Midstate Independent Living Choices, Inc.

Midstate Independent Living Choices, Inc. Nonprofit organization empowering people toward independence. At that time we had less than 5 full-time employees attempting to cover 11 very rural counties.

In July 2000 Midstate Independent Living Choices, Inc., opened its doors as a newly-created Independent Living Center in Central and Northern Wisconsin. MILC now has approximately 300 employees and has created programming unique to meet the large need of individuals with disabilities. MILC staff provides resources to persons with disabilities current, changing and newly emerging needs in support of their individual independent living goals. MILC is invested in providing opportunities to empower and educate persons with disabilities to make informed choices, to help them learn and to self-advocate and inform the local, state and national community about issues of concern or need.

Let's Play is this Friday from 5-7!
Come check out the options for adapted equipment to play Xbox and Playstation. Adapted controllers, switches, consoles, and screens will be provided. We have 2 Xbox S Series, and 2 Playstation 5's, as well as many different games.

We will also be highlighting Dungeons and Dragons and showcase adapted tools to help everyone enjoy playing. We will also be featuring how we can use Dungeons and Dragons to help people with social anxiety, help people learn social skills, and provide opportunities for people to role play different scenarios they may face in the real world in a safe and explorative environment. We respectfully ask that any characters are kept PG.

If you have your own controllers, or supplies you are welcome to bring it with you. Staff will be on site to help with any setup and game play, but you'll be able to play as independently as possible. We are requesting as much pre-registration as possible, but you may also register at the door.
