COMMUNITY SERVICES<br />

Annual Report 2011<br />

Helping people reach for their own <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> since 1975!


NORTH STAR <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Services</strong>: Year in Review from Executive Director<br />

Dear Friends <strong>of</strong> <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Services</strong>,<br />

I am very pleased to bring you our annual report for fiscal year 2011. Once<br />

again, our services have helped the people we serve realize potential, pursue dreams,<br />

and enjoy life. I am so very proud <strong>of</strong> the dedicated, compassionate, and highly<br />

knowledgeable staff members that provide essential services to hundreds <strong>of</strong> people<br />

throughout <strong>North</strong>east Iowa every day.<br />

Mark Witmer<br />

Executive Director<br />

Some highlights <strong>of</strong> our services this year include performing arts productions in Waterloo and<br />

Waverly. Our day habilitation services program in Waterloo known as Key VII produced the musical Willie<br />

Wonka and the Chocolate Factory to a large audience at the Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts Center.<br />

This play was truly the highlight <strong>of</strong> the year for many <strong>of</strong> the people we serve and our staff members.<br />

Our Waverly Center day habilitation program produced a Christmas musical adapted from<br />

the famous Charles Dickens story A Christmas Carol. The popularity <strong>of</strong> the Waverly Center Christmas<br />

productions necessitated that we move to a larger venue. We were so very pleased to have St. Mary’s<br />

Catholic Church host our Christmas program this year to an audience <strong>of</strong> over 200 people.<br />

These performances give the people we serve opportunities<br />

that many have never experienced before. And, <strong>of</strong>ten we discover<br />

talents that have been hidden for a lifetime. Some participants find new<br />

ways <strong>of</strong> expressing themselves; others simply come out <strong>of</strong> their shells.<br />

Everyone enjoys participating and everyone is given lots <strong>of</strong> kudos for their<br />

performances.<br />

One <strong>of</strong> the participants who rarely talks has no problem acting in the<br />

play, saying his lines, and even singing, as part <strong>of</strong> his performance. Another<br />

actor showed <strong>of</strong>f his dancing skills while another sang so beautifully that<br />

everyone (fellow actors as well as the audience) was amazed. Yet another<br />

participant used his sign language skills to give people with hearing<br />

difficulties an opportunity to follow the action throughout the production.<br />

These performance opportunities are only <strong>of</strong> a couple <strong>of</strong> activities<br />

that I chose to highlight in this letter. However, as you read our annual<br />

report, you will discover that people benefit from <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> services in<br />

many, many ways every day.<br />

On behalf <strong>of</strong> the board <strong>of</strong> directors, I thank you for your continued<br />

interest and support <strong>of</strong> <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Services</strong> over this past year.<br />

We are looking forward to many more years <strong>of</strong> providing services that<br />

empower each person to realize potential, pursue dreams, and enjoy life.<br />

Thanks again for all you do in support <strong>of</strong> <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong>.<br />

NORTH STAR <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Services</strong>: Highlights<br />

At <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> we try to help our consumers to develop “natural supports and community<br />

relationships.” But, what is natural support? A natural support is a relationship with someone that an<br />

individual chooses to have in their life - someone who is not paid, who doesn’t also have a disability, and<br />

is based on common interests (ie: a “typical” community member). Natural supports give us all a sense <strong>of</strong><br />

belonging since we know that others just want to be with us because they like us. These are two stories<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> consumers who have successfully developed natural supports.<br />

Meet Neal Norland who grew up near Cylinder, Iowa (60 miles west <strong>of</strong> Clear<br />

Lake). Neal, who has cerebral palsy, began receiving <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> services in August <strong>of</strong><br />

2010, when he came to Cedar Falls to attend UNI.<br />

Neal is now a sophomore and is taking general education classes while he<br />

tries to choose a major, but he is interested in the ministry and is good at statistics<br />

and web-site building. He lives in the dorms and uses <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> services to help him<br />

with daily living tasks that he is physically unable to do for himself. <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> staff<br />

has helped him develop natural supports on campus, particularly within the dining services. This<br />

allows him to eat whenever he wants to, not only when there is staff available.<br />

