STATEMENT OF PURPOSE RS07589 The purpose of this legislation is to expand independent living opportunities offered by Idaho's Centers for Independent Living to the State's approximately 294,263 citizens with disabilities by: Providing a tax credit to Idaho citizens who donate funds to Idaho Centers for Independent Living (CILs) will encourage Idahoan's to donate to CILs. Originally funded by Congress in 1981 under the Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, CIL's provide Idahoans with the benefit of services offered to people with disabilities. These services enable people with disabilities to live at home, at a significantly lower cost to the State than if they were to live in institutions. FISCAL NOTE This legislation will have minimal fiscal impact for the State, but will provide significant relief for the limited budgets of the Idaho Centers for Independent Living. No new funding would be required as a result of this legislation; however, revenue from income taxes totaling approximately $3,876 per fiscal year would not be collected by the State.
