Independent Living, Inc.

Independent Living, Inc. is a locally controlled, nonprofit agency operated by people with disabilities for  people with disabilities, offering a wide range of programs and services dedicated to ensuring universal  access and opportunity in every aspect of community life. Since 1987, we’ve served as a voice for people  with disabilities living in Orange, Dutchess, Ulster, Putnam, Sullivan, Rockland, and Westchester  Counties. 

Our efforts are directed to people of all ages having any disability, as well as to families, businesses,  agencies, and municipalities. We are committed to the universal elimination of physical and attitudinal  barriers, as well as assisting individuals with disabilities to make the transition from system dependency  to independence successfully. 

Since its inception in 1987, Independent Living, Inc. has remained steadfast in its mission to enhance the  quality of life for people with disabilities. With a comprehensive range of over 35 programs and services,  Independent Living, Inc. provides personalized support that empowers individuals to live independently,  exercise control over their care decisions, and maintain their autonomy. 

We strive to be the bridge that enables individuals, regardless of age or disability, to embrace their full  potential and thrive in a fully integrated and barrier-free society.
