  4. President’sReport In 2012 Pace provided: therapy to 346 individuals, family support and youth work to 236 children and 179 parents, coordinated crisis intervention, critical response services and support services following traumatic events to 429 individuals, group support to 79 individuals, and training to 2916 students and community caregivers.  Every year as I compile these numbers I am amazed at the number of people supported through our services. There is an apparent trend in the cases we see today. The cases we see today are more complex and involve more violence. It seems that highly sexualized behavior which would have been considered unusual 10 to 15 years ago is now common and needs to be cautiously and thoroughly assessed based on the child’s access to the internet and other age inappropriate material. While the internet is also an additional forum for offenders to access victims, the number of offenders known to the child through direct relationships is still much greater than that through the internet.  We have accomplished many things in 2012 including accreditation. I need to thank all who participated in this process. Although the process added much stress, I believe it helped firm up the viability and the consistency of our services. The demand for our services continues to remain high as communities in our region respond to the prevalence of sexual abuse. Research is finally confirming our long time awareness that child sexual abuse and trauma needs to be addressed to prevent addiction, suicide, further violence in relationships, and emotional and physical health concerns. Trauma informed practice is the new term for the work we have understood and practiced for 30 years.  Pace’s ability to provide this level of support and therapy is only possible because of fabulous volunteers and staff; community support and the support of funders; the years of experience of frontline staff; and our ability to invite bright new social workers and psychologists to practice with us. I thank everyone involved in our organization for your openness, commitment, and abilities. You have allowed us to grow and provide to our clients more and more services.  Sincerely Jacquie Aitken Kish Executive Director’s Report I would like to thank everyone involved in Pace in 2012. We had a good year thanks to the efforts of staff, volunteers and funders. While funding is always a concern in the not for profit sector, we are relatively stable and thus are able to focus on what we do best; helping people in our region. This past year Pace received an Inspiration Award from the Minister of Human Services. The award was for Leadership in Family Violence Prevention. This was indeed an honor and something for Pace to be proud of. Another highlight of the past year was the opening of the Caribou Center. This project was started earlier and after a lot of hard work by everyone involved it is now up and running and doing fabulous work. We received a letter from the mother of a client and she was wowed by the service her child received from the Caribou Center, so hats off to Jamie and everyone else involved in running the center. It is great to have a resource of this caliber in our region and it will help children for years to come. As we move forward, no matter what happens and no matter what challenges we face, we can be proud that we are making a difference in people’s lives in our community. As always, I am extremely proud as well to be associated with such a great organization and especially the people who make it that way. Let’s have a great 2013. Again, Thank You. Delbert Lubeck

  10. SAFE VISITATION PROGRAMS THE SAFE VISITATION PROGRAM January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 The Safe Visitation Program continues to receive referrals from our community. The majority of our referrals have come from the Justice System (courts). The program scheduled 408 visits. Of these 408 visits the families cancelled a total of 115 visits. Most of the cancellations are noted as work related, and others were due to the children being ill. This year we accommodated 290 visits, some were an hour and a half in length and others were two hours in length. We also had a few that were court ordered to be three hours in length. The total client hours for these visits are 873 hours. MONITORED EXCHANGE PROGRAM The number of monitored exchanges this last year; have increased. We have had 10 families use this program; those families have 9 children between them. This last year from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 we have monitored 171 exchanges. CARING DADS During 2012 we ran our first Caring Dads group. This group is 17 weeks in length; we had 6 men complete the group. Between these fathers they have access to 17 children, from the ages of 15 months to 15 years of age. This fall we also had a new staff member join our Safe Visitation and Monitored Exchange program. Bernice Shadow, Bernice will be covering Friday evening for the monitored Exchange program and Saturday and Sunday in our Safe Visitation program. Regards, Marlene, Safe Visitation Coordinator
