CONNECTING TO COMMUNITY 2013 ANNUAL REPORT

OPPORTUNITY DEVELOPMENT CENTERS, INC.


TO OUR SUPPORTERS This year’s annual report is entitled “Connecting to Community”. At ODC, we are working toward that goal in all of our programs on a daily basis. ODC’s vision is “communities strengthened and enriched by the abilities and contributions of all members”, and we believe that each person has unique abilities and ideas to contribute to the workplace and the community. As we get to know the strengths and interests of each person we serve, we are able to make connections with employers, customers, organizations and other links to match the person with a job or other opportunity that best utilizes their skills and interests. In this annual report, we highlight stories of several individuals who are “connected to community” and succeeding in employment and a variety of other life activities. Each person’s journey is unique, and ODC works with each individual to determine the programs and experiences that will best help them to advance toward their work and life goals.

Pam Ross

ODC President

Our deepest thanks to all of our supporters. By partnering with ODC as an employer, customer, donor, employee or volunteer, you become a part of these success stories... and you are helping to build an inclusive community that values and welcomes the contributions of all members. We look forward to continuing to “connect to community” for years to come!

ODC’s Community Employment Program staff support individuals in obtaining and maintaining jobs within the community. We explore the person’s interests and evaluate their skills, then thoughtfully match their skills to an employer’s needs. We offer ongoing support to ensure that the relationship is successful for both employer and employee. ODC’s Center-Based Employment Programs offer a wide variety of work opportunities along with the level of training and support each person needs to perform their job. We adapt and modify jobs so that people at all levels of ability are able to participate and advance toward their personal goals, including employment in the community. ODC’s Day Services Program provides opportunities for adults with disabilities to benefit from a blend of skills training and community integrated activities such as art, cooking, computer training, money management, volunteering, community outings and current events classes. Many individuals who participate in our Day Services Program also work in our center-based or community employment programs.

INDIVIDUALS ODC assisted 594 individuals in Connecting to Community through employment training, job acquisition and retention, and participation in community activities, clubs and organizations.

Jeff Wichlacz, who received one of two ODC Personal Achievement Awards presented in 2013, has worked at Security Health Plan in Marshfield since January 2011. When Jeff came to ODC in 2009, he struggled with anxiety and depression and had been unable to work for nine long years. Slowly, with opportunities and support, he built his confidence and agreed to a temporary work opportunity at Security Health Plan. He excelled, and was eventually offered a position in January 2011. “I swear it must be three times a week that I look at the Security Health Plan building and think, ‘I can’t believe I’m 2013 Annual Report - Connecting to Community

price products, but his supervisor and lead worker quickly recognized his skills and abilities, and he began picking and packing items, preparing them for shipment and reorganizing the warehouse.

George Haskins was also a recipient of ODC’s 2013 Personal Achievement Award. In early 2013, with the assistance of ODC employment services staff, he joined an ODC work crew assigned to special projects at Manilla Gorilla, a fulfillment and distribution company located in Wisconsin Rapids, where he was ultimately hired. George was originally hired to unload trucks and

“A special friend sent me a card after hearing that I was receiving this award,” said Haskins. “She said she is so proud of me and that I have overcome so many things in life, but I didn’t let them bring me down. I looked at each obstacle as a challenge and said, ‘Yes, I can do that’! She also said, ‘Don’t ever let anyone tell you differently, and keep accomplishing great things.” 3


The number of ODC workers Connecting to Community through supported community employment rose from 58 in 2009 to 119 in 2013.

