Summary of Federal Grant Award

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living awarded $121,637.00 to Service Center For Independent Life under the ACL Centers for Independent Living program (CFDA 93.432) via formula grant for the period of September 30, 2025 through September 29, 2027. This funding supports the continuation of California's statewide network of Centers for Independent Living, which are consumer-controlled, community-based nonprofit organizations serving individuals with significant disabilities.

Service Center For Independent Life, operating as Services Center For Independent Living in Claremont, California, delivers five core services under this award: information and referral assistance, independent living skills training, peer counseling and support, individual and systems advocacy, and transition assistance to help individuals transition from institutional to community-based living environments. As a sub-awardee to the California Department of Rehabilitation, the center provides these services to enhance independence and productivity for individuals with disabilities while promoting their full inclusion and integration into the community. The funding represents a continuation award based on the organization's demonstrated compliance with program standards and assurances established under Section 725 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.
