Find an Independent Living Center
An independent living center (ILC) is a consumer-directed, non-profit organization that provides four core services: peer support, information and referral, independent living skills training, and person and systems advocacy.
Some ILCs provide additional services, such as community education, training on the Americans with Disabilities Act, personal care, and service coordination.
ILCs are also device loan and device demonstration centers as part of the WisTech Assistive Technology Program.
There are eight ILCs in Wisconsin. Choose your desired ILC by using the list below or the printable ILC regional map, P-02357 (PDF).
If you don't know the name of your county, you can find it by looking for your hometown on the list of Wisconsin municipalities (PDF).
For information on filing a complaint about ILC services, contact Lisa Sobczyk at 608-266-9354.
