Missouri Survey: MO Statewide Independent Living Council (MOSILC) has developed an Annual Statewide Needs Assessment to gather information about your community’s needs, opinions, and challenges for people with disabilities. It is MOSILC’s hope that gathering this feedback will provide MOSILC with important direction on how to support people with disabilities within your community. We are hopeful this new survey will provide the CILs and MOSILC with data that can be used in the planning process for the next several years.
✅ Please take a moment to complete the survey and share with members of your family, friends, or community to help us continue supporting the needs of Missouri residents. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MOSILCNeedsAssessment2023
