Proposed Adult Services Building and Donation Center at our Bryant Campus

What is B Town?

It is the unique corner of the world Civitan Services has called home for more than 50 years. We have always served Saline County as a whole, not just the city of Benton. We are building new facilities for the benefit of all of B Town. We will be able to continue to serve those in need from Benton, Bauxite, Bryant and Beyond...

The proposed addition to the Bryant Campus for Civitan Services new Adult Services building will be located on S. Reynolds Road at 4TH. Street in Bryant, Arkansas. The new classroom/administration and The Civitan Donation Center buildings will be located adjacent to the existing Civitan Plaza.

This grouping will provide a synergistic campus serving the greater Saline County community. The 18,900 square foot classroom/ administration building will contain three large general purpose classrooms as well as a large art instruction studio. In addition, there will be a classroom equipped with a residential kitchen, washer/dryer and home furnishings dedicated to the instruction of independent life skills. The physical/occupational therapy space will also serve as a possible FEMA safe room for the campus. Adjacent to the therapy space is a personal care suite for client care. The spacious dining room easily seats 72 diners who will be served from the new commercial kitchen. The dining room will also serve as the client cuing area for bus and family pick-ups and drop-offs. The administrative component houses thirteen offices, a conference room, and a room for file storage, as well as reception and waiting areas.

The 4,700 square foot Civitan Donation Center is located adjacent to the new classroom/administration building and the two are linked by two covered canopies. The placement of the two buildings along with the two covered walkways forms a private courtyard that can be secured for clients to enjoy the outdoors safely. The classrooms along the south side of the building along with the dining room look upon the courtyard. The Civitan Donation Center is also designed to be transformed into future classrooms that potentially would have views to the courtyard. It also has a drop-off point for the community as well as a loading area for The Civitan Truck. Immediately adjacent to the drop-off zone is a cleaning station for donated items.

New paved parking will be provided for staff and visitors and the current exposed perimeter drainage along the two frontage roads will routed to below grade culverts along a new sidewalk as per city standards.
