She says\, “We as a community are inherently fighting for our rights to live independently and to be heard by the medical professionals\, as well as our own bodies. We need a space to enjoy\, have fun\, and celebrate the victories.” Our programming includes disability pride events to bring communities together in a fun social way. We believe that bringing people together socially creates stronger communities\, and stronger communities have better conversations. These conversations are key to the advocacy needed in our fight for equality.

In 2024\, the Housing and Services Resource Center (HSRC) launched the Housing and Services Partnership Accelerator (HSPA) to advance innovative state strategies to provide housing-related services and supports to Medicaid-eligible people with disabilities and older adults who are at risk of or presently experiencing homelessness. \n\n\n\nThis webinar highlights how Independent Living (IL) community organizations in three different HSPA states are providing housing-related services and supports to people with disabilities.

SUMMARY:Advocacy vs. Lobbying Training
DESCRIPTION:Archive: \n\n\n\n\nWebinar recording\n\n\n\nTranscript\n\n\n\nPresentation (PDF)\n\n\n\nPresentation (Word)\n\n\n\n\nAdvocacy in its fullest definition includes many types of activities\, including lobbying. Centers for Independent Living have a long history of working to influence policy and legislation to advance the rights of the disability community. However\, there has been confusion about what CILs are required to do versus what they are allowed with federal dollars. Advocacy and lobbying are two important tools CILs use to create change. \n\n\n\nNCIL is joined by Alliance for Justice to provide Centers for Independent Living and Statewide Independent Living Councils with a clear understanding of the kinds of advocacy activities they can safely engage in\, including lobbying! This training will review the difference between lobbying and other forms of advocacy and how CILs and SILCs can lobby while complying with relevant federal laws. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will be recorded and available to NCIL members after the event for 3 months. ASL and CART will be provided. \n\n\n\nThis training is supported by The Grassroots Project: Supporting Disability Advocacy Nationally\, which is funded by the Administration for Community Living and will be administered by the Human Services Research Institute. HSRI will work in partnership with national disability organizations through a National Advocacy and Action Coalition comprised of national organizations for the ACL funded DD\, IL\, TBI\, and PRC programs.

SUMMARY:End Subminimum Wage Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Archive: \n\n\n\nDespite decades of progress for disability employment protections and civil rights\, it is still legal to pay people with disabilities less than minimum wage. Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act has allowed employers to pay disabled workers subminimum wage for close to 90 years. Recent data has shown that disabled employees working under a 14(c) certificate earned an average of $3.34 per hour with many workers making even less than this.    \n\n\n\nThe American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD)\, the Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN)\, and the National Council on Independent Living (NCIL) are hosting a webinar to discuss and educate the public on why advocacy is necessary to end this harmful practice and the actions you can take to support this important policy change.   \n\n\n\nTarget Audience: Everyone! Persons with disabilities\, disability advocates\, employers\, family members of persons with disabilities. This event and a recording will be open to the public.   \n\n\n\nIf you need any accommodations\, please contact NCIL’s Director of Advocacy and Public Policy Jessica Podesva at jessica@ncil.org. ASL and CART will be provided.