Church Mutual Insurance - Merrill | Dick Huseby, Vice President - Human Resources & Strategic Initiatives “Church Mutual has a history of working with people with disabilities, bringing in groups of individuals to work on the assembly of manuals. Daryl was one of those individuals, and he expressed a desire to work in an environment other than a group setting. We began to pursue hiring Daryl and other individuals within our work setting. We have over 680 employees at Church Mutual Insurance; Daryl works with 14 other individuals in our distribution center. His duties include assembling and mailing insurance policies, and other mail and scanning tasks. When I was originally asked to speak at a meeting regarding employing people with disabilities, I didn’t feel qualified. At that time, I really was an individual that had concerns about how to speak to or act with a person with disabilities. I now feel that I am more qualified because I know that you don’t have to have a special language or special way of interacting... they are the same as you or me. The people that work with Daryl now know that you don’t have to deal with individuals with disabilities in any unique or different way; they have the same emotions, and similar goals and objectives. Daryl has stepped out of his comfort zone and established himself as an individual here. We see him as we should see him, another employee doing a great job and being a part of the team. Daryl eats in our cafeteria, he uses our hallways... he is just another employee who works at Church Mutual that carries his weight. He destroys stereotypes of reliability and capability. I see him as very brave, to take on a world that can be difficult even for people without disabilities. He uses public transportation to get to work, sometimes has to navigate deep snow or rain in his wheelchair to get into the building, then he takes off his coat and starts the day. At

Daryl the end of day, he does the same thing all over again. I don’t know if all of us would have the courage to do that every day. He is an inspiration to us. I would like to compliment ODC staff; because of them, we understood the program before getting involved. We had very nice introductions to the employment candidates we were asked to consider, and a chance to measure their background against opportunities we had to offer. We never felt pressure to hire. We had the chance to consider and follow up with questions. The

“...we see that work brings us dignity - we become a functioning part of society.” initial and follow-up training for our hires was wonderful, and all of our questions were answered when we had them. If you’re considering working with ODC, you don’t have to feel pressured. Just be an open-minded person with an open job position. The whole process, from bringing candidates in, and training and supporting them, was a much better experience than hiring off the street! There’s nothing mysterious about the program; it’s a very efficient and controlled process, and there’s no reason not to pursue it. I think as we look at all employees, regardless of their situation, we see that work brings us dignity - we become a functioning part of society. Work brings us a paycheck that allows us to help others and be good to ourselves as well. It is important for us as employers to give people that come to us a place to begin. I use a quote from Special Olympics: “All I ask is that of being equal at the starting line. Where I finish is up to me... just give me a place to start.”

Tractor Supply According to Jan Villeneuve, ODC Employment Resource Agent, William’s co-workers at Tractor Supply in Wisconsin Rapids don’t just like William, they love him! “They all say he has really blossomed,” said Jan. “His personality and his sense of humor... he continues to impress them every day.”

William was hired at Tractor Supply in March 2013, after ODC had arranged a four week temporary employment trial during which he really impressed his new employer. According to William, his job now includes “ just about everything” – unloading inventory from trucks onto shelves and pallets, and keeping shelves stocked and floors clean. He also excels at assembling products such as snow blowers and other equipment. “If something needs to get done, I just do it,” said William. “I don’t need to ask the manager, ‘what should I do next?’... I just do it!” “William has been a real joy to have here at the store,” said Matt Van Dyne, General Manager at Tractor Supply. “He’s integrated so well with the team. He does a wonderful job for us and we really couldn’t ask for more in an employee.”

“William picked up the cash register very, very well – better than some other employees who have worked for me in the past,” said Matt. “He did it just as well as he does everything else.” “Right out of the gate,” he said, “William was taking care of customers and not just waiting for them to ask for assistance but actually engaging them. That was a nice thing to see.” Matt is not only impressed by William, but also by the ODC staff who have partnered with both employee and employer to ensure that the relationship is successful. According to Matt, screening potential employees is much easier with the ODC team at your side.

William

William agrees. “I love them all as family, and that’s how we all consider it,” said William. “We’re all one big team. It’s not just another job where I say, ‘Oh, I have to go to work.’ We just help out everyone that needs help – each other and the customers.”

“At first I was like, ‘I do not want to do the cash register... I’ve never done that, ever!’” said William. “When I started working on it, I made a couple of mistakes here and there but you learn from your mistakes. After two or three times on the register, I was a pro!”

