IL Conversations, hosted by the University of Arkansas CURRENTS, are held on the 2nd Thursday of the month. IL Conversations provide IL practitioners with an opportunity to talk with colleagues about the nuts and bolts of running a center for independent living and providing core and other services, as well as, to address broader state and national issues impacting CILs, SILCs, and people with disabilities.

There is no registration fee.
Simply call in from a quiet location and join the discussion or just listen in.

Different facilitators who are currently working in the field will join us each month to lead the discussion,
answer questions and refer participants to additional resources.
