The Indiana Council on Independent Living State Plan – Three Ways to Share Your Thoughts and Make a Difference!
Information courtesy of The Indiana Council on Independent Living
The Indiana Council on Independent Living (ICOIL) is developing the goals to be included in the 2013-2015 State Plan for Independent Living. These goals are a critical part of the state plan, providing the direction for independent living in Indiana for the next three years. ICOIL needs your input to define goals that will address a wide range of challenges to independent living for individuals with disabilities and their families, and that will guide the activities of ICOIL, independent living centers, and the State of Indiana into the future.

ICOIL has provided a number of ways for you to share your thoughts and make a difference in your community.
IN PERSON
ICOIL will be conducting a number of public hearings to give Hoosiers with disabilities the opportunity to share their thoughts on the state plan.