“The employment candidates they bring in are very genuine, hardworking people who want to find a place to fit in,” said Matt. “William is so positive-minded, and that’s more than a little contagious.” “We have definitely benefited by hiring William and by partnering with ODC,” he said. “There is nothing you are going to lose, and you will gain an employee you can count on.”

According to Jan, Matt went out on a limb for William because he was so impressed with William’s ability to do assembly work and the way he interacted with his customers and the rest of the Tractor Supply team. He had, however, no experience on the cash register, something that is normally a prerequisite for hire.

149

Connecting to Community was made possible with jobs provided by 149 Central Wisconsin employers.

CENTRAL WISCONSIN EMPLOYERS

Hotel Marshfield - Marshfield | Cory Latourell, General ODC staff contacted us about their community employment program, we knew right off the bat that this was something we wanted to be a part of. At Hotel Marshfield, five key words support our mission, and one of them is ‘community’. This program was right in line with our commitment to the Marshfield community.

Manager “When

Alyssa brings a smile to the face of everyone she comes in contact with. She is upbeat, and happy to do any task we give her. She is thrilled to be at work every day and is someone you can depend on to do the job well. Hotel Marshfield is all about hospitality and great service, and she brings that to the table without even trying! Everything Alyssa touches is right there, in front of our guest’s eyes and it contributes to the guest experience. She performs so many smaller tasks that are a really big deal to us. They are always done well, and we can count on that.” Alyssa is a 2013 graduate of Project Search who currently works part-time at Hotel Marshfield. (see page 10)

Culver’s - Wisconsin Rapids | Brad Prohl, Co-Owner / Operator “We were approached by ODC’s employment program about someone who was ‘ready to get out there’, and we met Kevin. He was a really nice individual, and I felt he was right for what we needed here. The process of working with ODC staff went really well. Kevin had his job coach with him at first, but he picked up on tasks really fast. He’s a very bright individual and really enjoys delivering food to the guests and keeping things clean. He always mentions how much he likes working here.

Kevin works on his own now. ODC staff come by each week to make sure things are going well, but Kevin is fully capable of doing what we ask of him. He has a positive attitude every day, and always has a smile on his face. He likes to ‘poke my ribs’ about the Green Bay Packers; I am a huge Packer fan and he always chooses the other team! Everybody gets along great with Kevin – he’s very willing to help out. If anyone asks him to take care of a task, he jumps right in there. If you’re thinking about working with ODC, give it a chance! They will help you find a way to accomplish what you’re trying to achieve for your business.” Kevin was referred to ODC in January 2005 by Nekoosa High School for an assessment and later, a work experience. After graduation in 2006, he returned to ODC to broaden his knowledge and skills by working in ODC’s Hidden Creek Kitchens and on the production floor, where individuals produce goods and services for the area business community and beyond. He also “tested the community employment waters” by participating in an ODC work crew on site at Manilla Gorilla in Wisconsin Rapids. He now works part-time at Culver’s and continues to work part-time at ODC as well.

Lang Furniture - Marshfield | Lyle Lang, President “We started working with supported employment 15 years ago and have had a wonderful experience the entire time. I have always said that the individuals with disabilities who have worked here add a certain peace to the working environment. It continues to amaze me how these workers enjoy their work and take ownership of their jobs and the company. Everyone is always watching out for one another, and it’s a wonderful thing to witness.

Philip

Opportunity Development Centers, Inc.


It seems cliché, but you really do get more out of working with ODC than you put into it. The individuals we hire, like Philip, add so much more to the work place than production. The staff at ODC are first class and great to work with.” Phil began his journey with ODC’s assistance in 2008. Because he had very little successful work history at that time, an assessment was used to determine his strengths and weaknesses, and for a period of time, Phil worked in ODC’s wood manufacturing department. He became very excited about the work and, after some time, accepted a temporary work experience with Lang Furniture which ultimately became permanent, part-time employment.

