| STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | FORM 990, PART III, LINES 4A, B & C | Successful businesses thrive in healthy communities. That's why many organizations, like John Knox Village, are challenging themselves to make an even greater impact in the areas where they conduct business through their community involvement efforts. Although monetary donations are significant, it's the power of the people - our skills and talents - that really make a difference. Village associates and residents who share their time and expertise make a positive impact within the communities where they live, work, worship, volunteer, etc. It's not only the right thing to do - it's a business strategy that means success for our organization. John Knox Village is dedicated to helping to build stronger and more vibrant communities. It is a commitment we live out each day as part of our mission of "enriching lives, building community." But this tenet involves more than just the people who live and work at John Knox Village; it includes the people and organizations we serve throughout the entire Kansas City Metropolitan through our various lines of business. What's more, this commitment enables the Village to remain a leading provider of services and care to older adults, as well as a source of support for their families. In addition to providing quality care and services to seniors, the Village provides a diverse array of dependable services, such as catering, banquet facilities and more, to members of the outside community - offerings that enable a diverse array of people to benefit from the Village's offerings. Because of the Village's size, diverse array of services, amenities and offerings, we are able to allocate multiple resources toward our community involvement commitments. We share facilities, facilitate the giving of resident and associate time and talents, offer leadership and/or modest financial support to community-based organizations, share entertainment and promote education and intergenerational activities. In turn, the Village benefits greatly. - We are making strides in achieving the Village's mission, vision and values by enriching the lives of residents, associates and members of the surrounding community. - We are strengthening the Village's position as a valuable community resource and leader. - We are heightening awareness of and understanding about John Knox Village. - We are enhancing the image of John Knox Village and breaking down stereotypes about aging and older adults. - We are generating interest in residency at or use of John Knox Village services. - We are promoting John Knox Village as a good place to live, work and conduct business with. - We are reinforcing the appropriateness of our not-for-profit status. The Village's community involvement initiative extends beyond volunteering and/or donating goods and services. We are taking steps to become a more sustainable, earth-friendly organization. What better way to make a positive impression on the communities we touch than by minimizing our carbon footprint for future generations? This report is more than a just a showcase of the Village's generosity and our long-standing commitment to community involvement. It's the story of our efforts to make a greater impression in the communities we are involved in. The Village's community involvement efforts enrich the lives of thousands of individuals - all of who are potential supporters, customers, residents or associates of our organization. We are proud of our accomplishments and excited about future community involvement prospects.

Currently, Vice President of Health and Community Services Rodney McBride is serving on the board of directors. The Village also offers financial and organizational support to chamber events. Finally, 27 JKV associates have participated in Leadership Lee's Summit, a nine-month program designed to educate and build community leaders. JKV President/CEO Dan Rexroth serves as an advisor to the Lee's Summit Economic Development Council. Civic/Community Organizations Many John Knox Village community members are involved in a variety of worthwhile athletic, charitable, civic, church, school and organizations that are located throughout Lee's Summit and the rest of the Greater Kansas City Area. Although not sponsored or facilitated by John Knox Village, such involvement indirectly - yet positively - reflects on the Village. In addition, these organizations also benefit from the leadership, intellectual capital and other contributions by Village associates, residents and board members. The following list includes examples of the diversity of organizations in which JKV community members have been involved. Boy Scouts of America, Center for Practical Bioethics, Citizen's Advisory Committee, Girl Scouts of the USA, Heartland Men's Chorus, Humane Society, Indian Association of Kansas City, Junior Achievement of Middle America Inc., Kannada Sangha of Kansas City, Kansas City Chamber of Commerce, Lee's Summit Optimists, Lee's Summit Chamber of Commerce, Lee's Summit Economic Development Council, Lee's Summit Character Council, Lee's Summit Sunrise Rotary Club, Lee's Summit R-7 School District, Mayor's Health Education Advisory Board, Raymore Historical Society, Sunset Garden Club, United Way Review Board and Workforce Investment Board, Water Utilities Community Action Group, and Lee's Summit Sustainability Committee.

