This is a full-day in-person workshop exploring individualised and innovative ways that people with disability have used to create their own homes while getting the support they need. Registration is free thanks to funding from the Department of Social Services.
What this workshop is about:
Home is a vital part of our lives. It provides us with security, privacy, comfort and control. It also reflects our identity, adulthood, and a deep sense of who we are and how we connect and belong in our neighbourhood.
Yet for many people, particularly those with intellectual disability and Autism, home is designed by others. Individuals are left with little control over the decisions that most people take for granted. Some families wonder if it’s even possible for their family members to live in their own homes.
In this practical and interactive workshop, we will explore individualised and innovative ways that people with disability have used to create their own homes while getting the support they need.