Renaissance Learning - Wisconsin Rapids | Nancy Oltesvig, Facilities Supervisor “Working with Tim is a pleasure. He is an employee that is eager to work, and eager to learn. He brings a smile to everyone that talks with him. It is also a pleasure working with ODC; their staff are always available if we have any questions. We so much appreciate having ODC in our community and within our company. Having a person with a disability working in your company just makes everyone more aware that these individuals can do things just like anyone else. They can do anything they put their minds to... Tim has shown us that. If someone were to ask me about hiring through ODC, the first thing I would suggest they do is take a tour of ODC. They will see the work that people with disabilities do, and how ODC staff adapt jobs so individuals can do them. Go and visit, and see, and talk... you’ll find out that people with disabilities can do it, that they can be productive in your business.” In 2008, Tim came to ODC during his senior year at Nekoosa High School for a school-to-work assessment. He returned in 2010 for a supported employment assessment: ODC services staff assessed his skills and identified areas of need during a temporary work experience in the community. He returned to ODC’s work center to develop his skills and increase his confidence, which was an impediment to success at the time. In 2012, Tim was hired part-time at both The UPS Store and Renaissance Learning, and he continues both jobs.

Tina

2013 Annual Report - Connecting to Community

Stoney River Assisted Living - Marshfield | Tiffany “Tina has worked for us since August of 2013. It’s amazing to see how hard she works and how proud she is of her work. It rubs off on all of the staff; they might come in having a bad day, but everyday Tina is the same, delightful person! She makes everyone want to work harder, and makes them appreciate what they’re doing and what they have.

Hainz, Administrator

Tina also makes a difference for our residents. She is so happy and bubbly that it rubs off on them and our visitors. I would tell anyone that I absolutely recommend partnering with ODC... it’s a wonderful opportunity for both employee and employer. You couldn’t ask for more positive, caring people than ODC staff, and they are very receptive to any changes that need to be made or anything that the employee needs to work on. Anyone who hasn’t had the opportunity to work with ODC should absolutely do it.” Tina has worked at ODC’s work center since 1999. She was extremely shy and fearful of the unknown, but with assistance from the ODC Employment Resource staff, she slowly warmed to the idea of venturing into community work experiences. ODC’s center-based training program gave Tina the opportunity to work in a supportive environment where she gained the skills and confidence she needed to seek employment in a community setting. She now works part-time at Stoney River Assisted Living and continues to enjoy her job at ODC.

EACH PERSON IS VALUABLE AND HAS UNIQUE ABILITIES AND IDEAS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE WORKPLACE AND THE COMMUNITY. 7


Day Services | Stacey Schultz & Deb Kehrberg, Community Life - Day Services Managers, Marshfield and Wisconsin Rapids “Integration and participation...

the theme of our Day Services program has certainly become Connecting to Community! Our volunteer program has grown over the past year to include: - a weekly Home Delivered Meals route and monthly tray favors for meal recipients - delivering backpacks for the youth N.O.W. program - creating centerpieces for Centralia Center tables - collaborating with the Marshfield Kiwanis Club to deliver flowers each month to residents celebrating birthdays at Bethel Living Center - ringing bells for the Salvation Army - doing laundry for The Neighborhood Table program - stocking shelves at the St. Vincent de Paul food pantry - socializing animals and helping with clean-up at the South Wood County Humane Society - watering outdoor flower gardens for the City of Marshfield - participating in the Adopt a Park clean-up projects at Columbia Park and the Wisconsin Rapids skate park.

When we aren’t busy volunteering, we are teaching people how to access the community and become as independent as possible. Individuals are learning the steps it takes to become involved in community based activities including their cost, transportation options and many other considerations. Our goal is to introduce individuals to new opportunities, make connections and build relationships with other members of the community.”

INDIVIDUALS Connecting to Community meant that 107 individuals had the opportunity to participate in Day Services programming.

SUCCESS IS LIMITLESS WITH CREATIVITY AND AN OPEN MIND.

