Cork Centre For Independent Living (Cork CIL) was opened in 1996 by People with Disabilities. In our 12th year, we are committed to working towards the removal of barriers to inclusion i.e. an inaccessible physical environment, lack of appropriate transport, suitable housing and rights-based equality legislation for People with Disabilities.

CILs in Ireland are funded primarily through their regional boards in the Health Services Executive and FÁS. Each CIL is autonomous and they provide a range of services to people with a disability. Cork CIL  Services include:

bullet

Provision of a Personal Assistant (PAs) Service.

bullet

Provision of information on the rights and entitlements of people with a disability.

bullet

Promoting advocacy and self-advocacy.

bullet

Accessible transport projects.

bullet

Employment creation for people with a disability.
