Living Independently for Today & Tomorrow (LIFTT) has renewed its partnership with a long-time collaborator, The Montana Disability & Health Program (MTDH). In 2025, we are proud to work with MTDH on three projects that continue championing the rights, health, wellness, and independence of people with disabilities across our region.
Living Well in the Community (LWC) Workshops
LIFTT is training and supporting up to five facilitators to lead or co-lead LWC workshops, which promote self-determination, goal setting, and wellness for people with disabilities. These evidence-based workshops help participants develop skills to manage their health and daily life more effectively, offering encouragement and tools for independent living.
Accessibility Ambassadors Program
Our team works alongside community partners to conduct ADA Assessments and Inclusive Interdisciplinary Walk/Move (I²) Audits. These initiatives identify and reduce physical and systemic barriers, fostering more inclusive and accessible spaces in our neighborhoods. Accessibility Ambassadors play a vital role in ensuring that the built environment respects the rights and dignity of all community members.
Wellness Club and Linkage Events
LIFTT also hosts Wellness Club and Linkage events that connect consumers to peer support, health education, and community resources. These workshops build meaningful connections and reinforce a sense of belonging, empowerment, and holistic health among people with disabilities.
Each of these programs supports health, leadership, and community engagement, reflecting LIFTT’s commitment to promoting advocacy, accessibility, and inclusion to help Montanans with disabilities live fuller, more independent lives. We thank MTDH for their continued partnership with LIFTT and our consumers.
