At Citizen Care (CCI), we have been committed to providing services and supports to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities for more than four decades. In 1974, CCI was founded as an Intermediate Care Facility d/b/a Robinson Developmental Center. By the end of the 1975, 132 people had transferred from Polk State Center and were living and receiving services at CCI. The Agency reflects a person centered philosophy in which people receiving services are gainfully employed, active in their communities, are treated with dignity and respect, they have choices and CCI helps them achieve their goals and dreams.
Over the years, the Agency began to provide a broadening array of services and supports to an increasing number of people. Because of this expansion of services, we have grown PFQ to what it is today, a disability services and supports leader with more than 40 years of service excellence!
CCI was accredited by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Hospitals (JCAH), a national accrediting agency now known as Council on Quality and Leadership (CQL) in 1978. Our accreditation has been maintained to present, making Citizen Care their longest, continually accredited Agency in the world.
