We also survey residents every three years to establish and implement a State Independent Living Plan to improve access and opportunities for disabled Michiganders.
The Michigan Statewide Independent Living Council (MISILC) connects residents with disabilities to key independent living resources throughout Michigan.

Health
People with disabilities have higher rates of mental illness and chronic physical illness than the general population. Access to competent and compassionate care is crucial to long-term wellness. If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available. Call or text 988 or chat 988lifeline.org to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline
Education
Children with disabilities deserve the same educational opportunities as their non-disabled peers, but too often, services and support are inadequate. Adults also must have the chance to train for meaningful work in careers of their choice.
Independence
Independent living looks different for everyone. No matter your needs, we can connect you with resources, services, and more to live the life you envision.
Caregiver Support
Caregivers and personal care attendants are critical to independence. SILC advocates for caregivers and links them to resources and services to help people with disabilities achieve their goals.
