TORONTO’S 24-HOUR EMERGENCY NUMBERS

The Centre for Independent Living in Toronto (CILT) is a community-based resource organization run by people with disabilities for people with disabilities.

We have a vision of social and economic equity for people with disabilities as seen through the lens of Independent Living principles. We develop and implement services, programs and activities that empower individuals rather than create dependencies; we recognize that people with disabilities have the right to take control of their own lives, through increased knowledge and examination of options, making informed choices, and taking calculated risks; and we offer skills training programs to people with disabilities to successfully integrate into the community.
