Individuals with disabilities can come to the disAbility Resource Center (dRC) and receive support from one of our Community Integration Specialists. They can provide information and resources on Independent Living Skills, Peer Mentoring, Advocacy, Information &amp; referral, and Transition Services.<\/p><h2>How is the dRC providing an inclusive experience for all?<\/h2><p>Simply due to the nature of our mission of work, we are a very inclusive organization and stress the importance of self-advocacy for the consumers we serve. And a lot of our services are for family members of the consumers who, for the most part, normally do not have a documented disability. Our programs and services are designed for a variety of people of all ages, races, gender, etc.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7f21611 disable-default elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7f21611\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-aa88dba\" data-id=\"aa88dba\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-433e6f2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"433e6f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 style=\"font-family: Lexend, sans-serif;letter-spacing: 0.3px\">What does the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mean for the disAbility Resource Center?<\/h2><p>The Americans with Disabilities Act became the foundation to build upon for Centers for Independent Living (CIL) across the country and enhanced and protected the future rights of people with disabilities.
