§ 3202. Legislative findings and declarations
The General Assembly finds and declares as follows:
(5) People with disabilities who could live and work in the community have been denied access to the full range of social opportunities and in many cases have been forced to live in institutions at State expense due to architectural, communication and attitudinal barriers, as well as a lack of appropriate independent living options.
(7) Notwithstanding the services provided by the Commonwealth to specific disability groups, the General Assembly, having heretofore appropriated State funds to support consumer-controlled centers for independent living, finds an immediate need to assure that all citizens of this Commonwealth who have a disability are afforded access to and control of the services provided by centers for independent living.
