WV STATE PLAN FOR INDEPENDENT LIVING
LISTENING SESSIONS
Charleston, WV – The West Virginia Statewide Independent Living Council (WVSILC) along with the West Virginia Independence Network (WIN) will hold multiple listening sessions throughout WV to receive public input for developing the State Plan for Independent Living (SPIL).
The SPIL is a three-year plan for strengthening independent living in West Virginia. Developed by the WV Statewide Independent Living Council (WVSILC) with Centers for Independent Living, also known as the WV Independence Network (WIN), public input, and approved by WV Division of Rehabilitation (WVDRS), the SPIL governs how Federal and State Independent Living Funds will be spent, what services will be provided, how the statewide network of Centers for Independent Living (CILs) will be developed, how the SPIL will be monitored, and how the WVSILC will collaborate with other councils and agencies to improve Independent Living services.
If you are a resident of West Virginia and have a disability or are a family member or a caregiver of a person with a disability, we want to hear from you. Join us and let us know how you believe Independent Living Funds should be used, what services should be provided, and where services should be provided.
You may attend the Listening Sessions in person at the locations listed below. If you cannot attend in person, you may attend virtually during the October 29th Listening Session by registering at:
