For week 10 we asked:

"What Are Centers for Independent Living?"

Centers for Independent Living are community-based, cross-disability, non-profit organizations that are designed and operated by people with disabilities.

Centers for Independent Living Provide Peer Support, Information, and Referrals, Individual and Systems Advocacy, Independent Living Skills Training, and Transition Services.

Idaho has three regional Centers for Independent Living.

These Centers can be found here:
