Advocates for Access is a private,
not-for-profit, non-residential
organization established in 1985.
Advocates for Access is managed by
and for people with disabilities. We
are a Center for Independent Living
dedicated to “Empowering People With
Disabilities To Live Independently
In Our Community.”
To
fulfill this mission, Advocates for
Access provides direct services,
combined with advocacy for social
change to allow greater integration
of persons with disabilities into
mainstream life.
We
serve people with disabilities,
their families and the community in
which they live. We also work with
private organizations, local
communities, service providers,
businesses and industries that
require technical assistance in
responding to the needs of people
with disabilities. Advocates for
Access serves the counties of
Peoria, Tazewell, Fulton and
Woodford. |
