Ozark Independent Living (O.I.L.) is a non-profit, non-residential organization based in West Plains, Missouri, serving residents across several surrounding counties. Its primary focus is assisting people with disabilities through a range of supports that emphasize consumer power, self-reliance, and rights, including information and referral, peer support, skills training, and advocacy. The organization also provides services such as sign language classes, magnifiers, home modifications, and transitions from nursing homes, aiming to help individuals live more independently in the community. O.I.L. operates from a facility staffed by people who themselves have disabilities, reflecting a peer-oriented approach to its services. The office is located at 109 Aid Ave in West Plains and, beyond its local city, serves Howell, Ozark, Oregon, Shannon, Wright, Douglas, and Texas counties. A notable development in its recent history includes the retirement of long-time executive leadership at the end of 2020. The organization functions within the consumer services sector, aligning with local disability resources and partnerships such as collaborations seen with other community service entities.
