For more than 40 years, Orchard Village has partnered with families and communities to
empower people with developmental disabilities to achieve integrated, fulfilling lives.We
have been fortunate to enjoy the generous ongoing support of many individuals, businesses,
charitable organizations and government entities in our immediate service area and beyond.
provide: to supply something in support; to meet a need.
We are proud to note that Orchard Village is more than a recipient of support – it is itself
a significant and meaningful community provider. Our community-integrated group
residences diversify our neighborhoods. Our growing vocational program supplies area
businesses with loyal, capable and hard-working employees. In-home services bring
much-needed respite, therapeutic and other resources to dozens of family homes. And our
Academy prepares young adults to become engaged, productive and informed citizens.
“To whom much is given, much will be required.”
We are grateful to have been given the community’s generous support and, in return,
remain committed to providing significant and meaningful contributions to
our clients and communities.

Dear Friends of Orchard Village,
We are pleased to share with you, our valued supporters and partners, key programmatic, financial
and organizational highlights of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014. Orchard Village continues to
play an essential role within the community by serving as a valued and worthy partner to families,
employers, schools, neighborhoods and fellow service providers. Working together, we help to ensure
fulfilling lives for the individuals with developmental challenges under our care. We remain committed
to providing our deserving clients with the highest quality support possible.
Orchard Village ended fiscal year 2014 in a solid financial position, with sufficient cash on hand
and a growing endowment to allow for growth and enable us to withstand fiscal uncertainties.
Once again, Orchard Village successfully navigated the sometimes challenging economic and
administrative—even agricultural—climate in Illinois this year:

• State funding, essential to our operations, proved in the main steady and reliable.
• State bureaus charged with evaluating Orchard Village for accreditation, licensure, certification
and quality management gave us extremely and uniformly high marks this year.
• The organization’s important role in the community gained further affirmation in the form of
generous donations from many individuals and corporations at our fundraising events; new
grants from nine foundations; and renewed grants from eight other foundations.
• More than a dozen area businesses joined ongoing employer partners of Orchard Village in
agreeing to hire individuals with developmental disabilities under our care and guidance.
• Tri-annual negotiations with our service union partner were constructive and deemed a success
by all involved.
• And for the second consecutive growing season, we successfully planted, cultivated and
harvested a half-acre urban produce farm on our Skokie campus—a project that is, itself, the
seedling of an ongoing, revenue-generating social enterprise for the organization.
The immediate future looks bright for Orchard Village. After a thorough search, the organization
has hired a proven executive, Martin (Marty) Oliff, to serve as President & CEO. Marty’s long-tenured
experience in nonprofit human services will be instrumental in providing the highest quality of
service to our clients while remaining a critical community asset.
As always, we are grateful for the dedication of our staff of nearly 140 full and part-time professionals;
our committed and tireless Board of Directors; and the more than 120 loyal volunteers on whom we
depend. And we extend our sincere gratitude to the generous donors, grantors and contributors who
validate our important work. Thank you for embracing Orchard Village.
With gratitude,
Donald Bielinski

Last year, Orchard Village clients blossomed in many ways.
Here are just four examples:
Shawn, Vocational Services
Shawn, 39, has been an Orchard Village client since 1993,
when he began working at Dominick’s as a bagger and cart
attendant. For 20 distinguished years, he was a valued member
of his work team, a familiar face to many store customers
and a recipient of numerous accolades for his strong work
ethic and outgoing personality. After Dominick’s ceased
operations at the end of 2013, Shawn struggled at first to
cope with his first period of unemployment in two decades.
Working with the supportive Orchard Village Vocational
team, he soon found work in the suitable and recognizable
environs of a Garden Fresh Market
in Northbrook. Shawn is thriving again
as an experienced bagger and cart
attendant. He loves the new job and is
working hard to serve his community
and achieve independence.
Juwairiyah, In-Home Services
Juwairiyah, a kindergartner, began receiving the services of
her Orchard Village Respite Worker in 2013. During their
initial weekly interactions she was extremely quiet and aloof.
Over time, and with the Respite Worker’s patient guidance,
Juwairiyah’s confidence and creativity have grown dramatically.
She now jumps right into such activities as kite flying,
various art projects, card games (Zingo and Uno are favorites)
and her workbooks. She has become mindful about “please”
and “thank you” (and politely reminds others when they
forget). Her verbal skills have improved and she is quickly
learning and remembering new words.
And she loves books and storytelling
time. Now when Sunday comes around,
her visiting Respite Worker can count
on two things: a giant smile and a
friendly greeting.
Victor, Residential and Vocational Services
Victor, age 32, became an Orchard Village
client in 2013 after living with relatives.
He is a resident of the Community
Integrated Living Arrangement (CILA)
home on Oleander Avenue in Niles,
one of ten 24-hour supervised residences
operated by Orchard Village. Victor loves to follow sports and
is a wiz at statistics, standings and schedules. He is participating
in sports as well – Special Olympics, the Wednesday night
bowling program of the Maine-Niles Association of Special
Recreation, the Orchard Village Run/Walk and the adaptive
tennis workshops run by the USTA at Orchard Village.Victor
currently works at Shore Training Center, a supported employment
workshop, but has begun exploratory, pre-vocational tasks
(including work on the Farm at Orchard Village) under the
guidance of the Vocational staff to determine how his interests
and abilities might relate to future competitive employment
in the community.
John, Orchard Academy
John, age 21, enrolled at the Academy
in 2010. At that time he was very quiet,
socially unskilled and disinclined to
join in conversation with classmates.
With the patient encouragement of
faculty and staff, including a speech
therapist and social worker, John began to gain confidence.
His job readiness coursework, along with three valuable
internships, prepared him for the kind of social interaction
required for success in the workplace. Indeed, John recently
obtained competitive employment at Walmart while,
simultaneously, moving into his own apartment. As his
graduation from Orchard Academy approaches, John has
been enlivening Monday morning assemblies by asking his
peers and staff about their weekends, about computer
problems he can help them with, and about movies they’ve
seen. Now embarked on an independent life, John has truly
found his voice.

Residential Services | Helps people realize their dreams to live in a home in the community, whether a

homes, ongoing care to loved ones with disabilities. The program offers family members the gift
of time to relax, recharge or attend to other obligations. Orchard Village’s Home Based Support
Services (HBSS) directly assist customers living at home with their family or on their own in the
community. HBSS offers case management services and helps to obtain funds which individuals may use
to purchase services that allow them to maintain home living and reach personal goals.

for a job in the community, find success in their workplace, navigate public transportation, become
involved in social activities, establish a budget, plan a daily menu, take care of their home and many
more skills essential to living on their own. Illinois State Board of Education approved.
