What is an
​Independent Living Center?

Independent living centers (ILCs) are consumer-controlled, community-based, cross-disability, nonresidential private non-profit agencies that are designed and operated within a local community by individuals with disabilities, and provide an array of independent living services like:
  • Information and referral;
  • IL skills training;
  • Peer support;
  • Individual and systems advocacy; and
  • Services that facilitate transition from nursing homes and other institutions to the community, provide assistance to those at risk of entering institutions, and facilitate transition of youth to postsecondary life.

"With the help of a financial literacy class from Access to Independence, I am excited to start focusing on my money habits more.
