Every three years states are required to submit a State Plan for Independent Living (SPIL) to the Administration for Community Living (ACL).
The purpose of the SPIL is to describe how the state’s network of independent living programs and services will meet the independent living needs of persons with disabilities in the state for the next three years.
The SPIL must address how federal, state and other funds will be used within the state to develop and maintain an IL program.
State Plans for Independent Living are jointly developed by the SILC and the Centers for Independent Living in the state, after public input from individuals with disabilities.
2025 – 2027 State Plan
After receiving public input from individuals with disabilities throughout MA, the State Plan Committee drafted the State Plan for federal fiscal years 2025-2027. The Massachusetts 2025-2027 State Plan was approved by the Administration for Community Living on September 16, 2024.
