The Philosophy of Indendent Living
Indendent Living asserts the right of all persons regardless of age, type or extent of disability to live in the community…with all the duties and privileges that this entails.
“The essence of Independent Living is the freedom to make decisions about your own life and to participate fully in your community” (John Evans, Independent Living Conference, London, 1989).
“The cornerstone of Independent Living Philosophy is… control and choice… Systems advoacy is of ultimate importance because some choices for disabled people still need to be created” (Cassie Holden, 2000 Vision Statement, Birmingham).
