Our Services

Advocacy

Advocacy continues to be an integral part of LIFE’s programs and services. The ultimate goal of all advocacy efforts is to create an integrated society that is barrier free.

Independent Living Skills Training

Life is a learning experience. Our classes involve teaching skills needed for an individual to become independent and to live and fully function in their community.

Peer Support

We have all been there! Everyone could use a listening ear at times. Peer Supporters are people with disabilities who share similar experiences with others with disabilities.

Transition

There are three components to LIFE’s transition services

Information and Referral

Our goal is to be the southeast region’s disability resource center. We offer a wide range of information on issues of relevance to people with disabilities.

Home Modification and Assistive Technology Program

Individuals may apply for assistance obtaining a home modification or assistive technology. Consideration is given to applications for wheelchair ramps, bathroom modifications, CCTV’s or any modification or assistive technology that increases accessibility and independence.

Assistive Technology Outreach Center

LIFE would like to invite you to visit our new Assistive Technology Outreach Center (ATOC.) This is a hands-on learning center for assessment, demonstration, education, and training of assistive technology. .

Alternative Formats for Everyone

Can ALL of your customers read your menu? Business card? Brochure? Alternative Formats for Everyone offers a variety of opportunities for businesses to provide their customers with materials in accessible formats such as braille, large print and audio.

Living Well in The Community Workshop

10:00 am – 12:00 pm
June 1, 2023

The Living Well in The Community workshop is a FREE ten-week, peer-led, workshop designed for people with disabilities to build skills, share ideas and explore opportunities they can use in their everyday lives to support choices for a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle.

This workshop is much more than just another “health and wellness” workshop, it’s a comprehensive and whole-person approach to building lasting skills and attitudes for achieving self-identified goals that are unique to each participant. LIFE is honored to be chosen as one of only ten Centers for Independent Living in the United States to facilitate this unique program.

We can enroll up to 12 adults with a mobility disability of any degree (does not have to be a wheelchair user or use any mobility aid), and/or an Intellectual and Developmental Disability (IDD) and if you meet this criteria and would like to enroll, please contact us at 912-920-2414.

The workshop sessions begin April 20th at 10:00AM. The sessions are two hours long, some will be in person, and some will be virtual on Zoom. Cash equivalent gift cards will be awarded to participants at three stages of the workshop’s progress.

The workshop will cover the following areas of growth:
