Peer-to-Peer Mentoring
- One of the key foundations upon which Independent Living was established and continues to thrive, is the concept of learning from one's peers. People with disabilities know best what works and what does not work for them. We believe that "experience is the best teacher" when it comes to operating a CIL or SILC as well.
