STRATEGIC The following strategic priorities will be the focus of
Pressley Ridge (FY2022 – 2024):
PLAN Racial Equity
OUTLINE Racial equity is just one part of racial justice, and thus we will work
to address the root causes of inequities, not just their manifestation.
This includes the elimination of policies, practices, attitudes, and
cultural messages that reinforce differential outcomes by race or fail
to eliminate them. We will continue to advance data-driven strategies,

and actionable.
Financial Health
Pressley Ridge will meet our obligations, withstand temporary
financial challenges, and plan for our growth and future needs by
maintaining a strong cash position, generating consistent surpluses
from operations, maintaining acceptable debt ratios, deriving revenue
from a diverse pool of sources, and providing for capital project
funding.
Business Development
We will strategically position ourselves for growth by evaluating
mission-aligned expansion and acquisition opportunities which
return the highest margins, while most efficiently delivering impactful
outcomes where there may be gaps in services in communities. We
will also actively seek opportunities for coordinating care model
expansion in states looking for managed care solutions, and mergers
and acquisitions with complementary organizations or in desirable
geographic locations.

Success Stories
Michael
After struggling to find success in public school, Michael James came to the Pressley Ridge Day School
Pittsburgh. At the time, anger and self-control issues made him act out and become aggressive in the
classroom. Using the 12 principles of Re-Education, which focuses on the strengths of each child and
family and the belief that a child’s behavior can change, the teachers and support staff worked with
Michael to identify his strengths and helped him learn to stop and think before reacting.

Success Stories
Candace
Candace King began her foster care journey in
2011. Though many foster parents are hesitant
to take in older kids, Candace’s natural ability to
connect with girls over the age of seven and into
their teens made her an ideal foster parent. For
the past decade, she has provided more than
two dozen young girls with a stable home life
and the patience, warmth and love they need
during a formative time in their lives.
In the beginning, adoption was not part of the plan. That changed in May 2017 when Faith and Jurnee were placed in her
care after witnessing their mother’s tragic death when she was hit by a car. The children’s father was unable to care for
them. So, in addition to the trauma of losing their mother, the children were uprooted from their home, and the girls were
separated from their three siblings. Jurnee, who is intellectually disabled, and Faith, who was already behind in her academics,
both needed a great deal of support. They also needed extensive grief counseling due to the circumstances surrounding the
loss of their mother.
As a Pressley Ridge treatment parent, Candace worked directly alongside our staff to provide therapy and treatment.
Through consistent behavioral and trauma-based interventions, clinical consults, and unconditional love and care, Candace
gave support and encouragement, and most importantly, she was there to help Jurnee and Faith feel safe.
Candace formed a tight bond with the girls and knew in her heart that she wanted Faith and Jurnee to join her growing
family. She officially adopted the sisters in November 2020.
Thanks to Candace’s love and guidance and the support of the Pressley Ridge
staff, Jurnee is receiving the help she needs, and Faith is gaining ground in
school. Their lives are full and busy as both girls sing with the church choir,
Jurnee loves photography, and Faith enjoys dance and cheerleading. Above all,
the sisters are thriving in their forever family with Candace and their three
new sisters.

Success Stories Sarah As a toddler, Sarah began showing signs of severe mental health issues. She experienced episodes in which she felt confused, annoyed, short-tempered and disoriented. She would act out in unpredictable and violent ways, often directing her anger and aggression at her mother. Eventually, Sarah’s mother could no longer care for her, and throughout the early part of her life, she was placed in numerous treatment facilities, psychiatric hospitals, foster homes, and residential facilities due to her behavior. In 2018, Sarah was placed with Kim. As a Treatment Parent with Pressley Ridge, Kim has received advanced training to work directly with youth like Sarah on changing behaviors and building new skills. For 11 years, Kim has opened her home to help children with chronic mental health and behavioral issues. When she first came to live with Kim, Sarah’s behavior was very erratic. She had episodes in which she would go into a rage slamming her bedroom door repeatedly trying to break it. Kim responded by removing the door to let Sarah know that this type of behavior would not be tolerated. Sarah suffered from extreme mood swings and anxiety. She also had low impulse control and often became so agitated and enraged that she would destroy furniture, as well as Kim’s personal property. During these episodes, Kim emphasized to her that all she was doing was breaking “things.” Kim cared more for Sarah than the items she destroyed. Kim used the training she received from Pressley Ridge to gain Sarah’s trust and support her emotional needs. When Kim learned how much Sarah loved to read, she began using books as a tool to reward good behavior. Over her time with Kim, Sarah has amassed quite a library of books. Sarah was used to her behavior resulting in being moved, but Kim chose to show her that she was in a place now where someone cared about her and would not give up on her, no matter what. Kim was the first person in Sarah’s life who was willing to work through her difficult behavior. The longer she was with Kim, the less frequent the extreme behaviors became. Though it wasn’t an easy road, Kim remained steadfast in her dedication to Sarah. For the first time in her life, Sarah did not have to be hospitalized during the three years she has spent with Kim. Sarah recently turned 18, which marks her entry into adulthood and a new chapter in her journey. She is learning self-regulation and remains in Kim’s home as she prepares to transition into adult services. A plan is in place for her to get a job and, hopefully, one day live on her own. Finally, there is hope on the horizon for Sarah. Hope & Support Through Life’s Challenges Pressley Ridge 2021 Annual Report 8
