Central Utah Center for Independent Living (CUCIL) empowers people with disabilities to reach their full potential in community settings through peer support, advocacy and education.

We envision a world that celebrates the uniqueness of each individual, where we travel down the same path with mutual respect toward the fulfillment of our dreams.

Description:
Any person, who experiences a physical, sensory, cognitive, or mental disability is invited to access our services. The Center's philosophy is the belief that participation in Independent Living activities will lead to an increase in the individual's quality of life.

History:
Independent Living is a civil rights movement that supports the philosophy that people with disabilities have the right to choose to live an integrated lifestyle in the least restrictive environment possible, including where they live, work, and play. Centers for Independent Living assist people with disabilities to reach their full potentials in the setting they have chosen. People living an independent lifestyle decide what services thy receive, if any, and are in charge of their daily living activities
