Message from our Board and Leadership
A Commitment to Cost Cutting
& Maintaining Quality Services
W
e are pleased to share our FY2009
annual report with you. Indicative of the
past couple of years, making ends meet
has been extremely difficult. If it were not for the
support of many Sweetser friends and supporters,
many more needy Maine citizens would go without
vital services that include therapy, housing and
education. Our Board, staff and volunteers are doing
everything possible to help meet the needs of those
who turn to us for help. Cost cutting has become
a routine focus. Balancing a growing demand for
services with fewer staff and without jeopardizing
the quality of care we provide is our greatest
challenge. We continue to make adjustments,
always prioritizing to best serve the 13,000 Mainers
who depend on Sweetser.
President & CEO
William J. Zafirson
Chair, Board of Directors
We thank you for your partnership with Sweetser. Your charitable dollar,
more than ever before, is making a difference in the lives of many. Turning
folks away is a very tough option, one we hope to minimize with your
continued financial support.
Another difficult economic year is anticipated in 2010. Despite these
challenges, Sweetser will continue to be a leader and reliable resource for
people in need who have depended on our services since 1828.

Volunteer Profile: Ruth Bentley
Dedicated to Sweetser & Volunteerism
Ruth Bentley is indeed a special person. She spends her free time helping others, despite
enduring three bouts of cancer over the years and beating all the odds. “I am not going to feel
sorry for myself,” says Ruth. “I don’t think life can really be fulfilled unless you give of yourself.”
Ruth is a very positive person and has a strong belief in faith. As a daughter of a Lutheran
Preacher, Ruth grew up giving. She taught Sunday School at her father’s church and eventually
earned an MSW at Washington University in St. Louis. In 1968 she and her husband moved
to Sanford, Maine. She worked for Head Start as a social worker and noticed that Sweetser was Ruth Bentley
opening a residential home in Kennebunk for five adolescents and pre-adolescents. She volunteered to mentor the children,
taking them to restaurants, apple picking and on field trips for birthday parties and holidays.
She also volunteered at Sweetser’s Pre-School Program in Springvale every Friday for seven years. The program could not
sustain itself due to funding issues, much to her dismay. Ruth feels strongly that helping children earlier is better. “It was
natural for me to help these young children,” says Ruth. “I just take kids and do things that I would normally do with my own
children.”
Ruth also serves on Sweetser’s Volunteer Advisory Committee and is active with her church, serving on the Social Concerns
Committee at the Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Kennebunk. She moved to Kennebunkport 12 years ago and can’t seem to
find enough time in the day to do all the things she would like to do. Her love for classical music led her to volunteer playing
the organ at the Baptist Church in Saco. She has also been involved with United Way and was a spokesperson for Southern
Maine Medical Center’s Cancer Treatment Program.
Sweetser is grateful to Ruth for her commitment and dedication to helping those who are less fortunate. She not only gives
her time, but financially supports many of the organizations she is involved with, including Sweetser. Her compassion and
energy is an inspiration to all of us.

Donor Profile: Wesley Ford
Continuing Family Giving
Wesley Ford has been supporting Sweetser for more than 20 years. He admires the
impact Sweetser makes on children’s lives.
“I like the fact that my gift is helping children who need a better chance in
life,” Wesley said. “Sweetser has been doing a good job with kids and making a
difference for many years. My mother contributed to Sweetser for many years
and I continue this support.”
After retiring from Bath Iron Works in 1986 as a computer systems programmer,
Wesley managed his investments well and established a trust that will significantly
benefit Sweetser and those we serve. A quiet and private man, Wesley hesitated
to be featured in this publication, but realized his story might encourage charitable
and planned giving.
Wesley Ford
At the age of 81, Wesley has accomplished much in his life. This planned gift will help Sweetser continue to provide services and
direction to children and families in need.
What began as a generous donation from a supportive mother, has evolved into a legacy of support for future generations from
her caring son.

Planned Gifts & Donations Impact Programs
Despite a recession that has affected just about every American household, contributions to Sweetser
remained strong, but were lower than previous years. Donations from loyal and new supporters helped
make a significant difference for several Sweetser programs that have been affected by state rate reductions and funding issues.
Todd E. Henry
Director of Development
Sweetser received two generous bequests that totaled nearly half a million dollars. These types of
planned gifts are the cornerstone that have helped build Sweetser’s endowment to $25 million since
being founded. Interest from these endowment funds is utilized for annual program support to help
sustain services. Large and small bequests can truly make an impact on Sweetser, especially when
economic times are difficult.
We are grateful to our many loyal friends who have generously donated and continue to support Sweetser’s mission. Thank
you to participants, business supporters and sponsors of our two major fundraising events - the KeyBank/Sweetser Sold on
Kids Auction and Sweetser/Prime Motor Group Golf Classic. These events raised over $135,000 and would not be possible
without support from our lead sponsors, KeyBank and Ira Rosenberg’s Prime Motor Group, in addition to so many others.
Thank you for helping Sweetser provide services to nearly 13,000 children, adults and families in Maine who depend on our
programs. Your continued support helps make it all possible.

