WEBINAR Part One: Community Living Housing Options: Perspective on Barriers and Solutions from ACL/AoD

The Administration on Disabilities (AoD) is hosting a three-part series on safe, accessible, and affordable housing options for people with I/DD. The webinars will explore barriers people with I/DD face in securing housing; highlight the limited range of housing options; and feature innovative strategies, resources, partners, and funding streams to help create more housing options for people with I/DD. The series will center around the perspectives and experience of individuals with I/DD. The target audience for the series is broad and includes state agency staff (including DD and housing agencies), providers (disability and housing), advocates (disability and housing), researchers, individuals with I/DD, and families.

This webinar will:

• Provide a baseline understanding of the unique barriers people with I/DD face in getting housing in the community and their specific housing needs.
• Provide information on a broad array of Federal, State, and local programs and partnerships to address housing barriers and needs.
• Provide an opportunity to learn from the experiences and successes of self-advocates navigating barriers to secure accessible and affordable housing in the community.
