CHARLES REAVES executive directorDEAR FRIENDS,

It is a pleasure to share with you Children Awaiting Parents (CAP) -Donald J. Corbett Adoption Agency’s 2017-18 Annual Report. This report highlights the organizations accomplishments and finances during the fiscal year April 1, 2017 - March 31, 2018.

From its inception over 45 years ago, becoming an adoption agency was the main goal of CAP’s founders. When the dream of becoming a state authorized adoption agency was fulfilled 12 months ago, the work wasn’t complete, it was just getting started.

A new era for CAP had begun with the establishment of the Donald J. Corbett Adoption Agency. Moving forward, we are poised for an even more promising future, one that allows for more children and families to remain with us throughout the entire adoption process. This affords them more access to services through relationships that have already been established. None of this would be possible without the help of our committed donors, staff, volunteers and board members. I would like to give special thanks to an anonymous contributor who generously donated $100,000 that played a critical role in kicking off our Appeal Campaign, as well as John Brown and Jack Kraushaar who provided pro bono advertising services during the Appeals Campaign that included 3 ebooks.

While each year poses a new set of challenges, I am confident that with our collective dedication and commitment we will successfully meet the goal our founders established that every child deserves a forever home.

With gratitude,Charles Reaves Executive Director Children Awaiting Parents

CHARLES REAVESExecutive Director

HONORABLE DONALD J. CORBETT

The Honorable Donald J. Corbett Adoption Agency (CAA) at Children Awaiting Parent (CAP), is named after Monroe County Family Court and NYS Court of Claims Judge Donald J. Corbett.Judge Corbett was credited with opening doors for women in law, working for the betterment of housing for low income residents and consistently supporting the efforts to support children’s issues.

and support servicesIt seems as if this statement has been the battle cry for Children Awaiting Parents (CAP) since it was developed. Established in 1972 CAP has built its reputation on advocacy for children and families. By support, training, educational and medical resources CAP used its connections for building awareness surrounding the needs of America’s longest waiting children in the foster care system. CAP led the way to innovative paths by the use of multimedia for regional and national recruitment of families who would like to adopt waiting children. We used the National Inquirer to publish photos and a small narrative about the children. We were the first to enlist the World Wide Web to let families know about the children. CAP established a strong local footprint while maintaining national outreach for children and families. We were happy with our role of providing services and advocacy as needed but as time moved forward, the needs of the families and the children increased. CAP saw a bigger need to develop an adoption agency that would specialize in services for children in the foster care system. On November 19th, 2017 the Honorable Donald J Corbett Adoption Agency was officially approved by New York State. The doors were opened and immediately families came to be trained but more importantly to develop lasting relationships that would take them through the entire adoption process and beyond. In less than a year the Corbett Adoption Agency has 13 families who have successfully completed training. Now those families are being matched with children and new lifetime relationships are being developed. While we realize that this is not a road for many, we also realize that there are those waiting to fulfil and take the steps needed to complete the journey. We want to be here to help families and children face adversity and break records. Patricia BurksDirector of Program and Support ServicesChildren Awaiting Parents

THE SANDERS FAMILYJames and I are both teachers. We became foster parents in 2007 and have parented 9 children of all ages and needs.

Our daughter, Allie, came to us at birth through the foster care system. She was finally adopted just a few months before her 4th birthday. Allie has since been diagnosed with High Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Our son, Marc, also came to us at birth through the foster care system. Unlike Allie, Marc had many medical and developmental needs right from the very beginning. He suffered from Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome when he was born because his birth mother was a poly-drug user. After detoxing in the NICU for a month we were finally able to bring him home.

Marc was diagnosed at 1 year with Global Developmental Delays. We’ve been working with Early Intervention therapists since he was 2 months old and he currently receives 6 Early Intervention sessions a week. We’ve also been to Rochester for genetic and neurological testing, he had an MRI of his brain done at 6-months to look for brain damage that he might have suffered while in utero and he is currently under the care of a local pediatric Ophthamologist for his Nystagmus.

Marc was adopted 13 days before his 2nd birthday.

We are truly blessed by our children. It isn’t always easy but it is always worth it!

I have a quote that I absolutely love: “Dare to reach your hand into the darkness to pull another hand into the light.” -NORMAN B. RICE
