ABOUT US
Wright Independent Life Options (WILO NJ)
As an answer to the call to create housing options for adults with Special Needs, Keldrick Wright formed WILO NJ in Maplewood NJ in October of 2014.
WILO NJ set out to provide an unique path where persons with disabilities could learn independent living skills such as social skills, laundry skills, community awareness and safety, cooking skills, personal care, wellness and other skills needed to enjoy life more independently. WILO NJ is an approved New Jersey Medicaid Provider Agency.
Our Beliefs
WILO NJ believes that every person, regardless of ability, has the right to be a part of the greater community and be viewed and treated as valued members of society.
WILO NJ believes in providing individuals who have disabilities the skills and experiences to build confidence, promote community participation and inclusion.
Our Programs
WILO NJ offers a variety of services and programs such as overnight respites, weekend travel and socialization, housing and other initiatives.
As various program facets of WILO NJ become available, we’ll be sure to update the website. For now, be on the look out for the highly anticipated WILO Weekends program to return.
The programs will resume when it’s reasonably safe to do so.
