LINC Inc Annual Meeting 2020
Things sure looked different at this year's Annual Meeting! Covid-19 kept us from having our normal dinner and being able to socialize with everyone but it didn't keep us from having a good time! This year's theme was Embracing Change and our keynote speaker, John Herring Executive Director of Illinois Network of Centers for Independent Living, totally rocked it!. In this video we also discussed our year and revealed LINC Staff of the Year! Take a look! -
In Celebration of the ADA!
The Americans with Disabilities Act, signed 31 years ago today, has had a tremendous impact on American society. The changes that resulted from the ADA have benefited all American's, not just those with disabilities. Physical barriers have come down; policies have been rewritten; and attitudinal barriers changed from isolation to inclusion!
So, we invite you to celebrate this special day with us. Share how your community is more inclusive today! -
