About the training

Presenters address the recent national survey conducted by the Collaborative on Health Reform and Independent Living (www.chril.org). As 144 administrators at Centers for Independent Living (CILs) reported their consumers and staff are currently experiencing significant medical and support service disruptions and difficulties in accessing personal protective equipment.

The CHRIL, in partnership with the IL-NET at ILRU (www.ilru.org) and the National Council on Independent Living (www.ncil.org), invited all CIL administrators to complete a CHRIL/IL-NET COVID-19 Needs Assessment. A summary of survey findings and a downloadable report were put on the CHRIL website on July 1, 2020, please see www.chril.org/covid19.

This training is a stand-alone presentation to educate and inform staff and board of centers. To learn more about the data and survey findings, contact the CHRIL principal investigator, Professor Jae Kennedy, jjkennedy@wsu.edu.