3‚300 HOURS

Dominique

Lucas

ODC’s Hidden Creek Kitchens advanced ODC workers forward in their goal of Connecting to Community with 3,300 hours of employment training and real-life experience serving community customers.

ODC’s Work Center Dominique is a very busy woman. She works part-time, four days per week at the ODC work center, and three mornings per week at Pomp’s Tire. And that’s just the way she likes it. “I love getting out and going to work,” said Dominique. “I like working with the guys at Pomp’s and they like working with me. At ODC, I like working on different jobs that I’ve never worked on before.” For Dominique, ODC’s work center provides reinforcement and strengthening of her good work habits which keep her successful at Pomp’s Tire. She also benefits from the stability and structure of working in both settings, and enjoys being productive. According to Dominique, “It’s good to go to work!”

326 INDIVIDUALS

Employment training within ODC’s work centers moved 326 individuals forward in their goal of Connecting to Community. 2013 Annual Report - Connecting to Community

Hidden Creek Kitchens Attention to detail, focus, patience, teamwork, self-confidence... all skills and abilities learned through experience, and necessary for success in the world of work. According to Toni Koeshall, ODC Kitchen Job Facilitator, Lucas is an ideal example of someone for whom training in ODC’s Hidden Creek Kitchens has helped to create a transformation. “Lucas started working in our commercial kitchen in late summer 2013,” said Toni. “He just blew us away. We would show him something once and he would absorb it and keep doing it. He is always pitching in when he sees jobs that need to be done.” Lucas came to ODC during his senior year as part of a school-to-work program at Nekoosa High School. After graduating in 2012, he came back to ODC’s work center to participate in a variety of training opportunities. A portion of his training experience is taking place in Hidden Creek Kitchens, where he now works part-time. “Lucas was so shy when he started working in the kitchen,” said Toni. “Throughout the months of providing customer service, he has really opened up and actually strikes up conversations with all of our customers, both those of us who work at ODC and members of the public who come to purchase our food.” “I learned that there are so many different things to do in the kitchen,” said Lucas, “like working the cash register, cleaning, dishwashing, stocking, and making sandwiches and cookies. And customer service is most important.” Lucas is also working at ODC’s work center on the production floor, and at a seasonal job in the warehouse at Manilla Gorilla in Wisconsin Rapids. “Working at ODC has definitely made me feel more comfortable and confident about working in the community,” said Lucas. “I want to thank my parents for giving me a start by helping me get a job at ODC, and all who helped me get where I am now.” 9


Project SEARCH Transitioning from school to the world of work can be a struggle for anyone. But Alyssa had an edge – Project SEARCH.

“Her interest in housekeeping became the focus of her job development after graduation,” said Mary Blanchard, ODC Employment Resource Manager and coordinator for Project SEARCH students. “The Hotel Marshfield opened its doors just about the time she graduated, and we thought it would be a perfect fit!”

Alyssa

Alyssa, a 2013 graduate of the Project SEARCH program, spent her final year in high school focusing entirely on learning the skills needed to be successful at work and participating in internships at Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield, where the Project SEARCH program is based. Alyssa’s internships included time working in the Child Care Center of Saint Joseph’s Hospital and Marshfield Clinic, and in the hospital’s laundry and housekeeping departments.

STRONG COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SUCCESS.

Alyssa was ultimately hired to work 12 hours per week in the hotel’s housekeeping department. She has since been given responsibilities in the hotel kitchen, which increased her time to 20 hours per week. “Project SEARCH was responsible for the more mature Alyssa we see today,” said Mary. “She was always energetic and positive, but her dependability and her understanding of the expectations of employers - these are the areas in which she’s really grown.” The first Project SEARCH program in Marshfield was initiated by the Marshfield School District for the 2011-2012 school year. The four students in that graduating class are all working successfully in community settings. Of the six individuals graduating from the 2012-2013 program, four are successfully employed and two are actively seeking employment. Seven students are enrolled in the 2013-14 program. The Project SEARCH model was developed in 1996 at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital by Nurse J. Erin Riehle. The program is worldwide and has grown from one to 150 programs across 42 states and four countries. There are five Project SEARCH programs in Wisconsin, including the program in Marshfield. The Marshfield School District provides funding for a classroom instructor, Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital provides on-site classroom and internship opportunities, the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) provides funding for ODC job coaching services, and CCCW funds on-going employment supports as individuals obtain jobs after completion of the program.

