Access 2 Independence is now offering food box deliveries in partnership with HACAP and Kelly’s Kitchen! If you or someone you know with a disability is food insecure, let us know and we will deliver a 25 lb box of non-perishable food to your door in the counties we serve (Johnson, Linn, Jones, Cedar, Iowa, Washington, Henry, and Benton). For more information email us at info@access2independence.org or call us at 319-338-3870.
Access 2 Independence is excited to offer personal hygiene care packages to individuals with disabilities in Benton, Linn, Jones, Iowa, Johnson, Cedar, Washington, or Henry counties. These care packages have been made possible by a generous grant from the Delta Dental of Iowa Foundation and the CARES Act in response to the COVID-19 crisis.
Care packages may contain the following: rolls of toilet paper, bars of antibacterial soap, liquid hand soap, laundry detergent pods, liquid hand sanitizer, and a protective face mask if needed.
For more information email us at info@access2independence.org or call us at 319-338-3870.
Access 2 Independence has been diligently monitoring the spread of COVID-19 here in Iowa to keep our community, consumers, and staff informed. While COVID-19 has affected our office policies, it will not stop us from continuing to provide quality services to persons with disabilities to remain independent in the community. We will be compiling and updating a library of resources as it pertains to the disability community to help you get the information you need. If there’s any resources you come across that you think we should share, please email info@access2independence.org.
The Center for START Services: COVID-19 Resources (Resources geared toward supporting individuals with IDD and their families, including resources for language access and translated materials are being updated daily)
ACCESS: Update on coronavirus (for intellectual and developmental disability community)
Austism Society of America: COVID-19 Toolkit (information on Mental Health & Respite, Modifying Routines, Lifestyle Supports, Education, Public Policy, etc.)
