What are Independent Living Centers? • Consumer Controlled: Centers are run by a board of directors, more than half of whom are people with disabilities. • Community Based: Centers are located throughout New York State in local communities. • Available to All People with Disabilities: Staff, board members, volunteers, and people served represent a broad cross-section of disabilities. • Non-Residential: Centers are not places to live, nor do they own or operate places for people with disabilities to live. • Non-Profit: Centers are approved for non-profit status with the New York State Attorney General's office. • Individual and Systems Advocacy: Addresses access to equal opportunities in exercising social, economic, educational, and legal rights. Independent Living Centers work with individuals, community organizations, state/national networks; to promote full inclusion of people with disabilities, and to improve the implementation of existing laws: federal, State, and local.
