South Florida Center for Independent Living

Welcome to the CIL of South Florida website!

If you’re a person with a disability of any age, you’ve come to the right place. We have what you need or we can help you find it. If you want advice, services, referrals, or help navigating the complex and confusing system of disability resources, we offer a staff composed mostly of people with different disabilities who can point you in the right direction because they have been successful advocating for themselves.

Communication is the key to our success. Our staff speaks Spanish, Creole, English, and American Sign Language. We provide our written information in Braille, large print, audiotape, and electronic format upon request.
