At One Vision, our Community Integration (CI) initiatives are designed to empower individuals with disabilities to actively engage in their communities while fostering independence. Through these initiatives, we provide personalized support that helps participants build meaningful connections, pursue personal interests, and participate in everyday activities that promote a fuller, more independent life.

A Special Vacation

For two years, an individual supported by One Vision couldn't vacation with Special Journeys due to unmet support needs. Longing to stay in a hotel again, One Vision collaborated with her to make this dream a reality! She chose to invite an old friend to accompany her to the Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium and to go shopping.

This is the "MC Men's Breakfast Club," where friends Terry, Doug, and Steve meet monthly at Perkins in Clear Lake. Their gatherings not only fill their plates but also strengthen their bonds, reminding us of the value of friendship in living our best lives.