Political Participation John Knox Village residents actively participate in political activities, issues, campaigns and voting. They frequently invite and host elected officials and candidates to speak to resident groups and occasionally organize letter-writing campaigns on issues important to them. From time to time, the Village provides support to these efforts. The Village also leases space to the Jackson County Board of Election Commissioners for two voting precincts. Residents readily volunteer to man those polling places as well as voting sites located outside the Village campus. During fiscal year 2013, several elected officials held events on the campus of John Knox Village, including Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder, Sen. Will Kraus and Rep. Gary Dusenburg. Furthermore, several John Knox Village associates have been active in advocating for older adults and services for seniors, as well as acting as industry advocates in both state and national arenas. Public Safety Emergency Management John Knox Village's Public Safety Department (which includes Dispatch, Transportation, Security, Emergency Medical Services and Emergency Management Services) provides services to Village residents and associates, as well as to members of the outside community. The Village's ability and willingness to provide assistance helps take financial and staffing strains off stressed city and state programs. During emergency situations that occur outside the Village campus, John Knox Village Public Safety can allocate resources and man-power to assist city and state response efforts without adversely affecting the safety or well being of people on the Village campus. A series of partnerships with a variety of local, state, regional and national public service organizations has enabled the JKV Public Safety department to assist with security, emergency service administration and more. Public Safety's partnerships include: Lee's Summit Emergency Services (police, fire department), local hospitals, local care facilities, Jackson County Emergency Management, Jackson County Health Department, Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, (Missouri) State Emergency Management Agency, Federal Emergency Management Agency and Homeland Security - to name a few. JKV Public Safety provides many services to Lee's Summit and surrounding communities. Examples include: -Safety: Security patrols at community events such as Lee's Summit Downtown Days. -Education: Partnered with the Lee's Summit Police Department to host a "Prescription Take Back" event for Village residents and members of the surrounding community. -Transport: Non-emergency transport of patients between hospitals as well as local care facilities. -Mutual Aid: In addition to assisting the residents of John Knox Village, Public Safety has mutual aid agreements with the cities of Lee's Summit, Mo., and Raytown, Mo. With the agreement, when the need arises to respond to an emergency within city limits, John Knox Village Public Safety services can help out. What's more, the Village is a member of a Kansas City metropolitan-wide emergency preparedness group, so if a city or region-wide emergency were to occur, the Village would be able to assist after first assisting its own community members - residents and associates. - Emergency Preparedness Activities: Activities include developing plans and analysis; fostering relationships with city, state and national organizations, such as the fire department, the Jackson County Health Department and the American Red Cross; continuing education and training for associates; communication; and conducting exercises, such as fire drills, to test our response time and planning. Being prepared enables the Village to better respond to and assist with emergencies both on campus and within the community. Members of the public safety staff participate in a variety of industry associations, including the Missouri Ambulance Association, Missouri Emergency Medical Services Association, Mid America Regional Council Emergency Response, American Ambulance Association and International Police Mountain Bike Association. Finally, staff members also are active in political groups, such as Missouri State Region A EMS Committee and the Lee's Summit Livable Streets Advisory Committee. | |
| Corporate and Community Philanthropy | John Knox Village offers modest financial support to organizations that host events or provide services that have measurable social impact within the community and/or support older adults. The Village has three categories of giving. -Corporate giving helps build awareness of the Village and integrates the organization into the local community.

