We envision a community which provides inclusion, independence and self-determination for persons of all abilities. Mission Delta is the symbol for change. The service area for the agency includes the Missouri counties of St. Charles, Lincoln and Warren. The agency was formed in 1997 by a group of local citizens with disabilities and other persons concerned about disability issues. DCIL is a freestanding center that has the support of local legislators and other service agencies.
Funding is provided by the State of Missouri and donations from businesses and individuals.
All donations to Delta Center for Independent Living are tax deductible. Advocacy is also provided on a state and national level for disability rights and increased accessibility. A library of resources is maintained on a wide variety of topics relating to disabilities. Staff and volunteers will research a topic and compile materials upon request. Referral to other appropriate agencies will also be provided as needed.
