The Carriage House Community Table 2010 Annual Report from our executive director Recently, I took my daughter to a local restaurant for a hamburger. Imagine my surprise when I looked up to see my waitress, and saw a familiar face. While she patiently fielded my daughter’s multiple and somewhat unreasonable requests, she told me about her life since homelessness. She is working, in a committed relationship and in an apartment. While she faces continued financial challenges, she is both happy and healthy. She thanked me over and over for the services she received at CHCT. I remember her distinctly because she faxed many, many resumes and the only fax machine in the building is in my tiny and very crowded office. What she identified as being most helpful to her were our computers, our interview clothing room, our individualized voice mail and financial assistance with her security deposit. Her time as a homeless person was relatively brief, but I am happy to say that our assistance shortened that time considerably. I often get asked why we offer so many basic services like food and clothing. Often the questioners are genuinely curious, but sometimes they value self-reliance so highly that they genuinely believe it is better to not feed or otherwise care for people that are homeless. The Carriage House Community Table explicitly believes that every person functions better when their survival needs are met. By starting with basic needs, we can form a relationship with hard-to-reach people and then start helping them in other ways. It is very exciting for us as staff when a person uses those basic services as a bridge to greater health and self sufficiency. We also recognize that each person that exits homelessness quickly saves the community a great deal of expense. However, for me as an individual, I would say to look up to this particular woman’s smiling and beautiful face was truly priceless. There are never words quite eloquent enough to thank the Boulder community for its support, and this annual report is just one effort at saying thank you. Please know how deeply heartfelt our thanks is, and that I speak for all of the staff, Board, volunteers, and guests at the Carriage House when I tell you that we are proud and honored to be supported by this community. I am proud to be able to carry this young woman’s gratitude back to you, the people to whom it really belongs. Joy Eckstine, LCSW Executive Director 2 The Carriage House Community Table • 2010 Annual Report our stories Jody I never, ever, ever thought I could become homeless with no job, no money, destitute! But that is exactly what happened to me! After spending 90 days in Boulder County jail for a DUI, I emerge Dec. 14, 2004, with no shelter, no job, car repossessed, and about $10 to my name. Because of my alcoholism, I became estranged from my family. Married, but separated from an abusive man, I really was alone. My biggest obstacle to getting a job is that I am profoundly deaf. I wear a hearing aid but I have great difficulty with telephones. I read lips, so I have to be looking at you to understand what is being said. When my time ran out at The Safehouse, I either couch-surfed, camped out or stayed at the Boulder Shelter for the Homeless. I found out about the Carriage House. I started checking out resources there to obtain housing and SSDI for my hearing disability and mental issues (bipolar and depression). The Carriage House staff helped with phone calls and appointments, tokens for the bus, referrals for dental work and to get my hearing aid fixed. I now have my own apartment and financial help from SSDI. My life has changed for the better, definitely -- never could have happened if I didn’t get sober! One of the most wonderful things is that I am now at peace with my family, accepted with open arms! Dave I came to the Carriage House only about a week after I first went to the Boulder Shelter. I initially felt the place was too small for all these people jostling and bumping into one another. No one had any elbowroom. There were only four computers upstairs, and someone was, invariably, already on one when I got up there. The caseworkers didn’t have a lot of time to talk or help with anything before someone would knock and come busting in. This became highly annoying, and I often wondered how staff ever got anything done! They did though, to their enormous credit. The Carriage House provided hot meals. You could get your mail there, take a shower, put on a fresh pair of socks, change your shirt or pants, and get bus tokens. Three things really stood out. These people, no matter how busy they got, really cared about us. People are just people, and sometimes tempers on both sides flared, but mostly they had an uncanny understanding of human nature. Handling a multitude of mixed emotions from many races, and socioeconomic backgrounds all clamoring for attention is draining. Secondly, CH continuously put programs in place to make things easier and to give hope and regain dignity and workplace skills, aptly naming one HOPE. HOPE amazed me many times by pulling people together spiritually and emotionally. Some of my best friendships stemmed from those meetings. Last, they pull the financial strings on my behalf, twice lining up situations that regained my identification. Without ID, you have no real chance to land a job, and other programs require it too. Without ID, you might as well sit on a rock somewhere, because you’re never going to climb back up again. Because of Carriage House’s help and support, I got a telemarketing job, allowing me slowly to save for a car. I used that car to travel to Illinois and take care of my mother who is dying of cancer. I use that $500 dollar car to go to meetings 45 minutes away, do odd jobs on Craigslist, get groceries, and apply for jobs. I’m grateful to the Carriage House for all their help and understanding during a time when hope was nearly non-existent, when jail seemed a better solution than freezing to death, when I had lost faith in most of what I thought I knew, and coming to that place was almost a daily ritual. Without the love and respect that was shown me; I’m not sure where I would have ended up.

They give hugs, a shoulder to cry on, and unending words of comfort. We’ve got loads of volunteer stories that have touched us over the last year. Here are just a few we want to share with you: • Dozens of individual volunteers as well as churches & businesses made holiday “stockings” for our guests, which were new socks filled with items they can use: small food treats, toiletries, flashlights, even gift certificates for local restaurants and stores. • A young volunteer collected money as part of his Bar Mitzvah project to donate to the Carriage House Community Table. • Volunteer chefs prepare a week’s worth of flavorful & delicious meals with spices donated by Savory Spice Shop. Tundra Specialties donated a dozen hotel pans that we use for storing and reheating our cooked meals in each week. • Eco-Lite donated dozens of high-end jackets, tents and pants which really help our clients survive in the elements year-round. • A generous donor rented a garden plot for us at Hawthorn Gardens last spring, enabling us to have our first Carriage House Community Table garden! Our clients worked alongside volunteers throughout the season, harvesting lots of fresh produce that was used in our lunches & dinners. • For our Thanksgiving AND Christmas meals, dozens of volunteers waited on our guests, serving a full catered holiday dinner with all the trimmings provided by Savory Cuisine. Volunteers brought the dinners, dessert and bread out to each guest. The Carriage House Community Table works because of our volunteers. Over 300 volunteers give thousands of hours of service. While volunteering at The Carriage House Community Table is not always glamorous, it is often fun and fulfilling.