Cultural Offerings/Special Events John Knox Village hosts and sponsors a number of special events each year that are open to members of the Village community and surrounding areas. These activities are a way to share resources and allow people to have a positive experience on the Village campus. -JKV music concerts by choral and instrumental groups. -Free concerts included performances by the American Legion Band, United States Air Force Jazz Band: Shades of Blue, Kansas City Metro Area Men's Chorus Festival, Kansas City Wind Symphony, and New Horizons Concert Band. -The John Knox Village Community Theatre, which is a group of Village resident volunteers, produces free, twice-a-year productions. -A Mission Fair was held, which enabled missionaries and outreach organizations to teach and information members of the communication about their ministries. -Valley View Residential Care/Memory Care hosted a Memory Screening and Education session that was open to members of the surrounding community. In addition to learning more about memory and exercises individuals can do to help retain it, nurses gave memory screening tests. Donation of John Knox Village Facilities and Equipment Classrooms/Meeting Spaces/Tours Because of its centralized location and the availability of meeting room space, several organizations offer classes/seminars/meetings on the Village campus. Classroom/meeting space was donated to the Missouri League of Nursing; Jackson County Legislature; Lee's Summit Chamber of Commerce; National Association of Health Care Assistants; and more. During fiscal year 2013, the value of the donated classroom/meeting space was nearly $16,000. Notable events that were held on campus during FY13 include the following: -Working with the partnership formed between Jackson County, MARC, KCATA and the City of Kansas City, the Village hosted two open house/educational sessions about a proposal to use the old Rock Island Rail Line through Lee's Summit as part of an upgraded metro area transit system. -Lee's Summit Police Department is using the Calvin Community West apartment building, which is no longer used as a residence and has been shut down to the general public, to train K-9 units. Residents often are involved in civic/church/retiree groups not affiliated with the Village and at times have invited these groups to hold meetings on the Village campus. The Village also regularly hosts tours of the campus for area schools, churches, Scout troops, business groups, etc. The aforementioned efforts help position John Knox Village as a good community resource and enable the organization to break down stereotypes about aging, retirement communities and John Knox Village in particular. The Pavilion at John Knox Village John Knox Village donates its special event venue, The Pavilion at John Knox Village, multiple times a year. Many of these events offer entertainment that might not otherwise be available if the appropriate space wasn't available. In other cases, important community meetings and programs are enhanced because of the amenities and services provided by The Pavilion's staff. In fiscal year 2013 The Village donated the venue multiple times at a value of nearly $50,000 (figure based on current rental rates). -Lee's Summit R-7 School District's Partners In Education Banquet -Lee's Summit R-7 Partners in Education Student Showcase -Lee's Summit Journal's Senior Ball -Lee's Summit Mayor's Outreach Breakfast for Community of Character -Lee's Summit Chamber of Commerce annual banquet -Lee's Summit Martin Luther King Tribute -Downtown Lee's Summit Piccadilly Gala -Hospice Volunteer Coordinator's Symposium -CLAIM Medicare Enrollment event -Prescription Drug Take Back Event -Multiple events in partnership with the Mid-Continent Library -Concern Cares of Lee's Summit | |
| Surplus Equipment | John Knox Village donates obsolete equipment or supplies to other not-for-profit organizations. The Village has donated maintenance/construction/HVAC items to Habitat for Humanity and repurposed cell phones to Lee's Summit Hope House. Local schools and children's camps also have benefited from surplus supplies that can be used for classroom projects and/or activities. In addition, the Village has also donated items to nursing homes, churches and child care facilities. (It should be noted that donations to the Thrift Shop are the most-frequent outlets for these materials, allowing nominal funds to stay within the John Knox Village organization.) Education John Knox Village offers a variety of educational opportunities for people of all ages and skill levels that enhance the lives and careers of Village community members as well as members of the outside community. Auxiliary Scholarship Program The John Knox Village Auxiliary Health Care Career Scholarship Committee annually awards more than $10,000 worth of health care scholarships to John Knox Village associates, family members of Village associates and family members of Village residents. Recipients are students pursuing studies in a health care related vocational/technical program at a college or university. Emergency Training Institute The John Knox Village Emergency Training Institute is a training entity established within the John Knox Village Emergency Medical Services Department. It has been providing continuing education units of credit (CEUs) for paramedics and emergency medical technicians since it was established and accredited in June 2006. The institute's initial emergency medical training and our training facility accredits continuing units of education provided by physicians and other EMS specialists from the Missouri State EMS Region A committee. The institute has provided several favorable outcomes for both the Village and the community. In addition to training