Client Profile: The Ferguson/Long Family
Michael and Colleen Ferguson were well aware of the various ways Sweetser helps
children, since their son Christopher was attending The School at Sweetser. They
were not familiar with how Sweetser also helps families, until they experienced the
High Fidelity “HiFi” Wraparound Program.
According to Amy Ackroyd, clinical supervisor at Sweetser, “The High Fidelity
Wraparound Program is a process adopted by the State of Maine to work with entire
families to address identified needs in a way that is appropriate to the family instead
of in a way that dictates what is appropriate.”
Program facilitators work with families to help identify their needs, as individuals
and as a family, and then help them find the resources that are available to get their
needs met. “Often times when a child is acting out, the family tends to focus on the
child’s behavior and not on what might be going on within the family that might be
causing the behavior,” says Ackroyd. “This is how Wraparound helps. When a family
is more stable, children are more stable.”
Michael and Colleen Ferguson, Christopher
Long and sister Kayla.
The Ferguson’s were referred to the Wraparound Program in 2008 by Sweetser school staff. Some needs that were met included
financial support and helping Michael obtain his GED. The family celebrated their completion of the program in September
and now have new skills that help them cope better as a family.
“We have grown and developed in a positive way by using the team approach and principles of HiFi. Our family comes together
to approach the daily problems associated with raising children, and we solve these problems with communication and our
support system,” said Michael. “We always eat together at the table and find that the evening meal is an excellent opportunity
to talk about the day’s activities and outline tomorrow’s agenda.”
In addition to the family’s success, Christopher was named Student of the Year at the Sweetser School.
Employee Profile: Dave Puff
If anyone at Sweetser was asked to define the word dedication, they wouldn’t
have to look further than the man that has been both teacher and farm
manager on the Saco campus for the past 21 years. Whether it’s commuting
108 miles round trip each day from his home in Arrowsic, or sharing his
knowledge and passion for all aspects of life on a farm, Dave Puff is indeed
dedicated to the job he loves.
“It has been an honor to have this position for so many years,” says Puff.
“This farm gives so much to so many people.”
Dave Puff, Farm Manager
The farm at Sweetser is part of the Experiential Learning Program where
students have an opportunity to challenge themselves in ways they might not
otherwise be able to. Puff and his staff teach students everything from caring
for the animals at the farm to outdoor survival skills. They grow their own
vegetables and tap trees to produce maple syrup. And along the way, Puff
instills in his students a solid work ethic, good manners and respect for those
around them.
“Kids want to know where their boundaries are,” explains Puff. “We don’t let anything slide because in life, in the working world,
you always need to give your best.”
Puff has led with a firm and loving hand, creating memories for children that will last a lifetime.

New Medical Director
at Sweetser
Medical Director, Dr. Marc Kaplan
Sweetser is celebrating a new role
for an old friend. Marc Israel
Kaplan, DO, joined the staff at
Sweetser in August of 1997 after
completing his residency in child
and adolescent psychiatry at Maine
Medical Center. Dr. Kaplan has
played a major role in integrating
psychiatric expertise into the array
of safety net mental health and
co-occurring disorder services
provided by Sweetser.
Dr. Kaplan has assisted Sweetser in developing family-focused
residential treatment services for severely emotionally disturbed
children, and their families. He has participated in the development of crisis units that successfully divert both children and
adults from costly stays in hospitals. In addition, Dr. Kaplan has
played a key role in keeping outpatient medication management
services running smoothly.
In October 2009, Sweetser President & CEO Carl Pendleton,
announced that Dr. Kaplan accepted the Medical Director position.
“In these difficult times for providers of mental health services in
Maine, there is no one I would rather be adding to our leadership
team than Marc Kaplan,” said Pendleton. “Marc has proven to be
a clinical leader and I look forward to working with him as we
plan innovative ways to serve Maine’s most vulnerable children,
adults and families.”
Our Mission
To provide quality treatment, support and hope to
children, adults and families through a network of
mental health, behavioral health and educational services.
