Independent Living Council

The Governor-appointed State Independent Living Council (SILC) functions in accordance with Title VII of the Rehabilitation Act. The Council jointly develops and submits a State Plan for Independent Living in conjunction with the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation and Department of Services for the Blind. The Council provides advocacy, education, and leadership to guide the development of and promote access statewide to independent living services and centers for independent living. It also increases opportunities for self-determination and creates awareness of people with disabilities as a valuable human resource.

For further information on the State Independent Living Council, you can call 1-800-624-4105 V/TTY.
