The Florida Association of Centers for Independent Living (FACIL) is accepting applications for the James Patrick Memorial Work Incentive Personal Assistant Services program (JPPAS). The JPPAS program provides monthly stipends to qualified Floridians with disabilities who require personal assistance services for daily living. Read Jimmy Smith’s comment below about how JPPAS has helped him!

“I have been called a success story by many. Not only because I survived a near death experience over 31 years ago; but I also overcame many adversities of life. God has blessed me with a full time position which allows me the opportunity to help others with disabilities. I attribute much of my success to the JPPAS Program which affords me the opportunity to live independently, through the employment of an assistant to support me in daily activities. Because of the JPPAS Program I am able to support my family with dignity, respect and financially.”
