About this organization
Mission
To provide a place where people with intellectual disabilities are nurtured and valued, a place where they will be engaged in all aspects of their lives, learning and working alongside lifelong friends, family and members of the community.
About
The Village Community is a non-profit organization, founded in 2013 by parents of young adults with intellectual disabilities, with the purpose of providing high quality, engaging experiences to our members so that they can continue to live happy, healthy, productive lives. We have a commitment to building relationships with members, member families, staff, and the broader community. As part of this mission, we serve as a partner with University of Iowa medical, nursing, and graduate school programs, providing on-site learning and practicum opportunities to students interested in working with this population in a professional capacity. In 2018 we renewed our certifications from both CARF International and the State of Iowa Department of Human Services for the maximum 3 year terms. Our full-day program, which was launched in December of 2015, has operated at full capacity in 2018 and now has a waiting list. Our Special Olympics delegation and participate in local, regional and state competitions. We have been recognized as a thought leader and continue to provide consultation to stakeholders and community partners on our model of service provision that has significantly less overhead and administrative costs than other similar service providers. This has translated to low staff turnover and a more positive member experience. We utilize best practices for service provision as well as business management to ensure we are sustainable over the long term. As a result, our financial performance once again exceeded our expectations in 2018 despite significant cuts to Medicaid reimbursable services and the transition to privatized Medicaid within the state. We continue to work with state legislators to help them understand the long-term impact these changes have had on our members and our program. In 2019 we will continue to works towards building our reserve funds to ensure long term sustainability during uncertain times and times of transition.
