In 1978, The Mid-Ohio Board for an Independent Living Environment (MOBILE) “Disability Resource Center” was established by a group of disabled independent living advocates as a Center for Independent Living. Immediately after President George H. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in 1990 funding became available to establish more Centers for Independent Living throughout the United States. MOBILE, located in Central Ohio, continues to serve as one of the twelve “Centers for Independent Living” within the State of Ohio. For over 40 years MOBILE has worked in partnership with many local Key Stakeholders, National, State, and Federal agencies to bring about greater access and parity for disabled persons. Many victories throughout several decades have been accomplished because of MOBILE’s advocacy efforts.
