🌸 Spring Clean to Support Their Dreams! 🌸

Richie didn’t just find a job at Hy-Vee — he found confidence, connection, and a second family. 💚 Through One Vision’s Community Employment Services, Richie was matched with a role that fits his strengths and lets him thrive, staying active, building independence, and forming meaningful relationships.

Your donations and purchases at One Vision Thrift Store help fund programs that match people with jobs, provide coaching, and open doors to new opportunities. When you clean out your closet, you’re clearing the path for someone else’s goals — just like Richie’s. ✨

🎸 What a night to remember! Two of our One Vision friends had an absolute blast at the Johnny Cash concert at the Boman Fine Arts Center in Forest City. They even met some of the band members afterwards and connected with familiar faces from the community! Experiences like this remind us how beautiful community inclusion can be, bringing people together to share music, laughter, and meaningful connections.

💚 Thank you to the One Vision employees who helped make this opportunity possible!

🌸 Spring Clean to Support Their Dreams! 🌸

A trip to Colorado might seem simple for many — but for Jeff, it required planning, support, and problem-solving every step of the way. With guidance from a One Vision staff member, Jeff navigated flight delays, airport challenges, and accessibility hurdles — all to celebrate a family milestone and make memories that will last a lifetime. 💚

When you clean out your closet, you’re clearing the path for someone else’s goals. Every donation and purchase at One Vision Thrift Store helps people like Jeff explore, connect, and achieve their dreams. ✨

💚💙 March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month! 💙💚

This month, we celebrate the talents, contributions, and unique strengths of individuals with developmental disabilities, as well as the gifts they bring to our communities. 🏘️✨

Let’s remember to see people for all of their abilities, not just their challenges. True inclusion means welcoming everyone as whole individuals, valuing what they bring, and creating communities where everyone belongs. 🫶

When we focus on abilities, connection, and acceptance, our communities grow stronger and brighter for everyone. 🙌

At One Vision, we stand with and support people with disabilities to pursue their best life.

🎉 In celebration of National Leadership Day, we're proud to recognize the Executive Leadership Team and the leadership they provide in building a strong, mission-driven future for One Vision—one that supports people, invests in staff, and ensures long-term sustainability.

From championing innovation and thoughtful decision-making, to strengthening the infrastructure that keeps our organization running smoothly, to sharing our story and staying connected with the communities we serve, this team leads with both strategy and heart. They ensure our services remain rooted in quality and compassion, our mission is clearly communicated, and One Vision continues to grow stronger and more responsive every day. 💚

While each member of the Executive Leadership Team brings unique strengths, it is their shared commitment to mission alignment, collaboration, and stewardship that truly makes them a Leadership Team—one that continues to build One Vision with care, integrity, and optimism.
