NCIL’s 2017 Annual Conference on Independent Living will be held July 24-27 in Washington, DC. Generous support from sponsors, exhibitors, and advertisers last year resulted in a Conference of nearly 1,500 participants! We seek your partnership as we begin to prepare for our 2017 Annual Conference celebration.

Due to last year’s attendance, NCIL’s tremendous successes in 2016, and excitement surrounding the theme, the buzz has already started for this year’s Annual Conference on Independent Living, Revolution – A Global Independent Living Movement.

Our Sponsorship Opportunities Booklet outlines opportunities for your consideration. We hope that you thoughtfully consider this opportunity to be part of our celebration and growth, and invite you to invest in our efforts to ensure equality for people with disabilities throughout the United States.

• Then, complete the commitment form online.

The National Council on Independent Living (NCIL) is the longest-running national cross-disability and cross-age grassroots organization run by and for people with disabilities.

Again, we appreciate your review of our exciting sponsorship, exhibiting, and advertising opportunities. Contact Cara Liebowitz at [email protected] for further information.
