Coordinating Center helps disabled individuals live their lives as independently as possible

For the first time in its 22-year history, The Coordinating Center, a Millersville, Md.-based nonprofit that helps people with disabilities live as independently as possible, is asking the public for donations.

According to Karen-Ann Lichtenstein, the center?s executive director, the reason for seeking for public support is that a major focus of the organization has been helping people, who are in nursing homes who may been involved in an accident or suffer from a chronic illness, re-enter the community.
