The TLC vision is to provide technical assistance and training to all organizations on a fully customizable basis. Our model is steeped in the values and beliefs of consumer self-determination and equal access for all from the perspective of people who live with all types of disabilities. Our focus is primarily aimed at educating and providing disability cultural competence to key staff, managers, senior leaders, as well as other employees who have the responsibility to serve their clients and customers. In addition, TLC consults with municipalities and organizations that are in need of ADA Transition Plans and ADA Accessibility for their customers.
