Build independent living skills

Build independent living skills. Check the named provider’s programme and service area.

Before you start

Choose your county to find the providers listed by California SILC. The 28 centres are separate organizations; a branch or regional provider may be in another county.
Some service areas use ZIP codes or programme-specific rules. County maps help you browse; they do not establish eligibility at your address.
Check the named branch before visiting. Appointment, drop-in, phone and office times differ. The directory shows current quoted contacts and selected local instructions with their sources.
State core-service descriptions appear once here. Local intake, capacity, equipment costs and specialized programme eligibility must be checked with the provider. ILC housing and attendant referrals do not guarantee housing, a paid caregiver or a benefit decision.
