Mission Statement

The Mid-Ohio Board for an Independent Living Environment (MOBILE) is a non-profit Center for Independent Living directed by persons with disabilities. MOBILE was founded on principles that affirm the right of persons with disabilities to live their lives with a full measure of liberty and human dignity.

MOBILE's mission is:

• To work in partnership with persons with all types of disabilities as independent, active and valuable advocates within central Ohio. To promote the importance of value of persons with disabilities as individuals, employees, and citizens within central Ohio.
• To be a driving force for the independent living movement within central Ohio through communicating the movement's value and necessity, educating the community at large, and facilitating government and business action.
• To assist the public and private sectors in removing attitudinal, environmental, and architectural barriers in order to increase opportunities to all persons.
• To ultimately eliminate the need for itself through full integration of persons with all types of disabilities into society.
