TrueNorth & Wellmark Give Back to The Arc
posted by TrueNorth Employee Benefits on Wednesday, July 19, 2017
Ted Messer was recently acknowledged as a top agent for Wellmark Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Iowa.
The Promise Award is bestowed on agents that "help Wellmark keep promises to members and build lasting customer trust."
Along with the award, Ted had an opportunity to select an organization of his choice to receive a substantial donation. Ted chose our neighbors to the Southeast: The Arc of East Central Iowa.
About The Arc of East Central Iowa
According to their website, "service, advocacy, inclusion, family and community are what The Arc is about." The Arc strives to improve the quality of life for individuals and families affected by epilepsy, autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, ADHD, and brain injury. Their mission is to empower people with intellectual and related disabilities to engage in lifelong opportunities to live, learn, work and play with dignity, freedom and full inclusion in their communities.
Arc Senior Operations Director, Kyle Schramp indicated, "Many people don't realize that we serve all ages. Often times it is assumed we serve only children and young adults. While they make up a majority, we provide services to people of all ages with intellectual or developmental disabilities in the community." One of The Arc's newer services is Supported Employment, with the goal of helping individuals find meaningful paid employment in the community.
