2005 Letter from the Executive Director We took time this summer to honor the work of citizens, for their contributions to our community’s quality of life. This included the delegates to the 1974 Amelia Island Conference and their leader, Fred Schultz; the citizen pio-
neers who, in 1985, created the nation’s first comprehensive quality of life indicator set; and the creators of the JCCI Forward program, through recognition of its Founding Chair, Oliver Barakat. Three studies were selected
for recognition – the first in what we plan to be a continuing process of highlighting citizen accomplishments
through JCCI participation. The three studies chosen this year were the 1995 Teenage Single Parents Study, the 1998 study on The Role of Nonprofit Organizations, and the 2001 study, Services for Ex-Offenders. Each study
affected the quality of life in our community in very different ways. However, we have 60 other studies that also have made and are making positive changes. You can look forward to hearing about them in the future as we continue to celebrate our milestones.

the efforts of our community to combine to address difficult issues and influence public policy. We also recognized JCCI’s and our community’s pioneering work in creating indicators of suc-
health, social wellbeing and harmony, economic growth, and public safety – to name a few.
Finally, we recognized the importance of leadership development for the next generation of civic leaders through JCCI Forward.
In 2005, JCCI presented to this community three major projects for civic improvement. In January, Mayor Peyton, the City Council, Chamber of Commerce and United Way celebrated the
release of the 20th Anniversary Edition of our Quality of Life Progress Report. In May, City stakeholders representing all facets of our community received the community’s inaugural Race
Relations Progress Report – the first of what will be an annual assessment of Jacksonville’s progress
in eliminating racial disparities and discrimination. In July, JCCI released River Dance, its major
study on our community’s relationship with the St. Johns River. Meanwhile, three Advocacy Task Forces continue their hard work to realize the implementation of earlier JCCI studies. I think de Tocqueville would find democracy thriving here, where Florida begins.
I would like to thank the Board of Directors of JCCI, the JCCI Forward Executive Committee, and
all the JCCI staff for their enthusiastic and thoughtful participation during this anniversary year. The commitment to this community of these dedicated and very talented people is truly remark-
able. After thirty years, JCCI never stopped its critical self-examination and quest for continuous improvement. Special thanks also to our loyal community volunteers, generous donors and many community partners without whom we could not perform our mission.

About JCCI Like every city, Jacksonville has its challenges, and determining how to face those challenges is the role of JCCI. Every day, JCCI brings people together to learn about pressing issues in our community and to find solutions. All with the goal of making Jacksonville a great place to live. JCCI...citizens building a better community.
Making Positive Change
Each year, citizen volunteers and JCCI committees identify problems facing our city. With their input, issues are selected to become the subject of in-depth study. Committees, made up of ordinary citizens, meet weekly for six months to unravel the causes of a problem and make recommendations to resolve them. When the study is published, a JCCI volunteer task force presents it to the community at large, to government, to business and others - advocating for the changes the study suggests. Since 1975, decision-makers have given these studies the consideration and the action they deserve. And they have worked to make our area a better place for all residents.
Our Mission Statement
JCCI is a nonpartisan civic organization that engages diverse citizens in open dialogue, research, consensus building and leadership development to improve the quality of life and build a better community in Northeast Florida and beyond.
Our History
JCCI was created in 1975 as a result of the Amelia Island Community Planning Conference to examine community issues by bringing together a broad cross section of the population. In its 30 years, JCCI has provided a forum and a structure through which groups of informed, concerned citizens have made a difference in public policy decisions. When enough people care to act, the course of an entire city can change.

In August, JCCI celebrated three milestones, the 5th anniversary of JCCI Forward, the 20th anniversary edition of the Quality of Life Indicators Progress Report, and the 30th year anniversary of JCCI. A banquet, chaired by J.F. Bryan, IV, was held at the Schultz Center. Suzanne Morse, Ph.D, author of Smart Communities, was the keynote speaker addressing the over 400 attendees on why Jacksonville – and more specifically – JCCI was singled out in her book as a community to emulate. Frederick Schultz , Honorary Chairman of the event, received the Milestones Founders Award for his pivotal and necessary role as the Chairman of the 1974 Amelia Island Conference.

