The Disability Resource Center of Fairfield County is a cross-disability resource and advocacy organization for people with disabilities. Its basic values are Consumer primacy, empowerment and the independent living philosophy in which the focus lies in the belief that the issues of dependence and access lie not with the individual, but with the community’s attitudinal and architectural barriers. Thus, the work of Centers for Independent Living is directed primarily at advocating for the removal of physical and psychological barriers and assisting consumers in dealing with those barriers.


Oak Hill helps people with disabilities experience rich, fulfilling lives in communities throughout Connecticut.
