COMMUNITY IMPACT
How Our Programs Make Change
At the Independent Living Resource Center, services are available to all 209,475 people with a disability in northeast Florida.
Since our founding in 1978, our mission has been empowering children, adults and seniors to achieve their goals for independent living. As a community leader for disability rights, we constantly work to fight stigmas through education, break barriers through advocacy and expand opportunity through service provision.
