OSCIL has developed this site to assist persons having disabilities, their family and friends, service providers and the community at large with a variety of information that may help to break down the barriers to independence and increase access in home and community. 

Please use the links on the left to find specific areas of interest and to find answers to some of your questions, such as:  

• How do I get in touch with my Congressman? 
• Where can I get a ramp so that I can independently enter and exit my home?
• Are there devices that can assist me to be more independent in the kitchen, such as one-handed can openers and easy grip utensils ?
   

Some of the services OSCIL provides are Advocacy, Deaf Services, and Disability Awareness. Click here for a complete list of our services.

As a way to update consumers and service providers with information on disability issues, OSCIL publishes a quarterly newsletter, SIGNS OF INDEPENDENCE.
