
to poverty. Others are being raised by parents who
themselves were the victims of poor parenting and lack
understanding when it comes to parenting. Other parents
wrestle with a mental illness or a substance abuse challenge
and lack access to treatments that will change their lives and
allow them to be better parents. Judson Center believes
that strong families are essential to restoring hope and
changing the destiny of children at risk. To do that, Judson
Center has developed a wide array of services and works
tirelessly to provide families the support, understanding and
resources they need to live out their hopes and dreams and
raise healthy kids.
Over the years, Judson Center has become a trusted source in
our communities for building strong families and rescuing
children at risk. As a result, Judson Center was given the
opportunity to expand its services to foster and adoptive
families this year through the addition of two new programs,
“Foster Care Navigators” and “Post Adoption Resource
Centers.” As the name suggests, “foster care navigators”
guide prospective and current foster parents through the
sometimes intimidating path to fostering. Adoptive families
quite often face some special challenges. Through our Post
Adoption Resource Centers, families who have adopted
children through the State of Michigan foster care system
can now find support, healing, and solutions to the unique
circumstances these blended families face.
Going forward, Judson Center is firmly committed to building
on our current knowledge and skills so that more families,
whether facing the challenges of poverty, disabilities, autism
or compromised mental health, can find the path to becoming
strong and living out their hopes and dreams to create
brighter futures for themselves.
It is only with your help that Judson Center is able to continue
to build strong families and rescue at risk kids. Thank you
for being champions for Michigan’s children and families.
Warm regards,
Cameron D. Hosner

CHANGING THE FUTURE
   ONE FAMILY AT A TIME
Jason Michaels and his daughter Carly have made a good
start on the path to a better life. They are able to enjoy a
more stable home because of the support they received
from Judson Center’s Visitation Coaching program and Jason’s
commitment to being a good parent.
Carly had been staying with family members while Jason
confronted his drug addiction which stood in the way of
his being the kind of parent that she deserved and that he
wanted to be. Although Jason had never parented before,
he wanted to learn how to be a good parent. With this in
mind, he committed himself to his sobriety.
When it was time for Carly to rejoin her father, a Judson
Center social worker was there to ensure an easy transition.
She helped Jason set appropriate goals which included
to obtain and maintain employment, establish a suitable
home, and learn parenting skills. Then she helped him work
toward these objectives. Jason was especially eager to
develop an understanding of his daughter’s developmental
needs and how he could best parent her. He was able to
complete the program early. Initially it was expected that
he would receive support for four months. He achieved his
goals in only two.
Jason was always open to guidance prompts and modeling
from his social worker as she observed his interactions with
his daughter. He always had lots of questions as he worked
to be the best parent he could be. He learned to help Carly
with the difficult feelings she had due to their ten-month
separation. He also learned about age-appropriate physical
and emotional development; some of this made additionally
challenging by Carly’s physical disability. He eventually was
able to put structure in their life with family rules and
routines around school, homework and hygiene.
While Jason worked on his parenting skills he was also busy
attending to his sobriety. In addition to going to Narcotics
Anonymous meetings three times a week, he was inspired to
start a substance abuse group which he leads weekly. He is
proud to be able to take a leadership role in helping others.
All this hard work is paying off. Although she always looked up
to her father, Carly’s bond with him is stronger than before. As
a result, Jason has greater confidence as a father and can
see the positive results of his accomplishments. He told his
social worker, “Today I finally feel like Carly and I are going
to be just fine.”
Names changed to respect the family’s privacy.

2012 PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
• In response to the increasing need for more
treatment options for individuals with co-occurring
mental health and substance abuse disorders,
Judson Center therapists are receiving additional
education. The Flinn Foundation has made it
possible for Judson Center
to train our therapists in
Motivational Interviewing
(MI) which is recognized as
a best practice treatment.
MI is a collaborative
conversation to strengthen
a person’s own motivation
for and commitment
to change.
• In an effort to expand
the number of foster
families, the Foster Care
Navigators Program has been established. The goal
of the program is to support the recruiting,
retaining and encouragement of great people to
become wonderful foster parents. Help is available
from pre-application information through licensing
to smooth any obstacles that may arise.
• Judson Center has opened two Post Adoption
Resource Centers serving 23 Michigan counties.
The centers address the needs of families who have
adopted a child from the child welfare system.
Understanding that there are issues, including loss
and trauma, that are unique to these adopted children
and their families guides the work of the PARC staff.
Families receive support tailored to their specific needs.

• Families with children on the autism spectrum
now have better access to life-changing therapies.
The state of Michigan passed legislation that
incentivizes health insurance companies to cover
evidence-based treatment for those with an autism
diagnosis. Judson Center’s certified therapists are
ready to do more of what they do best.
• Lt. Governor Brian Calley and his wife, Julie were
honored with Judson Center’s 2012 Great Ambassador
award for their work in autism awareness and their
contribution to the passage of the above legislation.
• Berkley Public Schools entered into a partnership
with Judson Center for the Transitions to Adulthood
Program. This post-secondary school program is
designed to prepare students with autism for
independent living and develop job skills.
JUDSON CENTER APPRECIATES EVERY DONOR
AND EVERY WAY THEY CONTRIBUTE. SPACE DOES
NOT ALLOW US TO LIST EVERY NAME. WE ARE
BLESSED BY THE SHARING OF TIME, TALENTS AND
RESOURCES OF ALL OUR FRIENDS. YOU SHARE
THE CREDIT FOR ALL WE DO.
