| THE OHIO INDEPENDENT LIVING ASSOCIATION (OHILA) |
| OUR MISSION STATEMENT The Ohio Independent Living Association (OHILA) exists to provide leadership, advocacy, training and networking opportunities for Independent Living programs and youth throughout the state of Ohio. This professional support is committed in serving and preparing Ohio’s youth for Independent Living and transitioning into adulthood. |
History
The Ohio Independent Living Association was
formed out of necessity. The necessity was our
youth. Caregivers and youth professionals
realized that our youth in care were emancipating
and not having the self-sufficiency skills needed
to be successful in the community.
The Ohio Independent Living Association is a
Nonprofit Corporation.

The Goals of OHILA
Our goal is to share with each other the
community services we use to help the youth
in and out of care. The resources and needs
differ around the state. Networking and
sharing what we know allows us to learn
innovative ways to better serve our youth and
address their needs the best we can. We
meet quarterly in State meetings and in
Regional meetings. See our Calendar Page
for meeting dates!! We welcome all those
who work with youth in public and private
sectors.
