Darryl is now taking steps toward living independently, thanks to accessible upgrades made to his CILA home. With a room designed to meet his needs, featuring an accessible bathroom and enough space for him to move freely in his wheelchair, he now experiences greater comfort, autonomy, and confidence in his daily life.
Terry couldn’t safely travel in his neighborhood due to a lack of sidewalks. In June 2016, Terry invited Curt Buescher from Charleston’s Public Works Department to CTF’s Advocacy program to plan city sidewalk renovations.
For the next three years, he regularly followed up on the sidewalk’s status, and finally, in April 2019, construction began! The project finished in February 2022, and for the first time in two decades, Terry enjoyed a trip around his block.
