WILTON — Southern Adirondack Independent Living (SAIL) relocated its Saratoga County office to 3065 NY-50, inside Wilton Mall. “Wilton Mall offers SAIL and the community we serve an accessible and innovative new location, more centrally located to the heart of Saratoga County,” said Tyler Whitney, deputy executive director of SAIL, a nonprofit organization that provides services to help people living with disabilities achieve the greatest level of independence possible.
With offices in Saratoga, Queensbury and Plattsburgh, SAIL provides an array of services, including a free medical equipment loan program, health insurance enrollment services including Medicaid and Medicare, home assistance and help with filling out community resource applications, among others. “This new space provides a warm environment in which our staff can continue to assist our community members on their journey toward independent living,” Whitney said. “We find that repurposing a location once used for retail is a trailblazing idea that can bring new life to shopping centers.”
Founded as Glens Falls Independent Living Center in 1988, SAIL opened offices in Saratoga in 1994 and Plattsburgh in 2013. The organization was renamed in 2007 to better reflect its commitment to providing services throughout the North Country, Glens Falls and Saratoga regions. The nonprofit organization is funded through donations and grants. To support SAIL and its services, visit their website: www.sailhelps.org.
