Our Mission

Founded in 1991, the ILRC is guided by its mission statement: "To empower all people with a disability (as defined in the American's With Disabilities Act (ADA) or Rehab Act of 1973), to live independent and self-empowered lives."

About Us

The Independent Living Resource Center of N. E. Florida (ILRC), has been serving people with disabilities for over 20 years.  The ILRC is a consumer driven, community based, non-residential, 501 (c) (3) private not-for-profit organization.  We serve as a resource agency serving people with disabilities in 7 counties throughout Northeast Florida, including:  Duval, Baker, Clay, Nassau, Flagler, St. Johns, and Volusia.  We provide services through partnerships with Vocational Rehabilitation Service, Department of Education, The ABLE Trust, Brain and Spinal Injury Program, and Social Security Administration.

Living independently means having control over one's life and participating fully and productively in society.  The ILRC is an established community resources operated by people with disabilities with a strong record of responding to the needs of people with disabilities.  The Center, in keeping with the Independent Living Philosophy, is staffed and governed by a majority of people with disabilities.  In addition, all of our services are provided on a cross-disability basis.
