Join us for this panel discussion on the key elements of housing design to support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and complex mental health. This webinar provides best practices in construction and rebuild models (renovations).  Speakers will share recommendations on building materials, architectural design considerations for purpose-built homes. Attendees will also learn how to modify existing spaces and create comfortable environments that improve the quality of life for occupants.

This topic will be of interest to individuals or organizations supporting those with intellectual and developmental disabilities and complex mental health. Family members, housing design contractors, health and safety practitioners, clinical support workers, and other service providers will also benefit from attending.
