Helping individuals with disabilities strengthen daily living skills

Waking up with the alarm clock. Showering and brushing teeth. Meals, chores, and budgeting for the day.

Managing daily living is no small accomplishment.

CIF provides independent living skills tutoring and support for individuals who live in CLO Residences or on their own in North Chicago or the North Chicago Suburbs.

Tutors help individuals build skills in a variety of areas:

► Moving around safely in the community
► Practicing physical and mental well-being
► Exploring new interests; learning new things
► Participating in the community as an active citizen
► Managing money and a household
► Finding opportunities for social engagement
► Making new friends and building healthy relationships
► Pursuing a career
► And much more...

An individual’s skill levels, experience gaps, interests and support needs are identified through CIF’s Independent Living Readiness Inventory. Skills tutoring is delivered by a CIF-trained tutor and based on the Independent Living Skills Tool Kit.

Independent living support services are facilitated and contracted through CIF based on individual needs.
