Delta Center for Independent Living is a non-profit organization which exists to support people with disabilities to live as independently as possible in the community. Our coverage area includes St. Charles, Lincoln, and Warren Counties. We are one of twenty-two centers in Missouri. Centers for Independent Living arouse from the disability rights movement in the early 1970's. Communities were not accessible and supports to assist people with remaining in their homes did not exist. The disability rights movement led to the Rehabilitation Act of 1975 and eventually the Americans with Disabilities Act. . Advocacy and connecting people with disabilities to community supports remains at the core of what we do. We provide individual advocacy to assist folks with specific issues as well as community advocacy focused on breaking down barriers to independent living. This past year, Delta Center remained part of the St. Charles County Housing Team. Affordable and accessible housing in St. Charles remains one of the biggest barriers to people with disabilities. The housing team continues to explore options to create more opportunities for affordable and accessible housing. Delta Center also maintains an agreement with the Equal Housing Opportunity Council to assure multi-family housing units are meeting fair housing standards. . Connecting people to community resources through our information and referral services assisted 358 people during the year. Referrals ranged from financial assistance to transportation to in-home supports and health care services. There is no end to what people with disabilities will need in the way of community supports to remain independent. . Skills training, which can encompass self-advocacy, cooking, budgeting, etc. assisted 14 people this year. . Peer support services connect people with disabilities with each other in order to create natural support networks of people who have common, shared experiences. During the year Delta Center began our "Endeavour Program" designed to assist people with spinal cord injuries with both transitioning from rehabilitation to their new life with a disability as well as on-going peer support. This program served 136 people in its first six months. . Delta Center partners with Missouri Assistive Technology with their "TAP" program. This provides a free adapted telephone to anyone with a hearing or visual impairment who makes less than $60,000 per year. . Delta Center partners with the Veteran's Administration by providing veteran-directed in-home services in Warren, Lincoln, and Montgomery Counties. . Delta Center offers an equipment exchange program which provides durable medical equipment to people who otherwise cannot afford such items. During this year, Delta Center received 237 donated items. Eighty-six individuals received 300 pieces of DME equipment. . Delta Center offers an "Aging in Place" assessment designed to identify potential risks and barriers to someone wishing to age-in-place at home. The assessment also offers suggestions for supports and resources to mitigate risks as much as possible. . Delta Center partners with the St. Charles Community Council by providing work space for their coordinated entry team.
