Disability Resource Association, Inc. operates as a Center for Independent Living, providing services to individuals in Jefferson and surrounding counties who have disabilities and meet the criteria of the Americans with Disabilities Act, regardless of age or type of disability. Based in Festus, Missouri, the organization focuses on helping people maintain independent lifestyles and live in their own homes, drawing support from state and private grants, administrative fees, and private donations as it does not receive local tax support. Founded as a free-standing 501(c)(3) in 1998, DRA has grown from serving fewer than 100 individuals annually to serving thousands, reflecting a broadened reach within its service area. The center’s work is situated within the consumer services landscape, aiming to empower people with disabilities to navigate daily life with greater independence.
