San Antonio Community Resource Directory

Since 1981, San Antonio Independent Living Services (SAILS) has worked to make San Antonio and the surrounding counties a better place to live, work and play for people with disabilities.

SAILS mission is to advocate for the rights and empowerment of people with disabilities, and to provide services needed to increase their self-determination and independence.

SAILS is both a federal and state designated center for independent living, and routinely goes above and beyond its mandate to provide the following core services: advocacy, independent living skills, peer support and information and referrals.

Finally, SAILS employs people with disabilities who are experienced and understand the needs of our consumers. SAILS consumers, likewise, enjoy coming to meet with the staff. Consumers know they will receive quality services. Their success is truly our success!