Sheanda ODC Work Crews Sheanda is just one of the 41 individuals who participated in ODC work crews in 2013. Work crews meet the project needs of area businesses, providing on-site services at the business location and giving many individuals the opportunity to take that “first step” toward community employment in a safe, structured setting. Many individuals participated in more than one work crew. “Work crews are a great way for individuals to try a new work experience in a comfortable setting, with a small group of people that they know,” said Ann Lepak, ODC Employment Resource Manager. “They are also a great way for employers to see first-hand the talents of our workers!” According to Lepak, this first-hand knowledge has led to the direct hires of six work crew employees: three at WOW Logistics, two at Manilla Gorilla and one at Express Recycling.

Kwik Trip, Inc., recipient of ODC’s 2013 Employer of the Year Award, hired ODC employment candidates to fill retail helper positions in seven Central Wisconsin stores in only one year. This newly-created position is customized for individuals with disabilities based on their skills, abilities, and interests. The organization provides complete initial and on-going training, and utilizes ODC job coaches to assist with longer-term training and support needs. Retail helpers receive the same benefits as all of their co-workers, including a generous profit sharing program.

Krystal

“At Kwik Trip, it will never be about what people can’t do, it’s about what they can do,” said Steve Wrobel, public relations at Kwik Trip, Inc. “The retail helper program is really an extension of that philosophy.” Kwik Trip - Marshfield | Megan “I was approached by ODC to consider hiring through their community employment program. They gave me some information and it really got me thinking … they made me feel so comfortable in voicing any concerns I had, and reassured me that there were no questions that I couldn’t ask.”

Schlinsog, Store Leader

My biggest concern at the time was that my co-workers would be hesitant, so ODC staff

attended one of our staff meetings to answer any questions that others might have; they explained things so well and really made us clear in what to expect. It was amazing how much my co-workers wanted to do this – it was unanimous! They all agreed that there are things at work that we look at and say, ‘I wish I had time to do that’, but those things never get done. They also wanted to help make a difference in someone’s life. Krystal is amazing! After I met her, I had no doubt about what we would do. Her attitude is contagious... she comes to work every day with so much excitement and happiness. She has a thirst for knowledge, a willingness to learn and try new things. She is a perfect fit!" Krystal came to ODC for an assessment in 2009. She had a strong desire to work but lacked an understanding of basic work concepts and needed improvement in social skills. Through prevocational training in ODC’s work center and participation in Day Services programming, those skills improved and she went on to take part in a community-based supported employment assessment. After exploring job opportunities and participating in work trials, Krystal was hired by Kwik Trip on a part-time basis. She continues to work part-time in ODC’s work center as well.

217 Connecting to Community resulted in 217 work experiences, hires, and supported employment job retentions.

Brett

The City of Marshfield was recipient of ODC’s 2013 Partnership Award. Three ODC employment candidates have been hired by the city within the last year, the first of whom was hired to work in both the information technology and finance departments. Brett Kingston was later hired as an employee in the information technology department, and Josh Follen has taken a parking enforcement position with the Marshfield Police Department. “Going forward, we hope that this is just the start of things to come,” said Steve Barg, City of Marshfield administrator. “We would like to see more individuals being placed with the city and doing quality work the way these three have done in the past year. We’re just so grateful to have a connection with an agency like ODC... what a wonderful thing for the City of Marshfield to have ODC here. It’s a win-win for everyone, and it’s an exciting thing to be a part of.” 2013 Annual Report - Connecting to Community
