Let’s Build Independent Living in Southeastern Ontario

1000s of people in this area need us

3.8 million Canadians have disabilities

450,000 people live in Southeastern Ontario

40,000 adults with disabilities 100,000 consumers including families

We receive 5,000 service requests and provide 1,000 support sessions each year

Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) Requirements HIGHLIGHT

Our Mission Independent Living Centre Kingston provides resources and support to all people with disabilities in Southeastern Ontario.

Our Impact Independent Living services address life with disabilities. They are more general and longer-term than most services. They are peer-based, empowering and centered on skills development.

Our Impact We help people change their communities and their lives. And we can do this because we understand and we are accepted. We ARE people with disabilities.

Now we’d like to do more participation income volunteering skills

Suggested Projects Access Guides Access Reviews of locations Workplace Accommodation Workshops

… present key accessibility information covering many locations. And they offer more. Our Access Guides

… are conducted by teams of people with disabilities. The teams are trained and supported by experienced staff. Our Access Reviews

… provide key information and support to organizations with employees, customers, volunteers and families who have disabilities. Our Workplace Accommodation Workshops

These projects can help build stronger services for people with disabilities in the region. This is a great beginning!

With hard work, from this beginning, we can help people to help themselves … and each other. Our plan for the region
