General Update:

As the situation with the COVID-19 virus continues to evolve, CIL Disability Resource Center is committed to developing ways to provide services for people with disabilities in the safest, most efficient manner possible. We understand there are needs in our community that are not being met and we are working to close that gap.

CILDRC staff will be contacting all current and former consumers over the next days and weeks to check in, provide information and help connect resources so that people with disabilities can get what they need. We are keenly aware of the challenges faced by many who lack access to food, medications, medical equipment and other life sustaining necessities.

If your situation is such that you do not need assistance and you do not need to hear from us, please reply to info@cil-drc.org "I AM OKAY." Please include your name and phone number when you reply.

In the meantime, the CILDRC Staff will continue our current operating method of not meeting with consumers in our office. We will be managing day to day activities by appointment and remotely during our normal business hours 8:00 am - 4:00 pm. You can reach us by calling 850-595-5566 or by email info@cil-drc.org.

We will do everything we can to assist individuals with urgent matters in a timely manner. Thank you everyone for helping our communities stay safe and healthy during these difficult times.