Implementations
Quality of Life Progress Report In 2005, JCCI released the 20th Anniversary Edition of the Quality of Life Progress Report, the national model and international best practice for measuring and reporting community indicators. Tracking both positive and negative trends, the report provides an ongoing analysis of the state of the region and a roadmap of where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re headed. It also helps monitor the effectiveness of solutions coming from JCCI studies and other initiatives.
Beyond the Talk: Improving Race Relations
The implementation task force completed its work in April 2005. Of the 27
recommendations in the report, 80 percent have been either fully or partially implemented, though improving race relations is an ongoing effort that
does not end with the completion of this report. Therefore, the task force was pleased that JCCI released the Race Relations Progress Report in 2005. Such a
report card provided the community with data-based Indicators that give the community a baseline for change. Beyond the Talk: Improving Race
Relations remains a definitive step in creating a community in which “all res-
idents feel free to, and actually do, participate fully in public life, unimpeded by race-based disparities or discrimination.”
Making Jacksonville a Clean City
The implementation task force completed its work in February 2005, and
handed over continued advocacy efforts to the Keep Jacksonville Beautiful Commission, created as a result of the study. The City Council passed a
citywide zero tolerance policy for litter, calling for mandatory, weekly
cleanups of bus stops, major roads, and parks. The City Council authorized $3 million for initial implementation of this policy.
Tom Van Berkel 2004 Review Chair
The Quality of Life Progress Report includes 119 indicators that reflect trends in our efforts to build a better community in nine areas: achieving educational excellence, growing a vibrant economy, preserving the natural environment, promoting social wellbeing and harmony, enjoying arts, culture, and recreation, sustaining a healthy community, maintaining responsive government, moving around efficiently, and keeping the community safe. The Review Committee was chaired by Tom Van Berkel, representing the Jacksonville Regional Chamber of Commerce and incoming chair of the Cornerstone initiative. The United Way of Northeast Florida and the City of Jacksonville fund the Quality of Life Progress Report.
Neighborhoods at the Tipping Point
Since the study’s release, the Neighborhood Services Division has distrib-
uted 250 folders titled “Toolkit for Neighborhood Organizations.” In 2004, the toolkit was expanded to include resources from Portland, Sarasota,
Chicago, and other cities. Neighborhood Coordinators tailor each toolkit
to the group requesting it. It also includes an Executive Summary of the study.
Public Education Reform
The Community Foundation, in cooperation with the Alliance for World
Class Education, has taken on the leadership role of convening community stakeholders to address the primary recommendation of the study, to initiate and maintain citywide dialogue on education issues.
Town & Gown
The implementation task force has been hard at work, meeting with public
officials and advocating for improved university-community collaboration.
The Jacksonville Regional Chamber of Commerce leadership trips have examined the role of universities in building the intellectual infrastructure
and fueling the economic engine of communities, and the President’s
Council among local university presidents has been re-engaged. Continued efforts are underway. page six

JCCI Forward
Past Presidents JCCI Forward hosted three community Issue Forums, two Leadership Development Workshops and several socials in 2004-2005. Forward
members also participated in National Make A Difference Day, attended Mystery Guest Lunches which provided access to community leaders in
an intimate setting, and participated in training sessions designed specifically to sharpen networking skills.

Five O’Clock Forums
JCCI Council of Stewards Five O’Clock Forums welcome citizens from all walks of life to speak out on topics that affect our region. These exciting, spirited discussions cover an enormous range of topics, uncovering problems and proposing solutions for improvement.
JCCI’s Stewards are leaders in this community. Many share a long history with JCCI, all believe in its mission and value its ability to openly explore issues – even politically sensitive ones – for the benefit of Jacksonville. Prompted by the leadership of Ed Hearle, Jim Rinaman, David Hicks and Bob Shircliff, the Council of Stewards was formed in 2002 to provide a source of seasoned wisdom and sustained financial support for JCCI.
Mary Harvey and Dana Ferrell Birchfield chaired the Five O’Clock Forum Committee, which hosted three forums in 2004-2005.

Human Services Council Born of a JCCI study recommendation in 1981, the Human Services
Council (HSC) is made up of 9 funding partners and 3 member organizations that contract more than $220 million in health and
human services in Northeast Florida. This year the HSC organized
six workshops for front line staff; evaluated jointly funded programs; basic needs, youth development and safety. Nancy Dreicer chaired the
Human Services Council in 2005. Nancy Dreicer, Department of Children and Families District Administrator and Northeast Zone Leader
Membership is granted to individuals who pledge gifts of $5000 or more in total across three years. Stewards are encouraged to share their views about existing programs, their thoughts about new directions, and their suggestions for study of emerging community issues. While the time commitment is minimal (two informal receptions, often at the home of fellow Stewards), the benefit to JCCI is great. JCCI’s Council of Stewards provides a solid foundation for a tradition of excellence.

Finance Report JCCI receives funds from many sources. The United Way of Northeast Florida contracts with JCCI for human services planning and research. The City of Jacksonville, JCCI members, and the local business community provide additional funds. Contracts for services and special grant-supported projects generate supplemental funds. Because JCCI strives for credibility, objectivity, and independence in its work, diverse funding is essential. The thousands of volunteer hours donated each year are one of JCCI's most important resources, although not reflected in the annual budget.
