Central Washington Disability Resources is a non-residential center for independent living, providing assistance through independent living planning, peer support, advocacy, information, and referral.  For over 25 years, CWDR has enhanced our communities through advancing the empowerment, inclusion, and wellness of all persons with disabilities through advocacy, community education, peer mentoring, and skill development so that they may realize independence and full participation in all areas of life.
INDEPENDENT LIVING PLANNING Eligible persons with disabilities may qualify for independent living planning. Independent Living Specialists can assist with identifying and navigating complex social service systems, housing, transportation, preparing for employment, identifying accomodations, personal assistance management, benefits planning, and advocacy.
PEER MENTORING Over 51% of our staff and governing board are persons with significant disabilities. CWDR staff provide personal experience and knowledge of disability-related challenges.
COMMUNITY AND SYSTEMS CHANGE CWDR advocates for services and programs that ensure equal access and quality community-based living options for persons with disabilities.
