Center for Independence

Center for Independence An IL 501(c)3 dedicated to helping children & young adults with disabilities reach their potential.

The mission of the Center for Independence is to help children and young adults with disabilities achieve their highest level of independence in the home, school, community and workforce. We provide therapy programs that develop life skills and motor function in a manner that promotes positive self-reliance, self-esteem and an “I Can!” attitude. Committed to breaking down barriers to the workforce, the Center also provides job linkage and placement for young adults with disabilities through our innovative program, Working Together Chicago.

🍷 Help Stock Our Wine Cellar for the Fundraiser! 🍷

We’re building a one-of-a-kind Wine Cellar for this year’s fundraiser and need your help! We’re asking for donations of bottles rated 90 points or higher to create an incredible auction item.

Your contribution will make our fundraiser sweeter—and help raise vital funds for children and young adults with disabilities on the sweet path to independence!
