The Disabilities Network of Eastern Connecticut, Inc. (DNEC), incorporated in 1988, is one of five federally mandated Centers for Independent Living in Connecticut providing advocacy, peer support, independent living skills training, and information and referral services to individuals with disabilities and their families.  We work to enable individuals in eastern Connecticut to live independently in the community.

We know people’s lives can change.  We know that it is possible to live and work a full and meaningful life within our communities.  Each of us has special perspectives and gifts that make all of us, together, stronger.  We know this because we live this message every day.

Your membership gives DNEC the power to say to decision-makers and funders that we represent people in eastern Connecticut. 

Members demonstrate support for DNEC that can help us further the goals of choice, community inclusion, and independence for persons with disabilities. 

Members are invited to participate in our Annual Meeting and other events during the year.

Membership is NOT required to receive DNEC services.
