Welcome To Your local ILRC Thunder Bay!


We strive to provide a broad range of comprehensive services through programs to persons with disabilities as well as education and inclusion support to our community and region.

Our focus is the promotion and adherence to the Independent Living Philosophy (IL).  We do not so much believe in doing for others, as we do in educating others to do for themselves.  This is the spirit of IL in our Centre and community. We are proud members of the nationally based Independent Living Canada (formerly Canadian Association of Independent Living Centres) and are thus part of a national network of similar IL Centres throughout all the provinces of Canada.

If you are a person with a disability; a family member or friend of a person with a disability; an employer of a person with a disability; or the general public in need of information and answers related to any disability issue:  Contact Us Today!
