It affirms that ones worth as a vital human being is not diminished because of a disability.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Building skills and confidence to live an independent lifestyle requires special programs - programs that provide peer support, assistance in purchasing needed equipment, hiring and managing a personal care attendant and a whole spectrum of services provided by professional persons. These programs and services are offered through Centers for Independent Living. L.I.F.E is the Independent Living Center serving St. Francois, Madison and Ste. Genevieve counties in southeast Missouri.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Independent Living also requires the cooperation of the community. It is hard to hold down a job, shop, or go to the movies when public transportation and buildings are not accessible. It is hard to exercise one's rights as an American to vote when voting booths are not accessible. When a community is educated on disability issues, it is for everyone to pull together and make living in the community better for everyone.</B></div> <div> <B>    ____________________________________</B></div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B>Mission Statement</B></div> <div> <B>Maximizing the Independence, Productivity and Empowerment of Individuals with disabilities.</B></div> <div> <B>And Promoting the Full Inclusion of Individuals with Disabilities into the Mainstream of Society.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></B></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
