Memphis Center For Independent Living

MCIL's goal is an integrated community that equally welcomes all members. The Memphis Center for Independent Living works so that people with disabilities in the Memphis area may live independently. We believe that there is nothing more disabling than pity. People with disabilities are a powerful and significant part of our community, yet; as a group our social roles have been marginalized by bigotry, discrimination, poverty, isolation, dependency and pity. Americans with disabilities have not had access to transportation, housing and employment that other citizens have enjoyed; MCIL will change that. MISSION STATEMENT Our mission is to facilitate the full integration of persons with disabilities into all aspects of community life.
