Welcome to ILO! We hope that you are enjoying your visit to our website, a peek into the world of inclusive, integrated, intentional communities for adults with disabilities.
Here at ILO, we use our blog as a way to keep our visitors connected to the ILO community of self-advocates and participating families. We encourage you to visit this blog often, as we will be posting regular updates as to ILO’s progress as we work towards the creation of inclusive, intentional communities for our self-advocates in Maryland and Washington, D.C.
ILO is committed to ensuring that all our participating families and self-advocates have the tools and resources necessary to build successful futures; this blog will also act a resource to help us achieve this goal. We will often post articles that discuss special needs financial and life planning tips and techniques, updates as to political and governmental changes to disability policy, summaries of newly released reports and studies relevant to the special needs community, and much, much more.
We also encourage you to take a moment to explore our website. Our Glossary is a great resource to anyone that is new to our ILO community, and our FAQ is a quick way to access information that many families require as they get to know what we are all about. As well, please take a moment to Meet Pete and Darren. Pete and Darren are our hypothetical ILO self-advocates, the dream that got the ILO ball rolling. We hope that they inspire you to dream of the great futures we can help our self-advocates to build for themselves.
If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact us. We would love to meet you and learn all about the dreams you have for your family with special needs. And, don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter so that our weekly blog and all of our important information is delivered right to your inbox.
From all of us here at ILO, again, Welcome. And, thanks for stopping by.
