Mission Statement

The mission of Living Independence for Everyone (L.I.F.E.), Inc., is to empower people with disabilities to achieve equal rights, equal opportunities and integration into our community.

Service Area

We provide services to people living in one of the following 11 counties in southeast Georgia: Bryan, Bulloch, Camden, Chatham, Effingham, Evans, Glynn, Liberty, McIntosh, Tattnall and Toombs.

Goals and Objectives

The primary goal of LIFE is to give the right tools to individuals with disabilities so they can become as independent and as fully involved in their community as they want to be.
LIFE’s fundamental approach to assisting people with disabilities to achieve independence is based upon these four key objectives:

Consumer Control: Directed by persons with significant disabilities through consumer, board and staff participation.
Cross Disability Orientation: Reaches as many disability groups as possible.
Community Focus: Provide services in our local communities.
Non Residential Focus: Focuses on non-institutional settings for individuals.

Who We Are

Living Independence for Everyone (LIFE), Inc., is a non-profit advocacy organization operated by and for people with disabilities. We embrace the independent living philosophy, the core concepts of which are: consumer control, self-advocacy, community change and cross-disability participation. We firmly believe that everyone, regardless of disability, has the right to make his or her own informed decisions.
