Thank you for believing in the children of Kids In Distress.

Because of heroes like you, KID provides urgently needed services to more than 10,000 children andfamilies in South Florida every year. To this day we’re still guided by the same principles on which wewere founded in 1976:

You are the You are the SUPERHEROSUPERHEROin their stories. And ours...in their stories. And ours...You are theYou are the SUPERHEROSUPERHEROin their stories. And ours...in their stories. And ours...

Dear Friends,

This Annual Report is dedicated to you.

You, the donor. You, the foster parent. You, the corporate partner. The adoptive family. Public funder. Foundation. Board member. Volunteer. You.

For South Florida’s abused, abandoned and neglected children – for families who are struggling – you are the reason we can help. Right here. Right now.

Partner. Friend. Collaborator. Supporter. You are all of these. And much more...

You are the shining superhero behind every KID story. Our hero, too.

It’s true the economy could be (far) better. True too that as we face still deeper governmentcuts in the months ahead, more children and families need our help – and in moreheartbreaking ways than ever before. In fact, in the coming year, we’re now on track to serveover 10,000 children and families – an increase of nearly 25 percent.

But because of you, the transformative work of Kids In Distress continued uninterruptedthroughout all of 2012 ... from emergency shelter for a girl who’d been locked away for twelve(yes, twelve) years, to a happy forever home for a tiny baby who was born exposed to streetdrugs and facing withdrawal.

Brave kids. Important kids. And each one, like you, with the heart of a hero.

Read their stories on the pages that follow. Learn about the programs that changed their lives.And know this: with you as the wind beneath their wings (or keeping aloft those trusty herocapes!) there is nothing they can’t achieve.

What remarkable work you make possible here at Kids In Distress.

Thank you for being our superhero,

Mark DhoogePresident/CEO, Kids In Distress

Through Kids In Distress, you support the most life-changing, life-affirming work in the world. And if ever you doubt that – even for a moment – read this trio of true stories. Because withoutyou, none would have unfolded the way they did...

Every KID foster family knows fromthe start. The goal is reunification:to bring foster child and birth familyback together if the time is right.And few families know bittersweetgoodbyes better than the Marinos.Since being trained through KID’sModel Approach to Partnerships inParenting (MAPP) program, theMarinos have fostered 14 children!

Says Mom Stacy, “When a childleaves, the loss can feeloverwhelming – each steals a pieceof our hearts. But you are helpingthese parents get their life together,to give them the chance to fix whatis broken with their family, so youcan reunite their kids with them.

When those children go back totheir family, another child can cometo our house to have theopportunity to have a home.”

Diana Lake, Director of BrowardCounty Foster Care (a KID partneragency), notes, “Any adult can apply to be a foster parent. They canbe single, married, or a same sexcouple.” After backgroundclearances, licensing paperwork,and the MAPP course, comesapproval. Is it worth it? The Marinofamily gives an enthusiastic, “Yes!”

Dad Anthony adds, not only isKID’s MAPP class effective – “bythe third class, I knew we could dothis” – he “totally falls in love withevery child who passes through ourhome.” And sometimes, they stay.

The Marino Family Originally a family of four, todaythe Marinos number eight: DadAnthony, Mom Stacy, biologicaldaughters Savannah andMackenzie, now adopted sonsSebastian and Rocky, plus fostersons Tristan and Caden.

Mom Stacy sums it up withcharacteristic grace and eloquence.“Our family is by no meansconventional – but it’s unique andwonderful beyond words. I’m so proudof my girls. KID’s foster program hastaught our family the true meaning oflove, dedication, selflessness andbelief in something larger thanourselves. We are happier than weever imagined. For this, and muchmore, we thank Kids In Distress.”

He was born in October 2010. Justlike thousands of other babies inSouth Florida. Only this child wasdifferent.

Isaiah was born addicted. Andwhile other newborns were safelynestled in their parents’ arms,Isaiah was suffering from drugwithdrawal.

His birth mother had usedstreet drugs while he was still inthe womb – the term for babies likeIsaiah is substance-exposed. But tosee what these infants endure... issomething else altogether. Towatch withdrawal pains rack their

bodies. To hear the high-pitchedcries. To feel powerless.

Isaiah stayed 19 days andnights in the hospital. That’s whereyou come in.

Immediately after leaving thehospital, he was brought to Kids In

When an anonymous 911 callalerted Palm Beach Countyparamedics to a woman, neardeath in her home, what theyfound defied imagination. Everywindow of the house was boardedshut. Inside, temperatures hoveredat 125 degrees.

The woman was rushed to ahospital. Then – in a dark andsweltering bedroom – theydiscovered 12-year-old Elizabeth.Hair matted to her skull. Unable tospeak. Never toilet trained. No oneknew she existed!

Kids In Distress was calledimmediately. Back at the shelter,Elizabeth covered her ears. Shescreamed out loud. Punched at herlegs, over and over. Our staff andtherapists went right to work.

Before long, she could holdher own utensils – and startedgesturing to communicate.

Isaiah

Elizabeth

Distress. Here, two KID-trainedfoster parents were waiting towelcome him into their loving homewith open arms. He attended KID’sPreschool Plus from the beginning.

Of the experience, Foster DadJohn says, “Kids In Distress wasextremely welcoming. They werehelpful. We could tell it was a teamenvironment.” Better yet, Isaiah’sfoster family officially became hisforever family! They adopted himin May.

Isaiah still attends ourPreschool Plus. He’s thriving. Heturned two this October! Andthanks to your support of KID, thisbirthday was filled with health,happiness and hope.

Meanwhile, other KID staff tried topiece together her story. Therewere no childhood immunizationrecords. She never attendedschool. The woman who wasrescued turned out to be her mother,and would survive. Everyone tookturns holding Elizabeth’s hand andwalking with her around KID’scampus – her favorite activity.Then one day, she smiled!

Soon after, we locatedElizabeth’s real father. The momenthe learned of Elizabeth, he drove forhours just to be by her side. And in atrue miracle, he embraced hisdaughter as a cherished,permanent member of his family!Talk about a return on yourinvestment: a lifetime of newtomorrows for the girl no oneknew existed.

This year, KID made national headlines when the Lifetimenetwork’s premier home improvement show DesigningSpaces chose Kids In Distress for a makeover of ourUrbanek House – a multipurpose activity space dedicatedto our children. We were thrilled!

Every day for two solid weeks, nearly a dozen KID volunteersappeared like magic, from community business leaders to Eagle Scouts to individual donors. (We even boasted a celebrity or two, including the National Hockey League’swonderful Ed Jovanovski, star defenseman of our own Florida Panthers! See Ed’s photo, page 1.)

Together with the Designing Spaces team, our tireless KIDvolunteers rolled up their sleeves and went to work. They painted. They scrubbed. They installed flooring. And by the time the last hammer sounded, the activity space was gorgeous and glistening!

Already, the new Urbanek House has the official seal ofapproval from our children. Said one, “We could close our eyes and walk around this place. This is our place.”

To all our volunteers, corporate sponsors, staff, volunteers– and to the Designing Spaces team – thank you for taking part in KID’s labor of love!
