Dear Friends:
There is something special about the beginning of a new year.
It’s an opportunity to reflect on the year past and plan for the year ahead.
I have had the privilege of going through this process now for 37 years at White’s.
Each year I’m amazed at both the many lives we touch and the progress we make in improving our program. And yet, so much more still needs to be done.
What I now realize is “even in the best of families” life can be challenging, and sometimes a family simply doesn’t have the resources to help bring restoration to their lives. This is where White’s ministry comes in: “We Stand in the Gap for families in crisis.” This newsletter is dedicated to giving you the highlights of our accomplishments and recognizing your vital role in White’s ministry. With your help, White’s is a place where “Standing in the Gap” is something we do every day. It is my hope that you take a moment to read our annual report and better understand the impact of White’s mission on our community, state, and nation.
There were three major program developments in 2013 that will improve the lives of children, teens, and families in Indiana and around the country.
• First, we expanded Compass Rose Academy, our parent-choice program for 14- to 17-year-old girls whose families are at rock bottom and
• desperately need someone to step into their lives and bring grace and truth.
• Second, we greatly improved our Clinical Services on the Wabash campus by bringing in new Director Jessica Brown and a team of four highly trained therapists to provide a more integrated level of treatment for our students and their parents.
• Third, we were awarded a contract to begin new Comprehensive Home-
Based Services, which will allow us to meet the extended needs of children and families beyond our regular care.
I recently read a leadership blog that said, “If you spend more of your time looking back and reflecting on where you’ve been than you do on where you are going, it’s time to do something different.” At White’s, we are eagerly planning for the future. While supporting our residential and foster care programs, we are going to continue to expand Compass Rose Academy (our therapeutic boarding school). Also, we plan to expand into a variety of Community-Based Services where we are working with children and families in their own homes.
So as we take some time to celebrate our past and prepare for our future,
I’d like to thank you for your faithful support and interest in White’s ministry.
Thank you for partnering with us in this vital work of restoring the lives of children, teens and families in crisis.
Sincerely,
White’s Residential & Family Services is a Christ-centered, nonprofit social services organization that works to redirect, rebuild and restore Indiana’s children, teens and families. For more than 160 years, White’s has helped children, teens and families in crisis, in transition and in need of support through its accredited and comprehensive continuum of community- and home-based services, foster care, adoption and residential treatment programs. White’s believes no family is exempt from tough times, and we aim to serve families with the services they need, wherever they may be.
White’s Residential & Family Services is a Christ-centered organization committed to enriching the lives of children and families through emotional healing, personal development and spiritual growth.

Throughout the 26 years I’ve been at White’s, I’ve heard from countless former students how staff members have heavily influenced them in turning their lives around. This past summer,
I had the opportunity to serve as interim pastor on the residential campus and invited two such students to share their life stories in chapel. Both of these “young men” are now 42 years old! Both shared how much the staff cared about them during their time of need, and how the lessons they learned from staff in school and in chapel changed their lives. One speaker was a truck driver and shared how he often sings chapel songs he learned at White’s because they still encourage him in his walk with God. The other young man, who struggled with substance abuse, told us that his life was also changed at White’s. He turned his life over to God and credited much of his transformation to the love and positive influence he received from our staff. He now leads Celebration Recovery in his local church. This past year, I have been encouraged by seeing how we make a difference in so many “kids.” We are called to use this time to redirect, rebuild and restore their lives! I am thankful to be a part of this ministry!
In my role at White’s, I often do not experience the joys and successes that our staff experience when they work closely with children and families. However, the nature of my job requires that I receive any communication that is particularly heart-rending. I have always been challenged when I hear the stories of heartbreak and trauma that many of our children experience. I have struggled to understand why terrible things happen to others, especially innocent children. As I have reflected on this past year, I have been more convinced than ever that no family is exempt from hardships. While each of us has different circumstances, any of us could one day find that we are without the resources needed to make sound decisions and live our best lives. That is why I feel it is so important for White’s to meet families where they are and stand in the gap with families. I have grown to appreciate that I do not need to have all of the answers or understand why heart-breaking things happen. I simply need to trust that we at White’s can provide the right support and guidance for families at the right time by living our faith and our mission.
• First, we expanded Compass Rose Academy, our parent-choice, therapeutic boarding school for
14- to 17-year-old girls whose families are at rock bottom and desperately need someone to step into their lives and bring grace and truth.
• White’s greatly improved its Clinical Services on the Wabash campus by bringing in new Director
Jessica Brown and a team of four highly trained therapists to provide a more integrated level of treatment for students and their parents.
• White’s was awarded a contract to begin new Comprehensive Home-Based Services, which will meet the extended needs of children and families beyond regular care.
Working directly with teenagers and their families over the course of this past year has had a strong impact on me, not only professionally but personally too. Families have not sought our help during the good times, not during the mediocre times, but during times of total desperation, confusion, and hurt. Walking alongside people during some of the darkest days of their lives is certainly a way to get perspective on life, pain and, ultimately, hope. What would I say to a family without the love of Christ to give? What would I tell a hurting teen without the hope of Christ in my heart? Sometimes it’s barely about what we tell them at all.
Everything else seems like a mere platitude or cliché compared to entering into the well with someone in a time of darkness and offering to walk the journey with them. Be grace. Be truth.
Just be there. On the journey of raising our own children now too, my wife and I can only hope for loving, supportive friends, family, and other helpers to be present with us during the good and bad times that lie ahead of all of us.
“It’s not the one who plants or the one who waters who is at the center of this process but
God, who makes things grow.” (1 Corinthians 3:6) Since my arrival at White’s last summer,
I have seen many occasions where we’ve planted seeds in young people’s hearts.
Some lives are changed automatically; some hearts need time to be nurtured before love can take root. Last fall, while working in Rudy’s café here on campus, I became acquainted with a student worker. She worked when I worked so we naturally started chatting and soon connected with each other over many things. When the time came for her to leave White’s,
I asked her if she was excited and ready for the transition. She expressed, “I don’t think I am.”
I asked her if she knew Jesus Christ and she responded, “I don’t feel like I know Jesus yet, but I want to.” I then was able to lead this young lady to a personal relationship with the Lord.
She is now attending a church and youth group in her hometown. We may never see how our day-to-day work impacts a young life. But, I take heart in knowing our job is simply to plant.
It is Christ’s job to cause what was once dead and breathe life into it.
• As always, White’s will continue to remain Christ-centered in its relationships with those we serve, our employees and our communities.
• White’s will continue to expand Compass Rose Academy
(our parent-choice therapeutic boarding school).
• White’s plans to expand into a variety of Community-Based Services where staff can work with children and families in their own homes.

