The Independent Living Centre of Western Australia (ILCWA) is a not for profit organisation staffed by teams of qualified and experienced health professionals who provide customers who have disabilities, mobility and accessibility problems with personalised assistance to find the best solution for their needs that will maximise their quality of life.

Solutions include information, advice, support and training about suitable assistive technology and equipment, funding options, assessment and referral pathways, linking to community services, respite options and culturally appropriate care. Our services are accessed by people with disability, older people, their carers, service providers, health professionals, educators and suppliers, and Home and Community Care services providers via the Commonwealth Respite and Carelink Centre.
