I am experiencing so many bad things with this company Lots of promises that nobody follows through with, its been over a year I don't know where to start to tell you my opinion of this company and I will not waste my time anymore. When they actually do some work for me Maybe I will go back and revisit this review.

IndependenceFirst provides services for people with disabilities with a focus on independent living within the community. We help people set and meet their goals and work for accessibility within the community. And, if there's a service we don't provide, we will refer you to an organization who can provide that service.
