Independence First is THE Resource for people with disabilities. You have found the right agency, specializing in whatever you may need to help you or a loved one live independently in the community. We offer options, from help with care in your home, to workshops and classes to learn independent living skills and socialization, to helping businesses be inclusive. We also advocate for positive change.
Independence First serves people with all types of disabilities, including physical, sensory, cognitive, mental health, and chronic conditions. We support individuals across the lifespan from youth transitioning to adulthood, to working-age adults, to older adults aging with disability. Our work also supports families, caregivers, employers, service providers, policymakers, and the broader community.
