Our Impact
While we do regularly track certain aspects of our work in the community, many of the outcomes we produce are intangible and difficult to measure and track, such as friendships created as a result of hosting Women's Group gatherings, or increased self-esteem resulting from being more connected to the community through volunteering or increased knowledge of community resources.
Below is a summary of our measurable impacts in fiscal year 2008-2009 (July 1 to June 30). For more complete Annual Reports and Fact Sheets, CLICK on the links provided.

Snapshot of our IMPACT in the community
We operated for the last seven months of FY2008-09 with just one staff person, our three childcare supervisors, and our wonderful volunteers. As a result, our client numbers dropped by 37% from the previous year when we had four staff and our childcare providers.
