INCIL report: CIL directors weigh Home Modification renewal and increased CIL funding
Summary
INCIL representative Emily Witt said CIL directors are considering two primary legislative funding requests: renewal of Home Modification funding and increased funding for Centers for Independent Living, and are identifying leaders to engage legislators.
At the Feb. 4 meeting, INCIL representative Emily Witt reported ongoing discussions among Centers for Independent Living directors about legislative advocacy priorities. Witt summarized two primary funding asks under consideration: renewal of Home Modification funding and an increase in funding for Centers for Independent Living; directors are deciding whether to pursue one or both requests and which leaders will engage directly with legislators.
Witt urged coordination among council members and CIL directors to determine legislative strategy and identify spokespeople. No formal legislative action was taken by the Council at this meeting; the report functioned as an informational update and a cue for future advocacy planning.
