WELCOME
Dear Friends,
It is always a pleasure reaching out to you each year to share our efforts on
behalf of those we proudly serve. 2013 marked the midway point for Koinonia’s
strategic direction for 2012-2014. As has been the case in previous years and an
established aspect of our organizational culture, the year began with
considerable zeal and steadfast focus.
While we love reminiscing about the past, in true Koinonia fashion, we are more
at home when we are moving forward. Throughout 2013, we made great
progress on our key initiatives, all designed with the best interest of the
individuals who depend upon us as our primary motivator.
Thanks to our innovative associates and growing list of community partners,
Koinonia has been able to enhance our services while streamlining our
processes; fine tune our efficiency while heightening our impact.
Rising Harvest Farms, our urban farm in Old Brooklyn, has continued to attract a
broad customer base drawn to its high quality array of naturally grown
produce, herbs and flowers. The Farm’s success has provided the individuals
involved in our agricultural internship program great satisfaction, thus giving
them a greater sense of self-worth and purpose.
Organizations are only as good as the people who work there. If time at
Koinonia has taught us anything it is never underestimate our staff. Our 2013
human capital survey revealed that an impressive 82% of our employees
support the mission and philosophy of Koinonia, with 74.8% demonstrating a
willingness to perform our services to the best of their ability. Koinonia is a
special place because the staff genuinely cares and takes their responsibilities to
heart.
We hope you enjoy looking back on 2013 with us. We are where we are
because we are not afraid of new thinking and new approaches, and because
of the commitment of our staff and the support of our donors.
Thank you to the many who helped to make the journey both interesting and
productive.
Best regards,
Diane Beastrom Fred Watkins President/CEO Chairman of the Board
When we look at the people we serve we see
individuals. Human beings. Each unique. Each with
special talents. Each with a spirit that inspires us to do
more and be better.
At the core of everything we do is the fundamental
conviction that we exist to create an environment in
which those we serve are able to flourish, on their terms.
As individuals, with many special qualities.
Living with an intellectual, physical and/or a
developmental disability is not a “handicap” to a fulfilled
life, nor is it an inhibitor to personal enrichment and
growth. Simply put, disability does not mean inability.
If disability meant inability, Winston Churchill & President Roosevelt would have not brought us victory at the
end of World War II & the great industrial boom that followed. If disability meant mindless, there would have
not been Albert Einstein, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison, Noble laureate American mathematician
John Forbes Nash, meaning we would be without our iPhones & electricity to power just about everything. If
disability meant void of creative talents Ludwig van Beethoven, Robin Williams, Tom Cruise, Academy award
winner Marlee Martlin would be unknowns & we would be without some timeless moving classical music,
great modern movies and side-splitting laughter. We see something special in everyone we serve.

WHAT WE SEE
HOW WE SERVE
page three
In partnership, we walk the journey of each person’s
life. Sometimes cutting the path ahead. Sometimes
encouragingly nudging from behind. Yet, always
walking along side supporting, comforting,
encouraging. Society is not always accepting of
those with a disability. It does not always see their
talents, their special gifts, and the love for life that
burns brightly in their eyes. We do, every day. And
we are grateful for that privilege.

Residential Services
No two households are the same. Similar,
yet reflective of the people who call them
home. That is so true at the residential
houses served by Koinonia. Charming
bungalows, stately Tudors, mid-century
modern ranches. Each as unique as
those who live inside. With comfort,
safety and convenience consistent factors
in each home we serve, the personal
touches for the individuals who reside in
them make each place warm, inviting and
reflective of each resident. Whether
residential group homes, supported living
sites (Waiver) or host homes, Koinonia
respects individual tastes and privacy.
Licensed Group Homes Homes licensed by the Ohio

Adult Day Support
Each weekday our two day support centers are bustling
with rewarding activities where socialization skills and learning initiatives
capture the interest of the 141 attendees In 2013.
Transportation for many individuals is a major obstacle to living a fulfilled life. That is why Koinonia
operates one of the largest Transportation Services with our fleet of over 80 vehicles.
Career & Vocational Services Jobs open doors to community participation, confidence and financial independence. We give
individuals the keys to access meaningful employment through participation in our Career and
Vocational Program. Success starts with a careful assessment of each person’s job skills and strengths in
the pre-vocational services phase.

“ The service we render to others is really the rent we pay for our room on this earth. It is
obvious that man is himself a traveller; that the purpose of this world is not “to have and to
hold” but “to give and serve.” There can be no other meaning.”
Sir Wilfred T. Grenfell1865 to1940, was a medical missionary who devoted himself to improving the lives of the forgotten, weak and very poor.
“Colours of Life”
2014 marks our “Ruby Year” of service.
