RCIL Friends Group

Posted June 8, 2023 by Beth in

Once a month RCIL hosts four in-person RCIL Friends group meetings and one online RCIL Friends group meeting.  What is RCIL Friends group?  RCIL Friends are groups of individuals who all experience disability and meet monthly to address disability needs and issues in the community.  They also share information about disability related topics such as health and wellness, safety, transportation, and direct support worker concerns.  The groups also use their time together to do crafts or other recreational activities. 

Below is the RCIL Friends Groups monthly meeting schedule.
