The Independent Living Skills (ILS) Coordinator plays a key role in supporting students’ growth in daily living, self-management, and independence. This role combines direct student support, coordination of programming, and collaboration with center leadership and staff. The ILS Coordinator serves as both a mentor and a coordinator, helping students build practical life skills while ensuring consistency, structure, and follow-through across the center.

Make an Impact:
CLE is a comprehensive transitional support program for young adults diagnosed with Autism, AD/HD, and/or learning disabilities. Our students are working towards living independent adult lives and they wouldn’t be able to meet this goal without the support of individuals like you.
