The Taft Community Room provides a social space for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, hosting such programs as POINT (Pursuing Our Independence Together) and a Supper Club social group. An all-volunteer effort, Pass It On Kid’s Kloset relies on donations of children’s clothes, diapers and strollers to pass on free of charge to families who cannot afford them. It clothed more than 1,000 local children in 2012.

“Roy's dedication to his community is inspiring and he has truly made Westchester a better place to live and work,” says Barry Kaplan, President, WJCS Board of Directors. “As a board member, businessman, philanthropist and advocate, his efforts on behalf of WJCS are so instrumental in helping the agency provide opportunities for 20,000 people annually, from pre-school children to frail older adults, to live successful, independent and dignified lives.  Roy Stillman and Stillman Property Management exemplify the value of public-private partnerships between the not-for-profit and business worlds in strengthening Westchester for all residents.”