much-needed emergency medical providers for the community, the Village was able to hire multiple individuals who have successfully completed the classes. Lee's Summit R-7 School District Involvement John Knox Village supports the Lee's Summit R-7 School District in a variety of ways. -Partners in Education: John Knox Village has been involved with the Lee's Summit School District's Partners in Education (PIE) program for more than 20 years. In addition to the educational opportunities for both the students and residents, PIE activities have provided positive media coverage. Village associates are actively involved in the program administration, and The Pavilion is donated to the school district for the Partners in Education Banquet, an event that is held to recognize and thank R-7 School District business partners. -Voting: It is important to note that residents actively support the Lee's Summit schools by voting in favor of bond and levy issues. Intergenerational: John Knox Village residents helped students multiple times through the year with their coursework and extracurricular activities. A group of former educators, engineers and other professionals met regularly with a group of 5th and 6th graders from Trailridge Elementary. The students participate in an afterschool robotics club called FIRST Lego League. FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) enables students to use science, technology, engineering and math to complete a series of challenges. Each year the students are assigned a challenge and compete in meets. The challenge they worked on: Senior Solutions. Mentoring Program In 2001, John Knox Village began a mentoring program in conjunction with the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine to provide an experiential setting for first- and second-year medical students to interact with "well elderly" JKV residents. Through conversations and social events, future doctors more fully understand the normal processes of aging and are able to eliminate negative stereotypes. The mentoring program also teaches the students how to relate to people as a whole person, not just a patient. By emphasizing communication and listening skills, the program has helped to shape an entire generation of physicians by making them more sensitive to issues affecting older adults and helping them become listeners and more effective communicators. In 2003, the mentoring program won the Distinguished Service Award through LeadingAge Missouri. The program received national attention in 2004 by being chosen for the Community Service Award through the LeadingAge. Health Care Education John Knox Village is involved in beneficial clinical education partnerships with multiple schools. These relationships have enabled hundreds of students who are studying health care to benefit from the hands-on, real-world experiences. -Students from the Metropolitan Community Colleges (which includes Longview Community College; Penn Valley Community College; Maple Woods Community College; Business and Technology; and Blue River), Brown Mackey College, the Metropolitan School of Nursing, Colorado Technical University, Cass Career Center and National American University have been seen around campus, especially at the Village Care Center. Student Internships Student internship programs are a win-win for everyone involved. Students can start using the skills they've acquired at school while gaining valuable work experience (both practical and for rsum enhancement). The Village benefits from the students' insights and enthusiasm. An added bonus: The Village is able to gauge the talents of a new generation of workers first-hand. Teaching A number of John Knox Village management team members have participated in periodic or ongoing teaching positions and/or serve on advisory committees at area colleges and universities including the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Business, Central Missouri State University, Rockhurst University, Longview Community College and the University of Kansas. | |
| Environment/Sustainability Efforts | Because it is important to our residents, associates and members of the | surrounding community, John Knox Village is making strides to become a more sustainable, earth-friendly organization. We are working to reduce our environmental impact through operational initiatives, energy conservation, recycling and waste management, and more. What's more, becoming better environmental stewards has forced us to become more conscious of how all our activities impact the environment. Recycling at the Village - 15 co-mingle bins throughout the campus - 1 glass recycling bin - 4 collection points for corrugated cardboard. All corrugated cardboard ends up at the warehouse where it is baled, stored and picked up when six bales are ready Other notable "green" efforts include: - Greater use of technology to cut down on printing and paper usage. - Investment in new equipment and lighting to reduce energy use. - Continued participation in the KCP&L Energy Optimizer program. Energy-reducing optimizer thermostats were installed in more than 400 independent living homes. - Incorporating native plants in landscaping, which require less water throughout the summer. - Increased promotion of the John Knox Village Auxiliary Thrift Shop as a way for members of the Lee's Summit community to recycle, reuse and repurpose items they no longer need. The Thrift Shop has been in the "recycling" business for more than 25 years. - Reduced the number of miles driven by the transportation vehicle fleet and business vehicles. - Installed 618 solar panels on the roofs of the Courtyard apartment buildings, Valley View and the Village Care Center. Together, the panels, which make up one of the largest fields of solar panels in the state of Missouri, produce about 180,000 kilowatt hours per year. |
