Accessible Housing Matters

There is a lot of talk out there about the housing affordability crisis. Often lost or forgotten in those dialogues is that for people with disabilities, most of the housing in the country is not accessible. For people with disabilities, and their families, finding suitable housing can often be one of THE major sources of anxiety and stress in their lives. And this subject is, for the most part, ignored by the mainstream media. This podcast is designed to raise awareness about all matters in the intersection of housing and accessibility. We will speak with knowledgeable experts about the challenges and issues associated with accessible housing. We will hear some success stories. We will share insights and knowledge. We will raise the level of awareness about the importance of accessibility in housing. Our goal? To share and spark new insights into creative ways to solve housing problems. And to improve the quality of the debate about housing in this country.
