The South Carolina Statewide Independent Living Council (SCSILC) is pleased to present the draft copy of the goals from the State Plan for Independent Living (SPIL) 2024-2027. This State Plan for Independent Living (SPIL) serves as the framework for collaboration among the three Centers for Independent Living in South Carolina (Able SC, AccessAbility, Walton Options for Independent Living) and the shared approach to advance independent living for individuals with disabilities across South Carolina.
Sec. 704(a) of The Rehabilitation Act, as amended requires the review and revision of the SPIL, not less than once every three years, to ensure the existence of appropriate planning, financial support and coordination, and other assistance to appropriately address, on a statewide and comprehensive basis, needs in the state for:
(A) the provision of independent living services in the state;
(B) the development and support of a statewide network of centers for independent living; and
(C) working relationships and collaboration between—
(i) centers for independent living; and
(ii)(I) entities carrying out programs that provide independent living services, including those serving older individuals;
(II) other community-based organizations that provide or coordinate the provision of housing, transportation, employment, information and referral assistance, services, and supports for individuals with significant disabilities; and
(III) entities carrying out other programs providing services for individuals with disabilities.
