“There is this amazing feeling knowing that there is a safe place where people can feel welcome, comfortable, and have a place to lay their head and call home. Knowing that ILHS is that place for so many incredible people makes my heart full. Who wouldn’t want to be part of that!?”

Testimonials
As a very young and nearly graduated RCW, I walked into a job fair and handed my resume to the very first table I saw. Now, nearing 20 years, ILHS has not only been an organization that helps support people to live independently and with purpose, ILHS has become an extended family. They have consistently supported the workers to support the individuals in care. There have been times were we have all laughed so hard we cry, and times where tears float up because of long ago memories of pure butterfly moments. As staff, we are living and helping side by side with the Individuals we support and for this, I am truly grateful for that red door that opened all those years ago.
