Mission of

Independent Living Resource Center

Encouraging greater independence and empowerment for persons with disabilities through advocacy and resources.

VISION: Independence and Empowerment for All.

INDEPENDENT LIVING PHILOSOPHY: “Independent Living does not mean that we want to do everything by ourselves, do not need anybody or like to live in isolation. Independent Living means that we demand the same choices and control in our every-day lives that our non-disabled brothers and sisters, neighbors and friends take for granted. We want to grow up in our families, go to the neighborhood school, use the same bus as our neighbors, and work in jobs that are in line with our education and interests, and raise families of our own. We are profoundly ordinary people sharing the same need to feel included, recognized and loved.” Dr. Adolf Ratzka
