For this reason, we would like to call this report Faces of The Arc because their achievements are the best evidence of our efforts. BARB GOETTIG, PRESIDENT In this report you will meet some of the Faces of The Arc that have been our inspiration, helping us lead the way to: • Expand housing for individuals with disabilities in the Quad Cities Area. • Work with area employers to open doors to individuals with disabilities and gain access to a vital pool of valued employees. • Provide crucial services to families at every stage of life and expand access to community-based services that are designed to promote and support individuals interests. You will meet Cassandra who has expanded her horizons and gaining new skills while living at her new group home. You will meet Kim who retained his job, a source of pride and income, after his employer transferred a contract. You will meet John who is thriving because of his newfound skills in managing his autonomy in the community. MICHAEL GLANZ, EXEC. DIR The Arc of the Quad Cities Area is honored to be an integral part of their lives and many others. Through the Faces of The Arc, we hope you enjoy learning about how we touch the lives of individuals with intellectual and other disabilities everyday. We want to thank you for coming along on this journey and being a part of our success. Barb Goettig Michael Glanz President, Board of Directors Executive Director The Arc of the Quad Cities Area 2 RESIDENTIAL Cassandra Martin here is a saying, ‘home is where the heart is.’ For The Arc of the Quad Cities Area, that saying rings true for the TResidential program, which provides supportive and welcoming homes for individuals with disabilities. ® With the closing of the former Heritage Fifty-Three location and the construction of five new homes, the Residential program is now providing services to an additional 40 people and others like Cassandra who love their new home, and many are working towards greater independence in the community. Cassandra Martin is one of the Faces of The Arc. She is always quick with a smile. Cassandra moved to the new Schroeder House when it opened in August of 2015. She takes pride in her new home by assisting with chores around the house. Usually reserved, Cassandra opened up to participating in the Schroeder open house and ribbon cutting ceremony because she takes pride in her new home. Cassandra has expanded her personal interests by becoming a member of the Best Buddies planning committee, and was elected to the The Arc’s Board of Directors in 2015. Cassandra’s future goal is to live on her own some day and become self sufficient. We are sure that with her hard work and the right balance of supports from The Arc, she will be able to achieve this goal. 26 BERNICE AND ABRAHAM GUNASEELAN RIDDLE’S JEWELRY #54 or all working people, a job is not only a source of needed HAPPY JOE’S RUDY’S TACOS income, but a source of pride and accomplishment.

  • Executive Summary
    Davenport 2030 A Resilient City Executive Summary INTRODUCTION In February 2020, the Downtown Davenport Partnership (DDP) commissioned the development of a master plan to provide a framework for growth in the downtown over the next ten years. The plan will serve as guide to Resilient & Connected Riverfront build on the success of the past 15 years, which has seen Downtown Davenport grow into a burgeoning residential neighborhood, a regional destination, and a center for arts, culture, and entertainment in the Quad Cities region. With this master planning process, the DDP and the City of Davenport have endeavored to answer one important question key to the future of Davenport: how can the City Walkable, Bikable, Connected grow inclusively and sustainably, and what are the steps needed to get there? Why a Downtown Davenport Master Plan? Inclusive Growth Downtown Davenport has grown, in population and economic vitality, despite significant challenges faced by the city and the region. A changing climate has increased the frequency and severity of floods. In May 2019, Davenport experienced record high flood waters reaching almost 23 feet, causing economic devastation for countless downtown business owners. 2020 has brought an entirely new set of Vertical Mixed-Use Center challenges. The COVID-19 global health crisis has caused an economic recession and the highest reported unemployment in U.S. history. Across the country, civil unrest stemming from systemic injustice has forced millions to confront decades of racist policies and entrenched segregation. This trifecta of issues – the environment, the economy, and equity – elevates the importance of this moment as an 5 Downtowns, 1 Region inflection point for Downtown Davenport and the forces DAVENPORT that shape it.
