Centers for Independent Living (CILs) (Title VII, Rehabilitation Act, as amended) have been underfunded for decades, leading to individuals with disabilities lacking access to critical services and support!
Many areas in the U.S., especially in rural communities, do not have access to a CIL. CILs need more funding in order to expand their service areas to address the unmet needs.
Individuals with disabilities need better access to comprehensive Independent Living Services!
Funding CILs enables individuals with disabilities to live in their homes with their families where they can work, attend school, worship, and participate in other community activities. CILs are hubs of disability information, resources, services and advocacy. CILs are vital to the whole community. It also creates tremendous savings for taxpayers! Tell your representative to support 500M for Independent Living services.
