How To Help


Volunteer Opportunities

There are many areas within the CICIL organization in which the talents of persons wishing to volunteer may be put to good use. Tasks requiring volunteer assistance within the organization are the peer support program, editing and compiling the newsletter, completing referrals, gathering and dispersing information, committee level work for the board of directors, board member positions, and participation in various other duties.

Funding Assistance

The Central Iowa Center for Independent Living was founded under a grant from the Iowa Department of Vocational Rehabilitation, with assistance from Principal Foundation, Blue Cross of Iowa, and Meredith Corporation. Further funding was received from a federal grant under the Rehabilitation Act as amended in 1992. Future growth and service availability will depend upon private support for the agency and its services.

Donations to the agency are welcome and are tax-deductible to the extent provided by law. CICIL is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit organization.

Contributions to the Center are not spent to duplicate existing services provided within the community, but to assist individuals in becoming as independent as they wish to be in the community in which they choose to live.
