The Dakota Center for Independent Living is a consumer-controlled nonprofit organization that helps people with disabilities direct their own lives and participate fully in their community. Core services include independent living skills training, peer support, individual and systems advocacy, information and referral, and transition services for youth and individuals transitioning from facilities to homes.

These supports turn big goals into clear steps, like setting up housing, arranging transportation, understanding Social Security and benefits, and working with schools or employers to remove barriers.

Services are available to people with significant disabilities across many categories, and the organization does not require medical records to get started. The Dickinson office offers local staff and phone support, allowing requests to be processed quickly and enabling you to choose the mix of coaching and advocacy that best suits your situation. Use this team to solve everyday access issues, learn new skills, and make informed choices about home, work, and community life.