THE COMPASS ROSE BLOG
POSTED FEBRUARY 27, 2014
BY CAMPUS PASTOR AMY CORNELL
“While we were still sinning, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8
I had just come into the house from the gym. Sweaty, I sighed as I surveyed the laundry that needed folding, the toys askew on the floor and the morning’s dishes. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
It was my father. He had stopped over to say hello.
I was ashamed at the sad state of affairs. I threw my arms up in surrender.
“Dad,” I sputtered as he went to hug me, “I am sweaty and gross and the place is a disaster.”
“That’s okay, Amy,” he said, hugging me anyway. “You are still mine.”
You are still mine.
You are still mine.
You are still mine.
These are the words I hear my Heavenly Father say as I come to Him with all my sin and shame.
These are the words that ring in my ear when I try and fail, again and again. These are the words that beckon me when I pour my heart out in vulnerability and get a blank stare.
You are still mine.
When we know whose we are, we can come to the throne of Grace with courage and boldness. When we know whose we are, we know that the road to recovery is not hopeless. When we know whose we are, the opinions or criticisms of others pale in comparison to the fact that the God of the Universe is on our side.
Romans 5 says that while we were still blowing it out in the world, Jesus came and died for us.
Why? Wouldn’t it make more sense for Christ to die for cleaned up, drama-free people?
No.
Christ died while we were still sinning so that we would know that our adoption into the family of God had absolutely nothing to do with our goodness or righteousness. It was Christ, the Hound of Heaven, who sought us out and died in our place so that we could be part of the family of God and have what He calls the
“abundant life.” It was Christ who first loved, Christ who pursued, Christ who died. We had as much a part in saving ourselves as a dead man has in his own resuscitation.
Today and every day, Jesus speaks one word over you:
“Mine.”
May you live into that joy and freedom.
Amen.
T hroughout our lives, we’ve been able to interact with a lot of foster kids and foster parents, and that’s been a key part of our lives. We’ve seen people give themselves away to care for those who are overwhelmed or overlooked and are victims of life’s circumstances. As people consider and pray about giving of their time, talent and treasure, those are things that we offer freely so we can look out for these kids.”
Tom Cochran, White’s Foster and Adoptive Parent year ago today,
I was accepted into
Compass Rose
Academy. While I was there, I turned my life around completely and now am a better person. I learned a lot of skills to deal with everyday complications, and
I found a lot of selfworth. I found my true identity instead of the crazy bipolar girl who self-harmed daily. Without all the help from the
CRA staff and all the support from my friends and family,
I don’t even want to imagine where I would be right now.”
Lanie,
Compass Rose Academy
Graduate his year we have been so blessed to find CRA and we are so thankful to you for helping us restore peace and happiness in our home. This program has helped
Megan, and we are gaining the confidence that we might finish well with our youngest child. I want you to know how much we appreciate you for this gift of resolution!”
Parents of
Compass Rose Academy
Student he reason I came to
White’s is because I was definitely defiant to my mother. I was kind of the black sheep. I got into the court system and my mom didn’t know what to do anymore. It was up to me to say either
I’m going to be in the system my whole life or I’m going to fix it.
I grew as a person when I was at White’s, and it was because of every single staff member. I’m now a freshman at Purdue
University and on the track and field team. I hope to eventually be affiliated with White’s because I want to give back to what’s been given to me.”
Lucas Wallace,
Residential Services
Graduate ithin two weeks of coming to White’s,
I knew this was going to be different than any other place I had lived. I was not an honor student and
I tried to play the system for a while.
But no matter what
I did, they loved me, forgave, and never gave up on me. The staff at White¹s loved me and showed me how to change from the inside out.”

The Josiah White Heritage Society honors those who, like founder
Josiah White, share a deep commitment to improving the lives of at-risk children. Members provide for the future of White’s ministry by arranging a future gift, such as through a will, trust, life insurance or IRA beneficiary designation, or a charitable gift annuity. Membership in the Josiah
White Heritage Society can only be extended to those who inform us of their planned future gift.
If you have included White’s in your will or other planned gift provision, please call us at
260-563-1158 ex. 1346.
Like investing in a 401(k) retirement plan, White’s 401(k)ids plan members invest in young lives each month through check, automatic credit card charges, electronic fund transfers or, for White’s staff, through payroll deductions. This easy way of giving provides enrichment experiences for the children in our care.
