From Mike and Bob In 1978, six families set out to change the lives of their autistic children and offer them the dignity that comes with having choices and being involved in their communities. Today, Adelante reaches over 800 individuals with disabilities in New Mexico and employs nearly 1,000 people with a budget of just over $26,000,000. During the past 31 years, we have been part of enormous progress for people with disabilities. Our programs and businesses continue to provide new opportunities for individuals to be empowered in their communities through diverse experiences such as yoga, art, dance, animal therapy, horticultural therapy, independent living, earning a paycheck and volunteering in the community. In the past year, the threat of funding cuts has caused many providers to decrease services. Adelante held strong and was able to continue to offer the same level of services despite these concerns. Additionally, we sought alternative ways to support our mission by diversifying income streams and maximizing the impact of every dollar. Our focus remains on providing opportunities for individuals with disabilities to achieve their goals. We have no doubt that with our collective courage, creativity and persistence, together we will provide a strong future for individuals with disabilities in New Mexico! Mike Kivitz, President/CEO Bob Walton, Board Chair 2 touching 453 7,315 jobs hours Adelante program participants volunteered 7,315 hours in giving back to our community.

We do this by offering a continuum of services, which promote choice and inclusion opportunities for people with mental and physical disabilities, so they can participate in the community and remain as independent as possible. Our programs focus on health and wellness, community outings, independence, volunteerism, social and learning activities—each of which are an integral part of healthy and active involvement in the community. Whether working with a favorite animal or discovering a hidden talent as a photographer, the opportunities are limitless. • • • • • • • • • • yoga dance pet therapy horticultural therapy art karaoke theatre music volunteering in the community photography Noelle is part of Adelante’s Arts & Animals program, where she experiences various types of art mediums and interacts with animals daily. She especially enjoys taking part in training assistance dogs, which is one of the unique aspects of the program. We believe that these experiences enhance the quality of life for everyone. That’s why we continue to look for opportunities to incorporate new activities into our program offerings. creating 5 opportunities 6 empowering 7 How do we define ourselves? We define ourselves through many things in life—but our job is perhaps one of the most important. At Adelante we work to provide opportunities for people to grow and thrive in vocational environments. Our biggest reward is seeing someone empowered by working in the community or working in one of Adelante’s Affirmative Enterprise Businesses. Gene is employed in the community. He serves snacks to employees working in a local office. Employment is often key to an individual’s independence, providing financial stability, self-worth, and personal empowerment. In each case individuals learn job skills and are given our support along the way. We operate several affirmative businesses that provide valuable services for local businesses, while at the same time providing employment for 321 people with disabilities. A variety of employment opportunities are available in those businesses. Each enterprise is located in the community and Adelante operates them while providing the vocational training and support individuals need to succeed in their jobs. • • • • • Document Destruction Document Imaging Assembly Services and Packaging Bargain Square Thrift Stores Facilities Support and Maintenance Through Adelante’s Employment Services individuals are placed in jobs in the community and given the tools and support to maintain successful employment. We work with local businesses to create partnerships that foster growth and opportunities for each individual to see where their skills fit with a potential employer. During the past fiscal year this program has placed nearly 100 individuals with disabilities in jobs throughout our community. lives 8 rewriting 9 At Adelante we are continually seeking new and innovative ways to address needs in the community and 2009 was no exception. As you wander through the achievements below, know that we consider you a part of our team that works together to achieve goals and we look forward to growing with you in the future! Marla is a Document Prep Technician working at Adelante’s newest enterprise business, Document Imaging. She helps prepare documents to be scanned and converted into an electronic format. She’s helping provide an efficient, environmentally friendly way for companies to store their records. In 2009 we began ramping up for more green enterprises. Adelante’s first successful venture in providing green jobs was with the document shredding business, which today services over 1,167 locations statewide and employs 58 individuals with disabilities. In 2009, due to its astounding success and the need for full-service document management, the Document Imaging business is the latest addition to the green jobs initiative. This business provides comprehensive, high-quality document scanning, indexing, sorting and storage of electronic files for companies and government organizations throughout New Mexico. We see great synergy between the Document Imaging business and the document shredding business because once documents are scanned they need to be destroyed by shredding. Desert Harvest Food Rescue program received a large grant from the PNM Foundation to aid in expanding the program in 2009. With this funding, as well as funding from Domanica Foundation, General Mills and Kiwanis Foundation, Desert Harvest nearly doubled the amount of food rescued from 2008 to 2009 and provided 968,483 meals to over 250,00 hungry New Mexicans. Desert Harvest was started in 2001 to address two needs—to alleviate hunger in central New Mexico and to provide volunteer opportunities for people with disabilities. Due to the growing need for services that support the aging population, the new Seniors Program building was purchased in March of 2009. Set to open in the summer of 2010, the new Seniors building will provide the opportunity for Seniors with disabilities to stay active in the community, socialize, dance, exercise and many other activities that would be impossible without a supportive environment. the future 10 paying it Through Adelante, program participants join others in their community in the spirit in contributing to others. They provide their time, skills and passions. Volunteering is one of the best means there is to naturally promote people getting to know each other, appreciating and befriending each other, and experiencing true belonging. This is why Adelante offers a wide variety of volunteer opportunities. Desert Harvest Food Rescue is one of the opportunities that is making huge strides in reducing hunger in New Mexico. Other volunteer opportunities such as those with Albuquerque Meals on Wheels and Heartland Hospice may encourage someone to design and assemble flower arrangements for hospice patients or deliver meals to elderly who are homebound. No matter what the volunteer opportunity is, or who the volunteer is, the experience is the same—one of fulfillment, self-worth and reward. Often along the way a friend or two is made. Volunteering is one of the best means there is to naturally promote people getting to know each other, appreciating and befriending each other, and experiencing true belonging. In 2009 Adelante program participants volunteered over 7,315 hours! 11 Mike is a volunteer who supports Creative Hands day program participants two days a week. Although Mike himself suffers from MS, he doesn’t let that stop him from giving back. “I like to see a smile. Interacting—that’s the most rewarding,” he says. forward 12 volunteers 13 volunteers fy 2008-2009 Adelante volunteers are an integral part of our programs and services, providing a wide variety of contributions.
