The Northwest Georgia Center for Independent Living (NWGA CIL) is excited to host its Open House and Silent Auction on February 26, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at its location at 527 Broad Street, Suite 101 in Rome.

This event invites the community to learn about the CIL’s important services aimed at empowering individuals with disabilities. Attendees will have the chance to meet the staff, tour the facility, and explore the free services available in 18 counties, including Chattooga and surrounding counties, through services such as advocacy, peer support, and skills training.

The Silent Auction aims to raise funds for the CIL’s programs and services, and the organization is seeking donations such as gift cards, jewelry, and home goods. A spokesperson emphasized the community’s role in supporting free services for individuals with disabilities. Donations can be dropped off at the center or arrangements can be made for pick-up.
