Join us for a webinar featuring family members, including parents and siblings, as well as advocates of individuals with I/DD, as they share their personal experiences and insights on advocating for inclusive housing solutions. This discussion will highlight parent- and sibling-led initiatives that have created new housing opportunities, explore creative alternatives to traditional group homes, and provide guidance on how anyone supporting an individual with I/DD can advocate for better housing policies and funding. A sibling advocate will also discuss the challenges they’ve faced, the impact it has had on their life, and how these experiences have shaped their advocacy efforts. This webinar is designed to empower all supporters of individuals with I/DD to take an active role in shaping the future of I/DD housing, while acknowledging the emotional journey that drives their advocacy.
