🌟 STAFF SPOTLIGHT: 13 Years of Empowering Independence! 🌟

At the Center for Independent Living Jacksonville, we love celebrating the people behind our mission—and today, we’re bragging on one of our incredible Community Work Incentives Coordinators (CWICs)!

For more than 13 years, she has helped individuals with disabilities understand how employment may affect their Social Security benefits, health insurance, and other public benefits. Through accurate information, benefits counseling, and ongoing support, she helps consumers make informed choices about employment and their journey toward greater financial independence.

It can mean a second chance at financial independence!
It can mean feeling productive and accomplished again!
It can mean rebuilding confidence!
