FY 2025 ilcl ~ state plan independent living centers

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living awarded Central Iowa Center For Independent Living $264,167 under the ACL Centers for Independent Living program (CFDA 93.432) on September 30, 2025.

The award funds independent living services delivered across Iowa, including information and referral, independent living skills training, peer counseling, individual and systems advocacy, and transition assistance from institutional to community-based living. These services are designed to enhance independence and productivity of individuals with significant disabilities and promote their full inclusion into the mainstream of American society.

Central Iowa Center For Independent Living, a consumer-controlled, cross-disability nonprofit headquartered in Des Moines, operates as part of Iowa's statewide network of centers for independent living. The center serves individuals with significant disabilities across the state.

The performance period runs from September 30, 2025 through September 29, 2027. This is a formula grant award under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, supporting centers that comply with statutory standards and assurances. The award reflects Iowa's population-based allocation under the program's statutory priority system, which first funds existing centers at prior-year levels and provides cost-of-living adjustments.
