Welcome to our Website
Western Reserve ILC is a local 501-C-3 non-profit agency servicing the needs of persons with disabilities in Ashtabula, Columbiana, Mahoning and Trumbull Counties. We are a community based, non-residential agency whose core services are free.
VISION
WRILC shall be committed to promoting a philosophy of independent living, which includes a philosophy of consumer control, peer support, self-help, self-determination, equal access and individual systems advocacy, in order to maximize the leadership, empowerment, independence, and productivity of individuals with disabilities.
MISSION
WRILC will assist people with disabilities to be as independent as they wish. We work to fully integrate them into the mainstream of society so they may have the same choices and opportunities to contribute to society as any other person without a disability. We assist in breaking down barriers in the community by providing disability awareness, education, and advocacy.
WRILC is looking for more Board Members.
