The mission of Independence Landing is to build, own, and operate an affordable and safe residential community for adults with varying intellectual and/or developmental disabilities, allowing residents to successfully lead independent and fulfilled lives.
People with all abilities have access to the services and support they need, and the opportunities to achieve their full potential.
Every contribution helps us provide independence to those who need it most. Let’s continue to create a world where everyone has the chance to live, grow, and succeed.
Stay up to date with community news,opportunities to get involved, and #ResidentLife fun!
It’s our last call for #GivingTuesday, and we’re so close to reaching our goal. If you’ve been meaning to give—or even if you can’t donate but can share this post—we would be so grateful. Every single action tonight makes a difference.
At Independence Landing, safe, stable, and affordable housing isn’t just a roof over someone’s head. It’s dignity. It’s community. It’s the chance for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live with independence, purpose, and pride.
The need has never been greater. Rising housing costs and long waitlists mean many of our residents—and so many others like them—have nowhere else to go. Your support tonight helps ensure that Independence Landing remains a place where they can truly thrive.
Please consider making a Giving Tuesday gift before midnight, and share this post to help us spread the word. Together, we can meet our goal and keep this community strong.
💚 Give. Share. Support Independence.

“Thanksgiving is not only being aware of the abundance of good in the world but embracing it.” - Richelle E. Goodrich. 🫶
Happy Thanksgiving from us here at Independence Landing. We hope you all have a safe, happy holiday spent with friends and loved ones. 💚
Our office and Clubhouse will be closed today, 11/27, and tomorrow, 11/28 for the holiday. We will resume normal business hours 11/29.
Our residents had an un-fair-gettable time visiting the annual North Florida Fair (@northfloridafair) last week! 🎡🎪🎢
They got a chance to ride rides, win prizes, enjoy some delicious food, and make some memories with great friends along the way. 👫🎠
We are back with another installment of Meet the Team Mondays and would like to introduce our Independence Landing Board Treasurer, Cindi Goodson! 👏
Cindi is the President and CFO of the Flightline Group until her upcoming retirement in November 2025. Flightline is a regional aviation sales and service company providing aircraft sales, parts, avionics and aircraft maintenance services to the southeast region of the U.S. Cindi graduated from Florida State University in 1985 with a BS Degree in Accounting and received her CPA certification. She is married to Bart Goodson, and they have one son, Brantley, who is a resident of Independence Landing. 🏡
When asked why the work she does at Independence Landing is important to her, Cindi shared, "there is a tremendous and growing need in Tallahassee and beyond for safe and supportive housing for people with IDD. I wanted a place for people like my son to live independently and thrive. And for families to know their loved ones will be safe and loved after they are gone." 💫
We`re grateful to have Cindi as a part of our team, not only as a Board Member, but as an Independence Family member who understands the value of our mission. Thank you for all you do! 💚💛
#meettheteam
The last few weeks, our residents have been utilizing arts and crafts to connect their feelings to what they see in nature. 🌳🌸
One activity involved comparing flowers to positive affirmations we can tell ourselves during hard times. Petals are bright and unique, just like each of our residents, and represent positive things we can tell ourselves. We may have rainy days, but rain helps flowers grow, representing the things that help us feel better. Roots keep us strong like the people who get us through tough days. 💚 We`re grateful for the people and things who keep our gardens flourishing!
Volunteer Carla McLellan brought her pug to visit us and Cannonball became her best friend! 🐾 Impromptu pet therapy sessions make for some un-fur-gettable fun. 🥰
