Martha Beach & Olivia Thomas: Navigating Housing with a Developmental Disability
Finding secure, affordable, and appropriate housing is hard enough. For those with developmental disabilities, plotting a course through the many, many barriers to housing and finding community on the other side is exponentially more difficult.
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Martha Beach and Olivia Thomas, Housing Navigators with Developmental Services Ontario, who explain their role and share tools and resources for individuals and families looking for stable, dignified, inclusive housing where they will be known, noticed, and missed.
