Mission: ETCIL's Mission is to help people facing barriers related to their disabilities achieve full participation in their communities with greater independences, self-sufficiency and involvement in the community.
Results: ETCIL assist individuals with disabilities in various ways. One of those ways is through providing classes where individuals with disabilities can learn Independent Living Skills at our Skill Center. In addition to Independent Living Skills Training and Transition Youth Services, the Skill Center provides Vocational Rehabilitation Services, professional counseling, community trainings and special events. For the Vocational Rehabilitation Services a referral is needed from the Texas Workforce Commission Vocational Rehabilitation (TWC-VR). We also assist people with disabilities in managing monthly Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and other financial resources through our Representative Payee Program. Our Home By Choice program serves persons with disabilities, provide community awareness of accessible housing, relocation assistance, and transition services. Services are available to people of all ages with all types of significant disabilities currently residing in a skilled nursing facility. We also have sign language interpreters available for those who are deaf or hard of hearing. The Americans with Disabilities Act requires “equal access” for all persons with disabilities. Equal access may involve the right to a sign language interpreter to facilitate various communications upon the request of someone Deaf. Accommodations are required in medical, legal, employment, and educational settings wherein the service provider or business is responsible for providing a qualified interpreter. If you are needing assistance give us a call. We look forward to meeting you and seeing how we can help.
