"Nothing About Us Without Us"

Since Thrive CIL’s inception, it has established more than a dozen programs, and the Independent Living philosophy remains the heart of its mission. This philosophy simply affirms that all persons with disabilities have the right to choose and fully participate in all aspects of society. Thrive CIL is wholeheartedly committed to this philosophy and diligently works toward a continuum of comprehensive services for people with disabilities in Central Pennsylvania.

  • The mission of Thrive Center for Independent Living is to eliminate and prevent barriers that people with disabilities experience.

  • Thrive Center for Independent Living envisions a society where persons with disabilities fully participate in all aspects of life.
