THE GADSDEN Volume 229 GAB
February 2009 THE GADSDEN Volume 229 GAB President’s Message 2 Birthdays/Community News 4 Activities & Festivities 6-7 The Chaplain’s Corner 11 Philip Simmons: A Consummate Artist and his Reflections Barbara Tuck As we enter Black History month, with the awe-inspiring inauguration of our first African- American president fresh in our minds, it’s fitting to celebrate living black history in the person of Philip Simmons who now resides among us here at BG. Powerful in his art and character, Simmons is the epitome of someone who’s lived humbly yet has achieved the summit of success in his chosen art—designing and creating beautiful pieces of ornamental ironwork. Eight years old, with fifty cents in his pocket, Philip left his grandparents’ home on Daniel Is- land and took the ferry to Charleston to live with his mother and to attend the first class at Buist School. Lured by the click-click-click of the blacksmith shop at the end of Calhoun Street, which had been owned by a former slave, Simmons couldn’t wait to start a promised apprenticeship at age 13. Once he started, he kept alive the tradition of African-American blacksmiths for the next 80 years. Simmons left horseshoes behind and created elaborate designs in ironwork that now adorn and char- acterize Charleston’s beautiful homes and buildings. Simmons reflected on black history in a bench he de- signed in a collaborative effort to commemorate Rosa Parks’ defiance on a Montgomery bus. The size of a bus seat for two, this simple bench made an awesome statement—with the outline of a bus and the year 1955 on its back. -

LINC Commission Meeting Jan. 28, 2008 LINC heads to Jefferson City for Child Advocacy Day. LINC Local Investment Commission 3100 Broadway, Suite 1100 - Kansas City, MO 64111 - (816) 889-5050 - www.kclinc.org Local Investment Commission (LINC) Vision Our Shared Vision A caring community that builds on its strengths to provide meaningful opportunities for children, families and individuals to achieve self-sufficiency, attain their highest potential, and contribute to the public good. Our Mission To provide leadership and influence to engage the Kansas City Community in creating the best service delivery system to support and strengthen children, families and individuals, holding that system accountable, and changing public attitudes towards the system. Our Guiding Principles 1. COMPREHENSIVENESS: Provide ready access to a full array of effective services. 2. PREVENTION: Emphasize “front-end” services that enhance development and prevent problems, rather than “back-end” crisis intervention. 3. OUTCOMES: Measure system performance by improved outcomes for children and families, not simply by the number and kind of services delivered. 4. INTENSITY: Offering services to the needed degree and in the appropriate time. 5. PARTICIPANT INVOLVEMENT: Use the needs, concerns, and opinions of individuals who use the service delivery system to drive improvements in the operation of the system. 6. NEIGHBORHOODS: Decentralize services to the places where people live, wherever appropriate, and utilize services to strengthen neighborhood capacity. 7. FLEXIBILITY AND RESPONSIVENESS: Create a delivery system, including programs and reimbursement mechanisms, that are sufficiently flexible and adaptable to respond to the full spectrum of child, family and individual needs. 8. COLLABORATION: Connect public, private and community resources to create an integrated service delivery system.
