Opening Doors to Hope and Recovery
2014 Annual Report
Championing Mental Wellness for Over 30 Years
Our Story
In 1983, three people with deep ties to the Richmond community
founded Gateway Homes. Dr. William T. Moore, Carol Moore and
Florence Z. Segal were concerned parents who watched their children

struggle through the mental health system – shuffling in and out of
hospitals and institutions. They knew there had to be a healthier path
to recovery.
Together, they shared a vision of creating a place where adults with
mental illness would receive a higher standard of care and, in turn, a
better quality of life. Thanks to generous financial and land donations
from Dr. Moore and the hard work of several caring individuals who
supported their cause, Gateway Homes, Inc., was born.

Today we stand 31 years strong as a nonprofit organization that

At any given time, Gateway provides 70 residential
placements on its campus and in the community.
Our Program
Gateway integrates a three-level residential supportive living program with comprehensive holistic health
care, case management, skills training, counseling, classroom education and psychosocial rehabilitation.
Our program includes:
Supervised
Living
Center
This center operates 24/7. The staff provides supervision and psychiatric
rehabilitation services in a congregate setting. Residents receive individualized
treatment plans, and our staff works with them to develop and refine the daily
living and coping skills they need to manage their lives. Activities include individual
skills training, counseling, classroom education and community involvement.
Supported
Living
Apartments
Gateway staff works with residents in campus apartments to help them live as
they would in the community. They focus on developing socialization, educational
and vocational skills for job placement and management of their mental illness.
Here, they continue to receive comprehensive mental health services.
When our residents are ready to transition to independent living, Gateway is there every step of the
way. Individuals receive weekly staff support to ensure they are successfully managing their behavior,
responsibilities and independence.

Community Partnerships
Volunteers
Whether at a food bank
or The Virginia Home,
residents enjoy volunteering
their time with other local
nonprofits. Residents
often say that volunteering
has given them a new
perspective and allows them
to be grateful for what they
have. It’s a powerful lesson.
Gateway leverages our resources through vibrant
community partnerships. We have become a
sought-after employer and placement site for
student interns from the University of Richmond,
John Tyler Community College, Capella University,
South University, Virginia State University and
Virginia Commonwealth University. Collaborative
relationships with counseling, psychology, social
work and occupational therapy departments are
iPod Touch Study Program
In association with Virginia Commonwealth
University, Gateway began an iPod Touch program
in 2012 to assist individuals living with mental
illness. The cutting-edge study was designed
to test the effectiveness of using technology

Residents were given a binder of instructions,
screenshots and exercises. Initially, they were
taught the basics, including navigation, calendar
reminders and tips for operation. Then they
were shown how to use apps like Mood Tracker,
“The iPod is helping me take my medication and track my moods, and

helps me manage my mental illness ... [and] achieve my goals.”

Art as a Gift
“
When I do art,
I put my whole
self into it. It
takes everything:
imagination,
creativity and
real energy.
“
– Daniel Rettinger
“Music therapy helps our residents learn relaxation techniques, build coping
skills, share struggles and reach a common ground in their recovery.”
– Lori Brown, MT-BC, MSW
Gateway encourages our residents’
inner artists through musical and
visual arts. When nurtured, artistry
gives them an outlet to create
without stigma while gaining
confidence in themselves and
their abilities.
In April, an art exhibit featuring the
work of four residents debuted
at the James Center Atrium in
Richmond. Artist and Gateway board
member Kathleen Markowitz served
as curator. The exhibit was well
received by the community, and the
achievement provided the artists with
a source of pride and a great sense
of accomplishment.
“Maybe the people [in my work] are shy like
me. It seems like they are all searching for
something. All I needed to do was release
this on paper and find a way.”
– Wendy Sparks
Holistic and Integrated Health Care
“
In my first three months
at Gateway, we were
able to successfully
reduce doctor visits
from 93 to 38 per quarter.
“
– Mike Henning, APN-C
Gateway’s recent shift toward holistic care
includes treating the mind, body and spirit. By
taking physical and social factors into account,
we can both empower our residents and help
improve their overall well-being.
Our newest staff member, Mike Henning,
APN-C, is dedicated to improving residents’
health and educating them on the effects
their illness will have on others. As a nurse
practitioner, he works as their personal
champion and interpreter, often clarifying
doctors’ instructions. As a result:
• Gateway reduces transportation
costs caused by unnecessary, repeat
hospital visits
• Staff members have more time to
devote to our residents
• Residents save money on health
care costs
By working hand in hand with our staff
psychiatrist, Mike has been pivotal in enhancing
our health care delivery and progressing our
philosophy of holistic recovery.
“Gateway saw a growing need to provide our residents with both medical
and psychiatric services. Welcoming a nurse practitioner has been key to
our providing comprehensive care in a nurturing environment.” – Lynda Hyatt, PhD
