📢 No Cuts to CILs!

Restore Funding to CILs Rally
📆 Monday, May 18, 2026
⌚ 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM
📌 NJ State House Annex, 145 West State Street, Trenton, NJ
Join us for a rally to help restore $3 million for NJ Centers for Independent Living!
New Jersey's proposed state budget eliminates $3 million in funding for CILs…reducing it to $0.
CILs help people with disabilities:
- Live independently
- Avoid institutionalization
- Access jobs and community life
- Build skills for everyday living
Stand with advocates, families, and community members to demand:
- Restore the $3 million
- Protect community-based services
- Support independence and dignity
$3 million is a small investment, but without it, the cost to people with disabilities and families is immeasurable.
If you have any questions, please contact Donald Campbell at (609)748-2253, ext. 5.
