CAPITAL CAMPAIGN

In order to maintain high client success rates, improve client health services and increase outpatient capacity, St. Jude’s Recovery Center has raised over $4 million for its $5.35 million Restoring Lives, Serving Atlanta Capital Campaign. The agency is currently in the public phase of the campaign which will raise the additional $1.35 million to complete all necessary renovations and upgrades to its facilities. Renovations will better equip the agency to serve the growing number of those in need of addiction treatment services due in large part to the opioid crisis.

CAMPAIGN SUMMARYSt. Jude’s Recovery Center $2,000,000 Construction of Healthcare Center $1,500,000 Purchase of Land $500,000 Renovation of Existing Facilities $3,350,000TOTAL: $5,350,000

2017-2018 was a busy and exciting year for St. Jude’s Recovery Center. We were awarded our eighth three-year CARF accreditation, the highest award from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. This accreditation shows the organization’s commitment to continuous performance improvement, responsiveness to feedback and accountability to the community and its other stakeholders.Through feedback from clients and staff we transitioned one of our recovery residences into a Women’s Recovery Residence. The home provides a sober living environment for our clients who have completed our residential program

and are stable and employed.The opioid epidemic is having a devastating effect on Metro Atlanta in particular where the opioid overdose death rate in Fulton County is more than double the national average. As a result, St. Jude’s has experienced a dramatic surge in clients who need treatment for opioid addiction. This year, the agency responded to the opioid epidemic by launching a medication assisted treatment program for opioid abuse. The program outcomes are already indicating the dramatic and positive results that clients are experiencing as a result of this initiative. To date, St. Jude’s has raised over $4M of our $5.35M, Restoring Lives, Serving Atlanta capital campaign. We have purchased land, built a new healthcare center and are renovating our seven facilities. St. Jude’s commitment to providing our clients with access to fully integrated services led to a partnership with Mercy Care who operates a primary clinic in the Healthcare Center for our clients and also serves the broader community in need of healthcare services. In April of 2018 Mercy Care increased services from 3 to 5 days per week.We are blessed with a committed Board of Directors and a dedicated staff that treats every client with dignity, compassion and respect. It is through the Atlanta community’s support that we have been able to offer hope for 56 years. Your investment has a lasting impact on St. Jude’s clients and the community as a whole.

With gratitude,

Suzanne Shaffer, M.S.President & CEO

FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS TO A LEADER IN ADDICTION TREATMENTSt. Jude’s Recovery Center was founded in 1962 by downtown business leaders, municipal court judges, and two inner-city churches, All Saints and St. Luke’s, to address the problem of chronic alcoholic court offenders. St. Jude’s purchased its first facility in 1963, and since that time the organization has increased the number of facilities it owns and operates in Atlanta from one to eight—all while operating with a balanced budget and remaining debt-free. St. Jude’s attributes its longevity and success to strong business practices and fiscal management.

WHO WE SERVESt. Jude’s is open to anyone seeking treatment. We primarily serve residents of Fulton and DeKalb counties, who for the most part are homeless or low-income men and women, veterans, families with children, and those who do not have private insurance and/or cannot afford to pay for treatment. More than 50% of St. Jude’s total work directly relates to homeless persons. In addition, 38% of St. Jude’s clients are affected by a co-occurring mental health disorder.

DETOXIFICATION MEDICALLY MONITORED,SUB-ACUTE DETOXIFICATION

St. Jude’s serves men and women who require 24-hour supervision, for medical stabilization of withdrawal symptoms. The duration of the detoxification period is individualized. Withdrawal symptoms are resolved before a client is transitioned to the next level of care.

Evening services are designed to provide education about recovery topics, basic living and coping skills, and relapse prevention.