It was difficult for him to leave home by himself for the first time, but Neal has been up to<br />

the challenge, overcoming many obstacles in his way (including a broken down wheelchair and two<br />

illnesses). He studies hard, gets very good grades, and has been successful. These are a few <strong>of</strong> his<br />

successes: Joining campus groups, attending all kinds <strong>of</strong> Panther sporting events, using the Wellness<br />

Center on campus, and making new friends that he enjoys hanging out with. According to <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

Service Coordinator, Jenny Allen, “Neal is a great guy and has accomplished some amazing things!”<br />

Meet Jill Meyer, who is 29-years old, lives in Shell Rock, IA and has been receiving services from<br />

<strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> in Waverly for more than ten years, and her friend Anastasia Lundt. Anastasia, who grew up in<br />

Pocahontas, Iowa, is currently a Wartburg College senior majoring in biochemistry. She met Jill through<br />

the Best Buddies program her freshman year. Best Buddies is an organization that pairs people with<br />

intellectual disabilities with college students. Through these friendships the “buddies” are encouraged to<br />

be self-advocates and community leaders, all the while making lifelong friendships.<br />

Jill and Anastasia try to get together at least twice a month. They like to<br />

go out to eat, and they both name Texas Roadhouse as their favorite. Jill says<br />

that Anastasia “likes to watch her bowl.” When they get together, they also<br />

enjoy watching movies, baking cookies, or simply lounging around watching<br />

T.V.<br />

When asked what Anastasia likes best about Jill, she said, “her smile and<br />

sense <strong>of</strong> humor.” She wrote that being friends with Jill has taught her that, “the simple things in life are<br />

the most important. Laughter is always the best medicine, but it never hurts to supplement with good<br />

food!” When asked about Anastasia, Jill said, “Been friends a long time! She’s nice, she’s fun, she’s smart.”<br />

Melissa Hovenga, <strong>Community</strong> Living Specialist at <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong>, describes the relationship. “Anastasia<br />

brightens Jill’s day every time she calls, and when they do something together. I’m sure this friendship<br />

will continue for life!”

10. Therapeutic Garden: Although it is ever-changing and will always be a work in<br />

progress, the major work on the garden is complete. Through a grant from Green<br />

Scene, we were able to plant several additional trees; including apple, pear, and<br />

cherry trees. Our consumers planted an abundance <strong>of</strong> donated hosta and several<br />

people added wonderful garden sculptures to the space.<br />

9. <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> participants give back. Although we are the beneficiaries <strong>of</strong> the time<br />

and talents <strong>of</strong> numerous volunteers, <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> turns the table and gives back to the<br />

community almost every week. In Waterloo our consumers helped out at places like<br />

Friendship Village, NE Iowa Food Bank, the Humane Society, greeted RAGBRAI riders,<br />

and rang bells for the Salvation Army. We collected school supplies for area children<br />

for both fall and spring semesters and sent care packages to soldiers in Afghanistan.<br />

In Waverly many people were the recipients <strong>of</strong> monthly “give backs” - including<br />

homemade treats, crafts, and flowers.<br />

8. Jeff Schott, custodian at <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> for more than 13 years, was given the Bill<br />

Sackter Self-Advocate award from the State <strong>of</strong> Iowa Arc. The award is named for Bill<br />

Sackter who was fundamental in the nation’s “self-advocacy movement” <strong>of</strong> the early<br />

1960’s. In a congratulatory letter, Senator Tom Harkin wrote, “Jeff, you are being<br />

honored with the Self-Advocate <strong>of</strong> the Year award because you are a shining example<br />

<strong>of</strong> the unyielding dedication, boundless persistence, and confident determination it<br />

takes to reach your goals.”<br />

7. George lobby’s for the change he wants to see in the world. George, who resides<br />

in Cedar Falls, earned a Master’s degree in public policy in 2008 and has received<br />

supported community living services for 11 years. He is instrumental in the Cedar<br />