| Industry Involvement | Membership and involvement in industry and professional organizations aid in building the knowledge and skills of John Knox Village associates, introducing new ideas to the organization and enabling Village associates to share expertise. John Knox Village is actively involved in LeadingAge Missouri and LeadingAge. Membership in both organizations enables Village leadership to remain informed of industry trends and innovations. Members of the management staff attend the state and national conferences, make presentations at these conferences, serve on state and national committees and hold positions of leadership. The Village's general and professional liability insurance company, Caring Communities Insurance Company (CCIC), shoulders the advanced risk management and quality healthcare responsibilities for many other not-for-profit continuing care retirement communities around the nation. John Knox Village was a pioneer in the establishment of this innovative risk-financing program. The Village has experienced significant savings because of the group, which enables it to better meet community involvement goals and commitments. Professional Involvement Most members of the JKV management team are involved in the local chapters of professional associations, and a number hold leadership roles at the local, state and national level. From time to time, association meetings are held on the Village campus or feature a John Knox Village associate as a speaker. Village associates are members or serve on the boards of a variety of industry associations, such as the Missouri Hospice and Palliative Care Association, National Hospice and Palliative Care Association, Missouri Alliance for Home Care, Professionals in Aging, Metropolitan Discharge Coordinators, Assisted Living Association of Kansas, the National Association of Home Care, Missouri Association of Nursing Home Administrators, Missouri League for Nursing, Institute to Transform Senior Life, and Full Employment Council/ Eastern Jackson County Workforce Investment Board, University of Missouri Human Resource Advisory Board, Certified Aging Services Professionals, Kansas City Compensation and Benefits Association, Activity Directors Association of Missouri, American Health Information Management Association, American Society of Safety Engineers, Association of Medical Staff Services, American Association of Nurse Assessment Coordinators, American Congress of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, Board of Certified Safety Professionals, Association of Energy Engineers, Dietary Managers Association, Funeral Consumer Alliance of Kansas City, Human Resources Management Association of Greater Kansas City, Healthcare Compliance Association, Healthcare Financial Management Association, American Society of Healthcare Risk Managers, Kansas City Regional Healthcare Materials Management Association, Activity Director Association of Missouri, American Society of Heating and Refrigeration, Missouri Association of Directors of Volunteer Service in Healthcare, Association of Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc., Association of Fundraising Professionals, Society for Human Resource Management, Group Leaders of America, Missouri Restaurant Association, Health Care Food Service Management, the Kansas City Chapter of International Society of Certified Employee Benefits Specialists, Missouri Area Hospitals and Auxiliaries, Culinary Advisors Board for the Olathe School District, the Kansas State Advisory Board for Hospitality Management, Missouri Area Volunteer Professional, Missouri Association Natural Gas Operators, American Association of Nurse Assessment Coordination; Hotel/Restaurant Advisory Board for University of Missouri; and and literally dozens more.

During fiscal year 2013, the Village offered an Alzheimer's and Dementia Support Group, Low Vision Support Group, Parkinson's Support Group and Dealing with Loss Support Group. The organization also offers spiritual support groups for reading, prayer and discussion that are open to the public, some of which are led by community volunteers. JOHN KNOX VILLAGE AUXILIARY More than 139 Auxiliary volunteers help out in various capacities, such as running four convenience stores and a Thrift Shop that provide residents and members of the surrounding community convenient and easy ways to purchase an assortment of merchandise, from knick-knacks to clothing to food staples and everything in between. The five shops operated by the Auxiliary, which was named the Volunteer Program of the Year by LeadingAge Missouri, serve residents, associates and non-residents. Nearly 75 percent of the 150 average daily customers at the Thrift Shop live outside the Village. Some of the items donated to the Thrift Shop are passed on to multiple organizations around the area. The Auxiliary funded several notable projects throughout the fiscal year, including funds to purchase a new state-of-the-art ambulance for use in the Village and surrounding communities, and to help clean up the fishing lake, a notable and well-known feature in the Village campus. Since 1989, the John Knox Village Auxiliary has donated funds to Lee's Summit Social Services to purchase medical supplies for an area child through a program called "Our Child." Last year about $1,800 was contributed, with a portion of that amount being collected from simple cans placed on the counters of the various Auxiliary shops, beauty salons, and the Village's on-campus ice cream parlor. Additionally Thrift Shop volunteers hosted hot dog sales during the summer. See the "Education" section for information on the Auxiliary's Health Career Scholarships. | |
