Welcome!
Target Population and Overview
The purpose of this website is to provide a list of services provided in Champaign-Urbana area for adults with disabilities. Each tab on the top leads to a webpage with information of the service with a link to its website.
Stakeholders
Once an individual with disability reaches age 21, he/she is out of public education system and is on their own to seek information regarding education, place to live, hiring/firing personal assistants, and any other difficulties. Early planning for these issues before an individual reaches that age is always a good idea. We hope that this will be a useful resource to individuals and the families with disabilities who are facing these life-changing events. Also, other adults with disabilities may benefit from this compilation of services as they seek to live a more independent lives.