Valley Arc’s self-advocacy activities. He helped to organized two trips to Des Moines<br />

to lobby lawmakers against cuts in Medicaid and to maintain the system <strong>of</strong> residential<br />

care facility/nursing home inspections. On the local level, in March he was one <strong>of</strong><br />

several who met with the Waterloo City Council to discuss safety concerns over snow<br />

removal at city bus stops.<br />

6. Neal, who is currently a college student at the University <strong>of</strong> <strong>North</strong>ern Iowa, has<br />

made remarkable strides towards being able to live independently.<br />

(Complete story on previous page.)<br />

5. Lavina, who lives in Marshalltown, turned 87 in June. She lived for 20 years at<br />

what was then known as Woodward State Hospital, and then in family life homes.<br />

But, one <strong>of</strong> Lavina’s dreams was to live in a home <strong>of</strong> her own, so with <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong>’s help<br />

she did just that - at age 80! She is happy in her apartment and enjoys living with her<br />

49-pound cat, Wayne.<br />

4. Brian from Mason City, who came to <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> in December 2008, had been<br />

struggling with issues related to a chronic mental illness - including multiple<br />

hospitalizations. With <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong>’s help he has been able to manage his symptoms<br />

and has not been in the hospital for nearly three years. Because <strong>of</strong> his<br />

progress, our services have been reduced to only ten hours per month!


NORTH STAR <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Services</strong>: Highlights<br />

3. Donna from Mason City has been receiving services for more than five years. She has been able to move<br />

from a residential care facility to her own apartment. Donna has made great strides for herself. She is now<br />

able to manage her spending, effectively problem-solve, and has learned to manage anxiety and stress without<br />

going to the hospital. Donna can now manage on only ten hours <strong>of</strong> services per month!<br />

2. Waverly has Christmas Spirit. 200 friends, family, and community members were in attendance as<br />

<strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong>’s Waverly Center held its fifth annual Christmas program, an adaptation <strong>of</strong> “A Christmas Carol,” on<br />

December 7, 2010. The program has become so well-attended, that it necessitated moving the performance<br />

to a much larger venue - St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Waverly. The program featured performances, singing,<br />

and music by <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> participants. Not only did they perform the story, they sang several holiday songs<br />

and the Waverly <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> Bell Choir performed.<br />

ANd... the NuMber oNe success At <strong>North</strong> stAr this yeAr wAs:<br />

1. Willy Wonka: A world <strong>of</strong> pure imagination. On May 11, 2011 at the Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts<br />

Center in Cedar Falls, more than 1,800 lucky audience members were treated to a wonderful muscial theatre<br />

performance directed by volunteer, Greg Holt. Sixty-four <strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> actors, along with seven community<br />

volunteer actors, brought the world <strong>of</strong> Willy Wonka to life. The audience laughed, sang along to old favorite<br />

songs like “The Candy Man” and “The Oompa Loompa Song.” At the end there was a standing ovation! The<br />

project was a culmination <strong>of</strong> many months <strong>of</strong> hard work and included sets, props, and costumes created by<br />

<strong>North</strong> <strong>Star</strong> staff, participants, and volunteers.<br />

In collaboration between Newel Post and UNI Sculpture I students, led by Assistant Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Erica<br />

Voss, 15 individuals who attend Newel Post Adult Day <strong>Services</strong> got to see their ideas represented in a 3-D<br />

sculpture. These art pieces were showcased in the lobby <strong>of</strong> the Gallagher<br />

Bluedorn Performing Arts Center on May 11 th , during the Willy Wonka play.<br />

The UNI students were commissioned to interpret a Newel Post<br />

participant’s drawing as a sculpture. The drawings were created during oneon-one<br />

interviews between the students and the participants in response to<br />

such questions as; “What makes you happiest?” or “What do you think is<br />

funny or makes you laugh?” The sculpture was then created by the student<br />

using materials that they created together by making felt from wool in<br />

colors selected by the Newel Post participant.<br />
