Home is a vital part of our lives. It not only provides us with security, privacy, comfort and control but it reflects our identity, our adulthood and our deep sense of who we are and how we connect and belong in our neighbourhood. Yet for many people, particularly with intellectual disability and other complex disabilities, home is designed by others with little control over the decisions that most people take for granted.
Do you have a disability and want to understand more about creating an Individualised Living Option (ILO) so that you can live in your own home?
Do you want to find out more about how you can be supported in your own home, because you want to explore options beyond the traditional ‘group home’ models?
The National Alliance of Capacity Building Organisations (NACBO) are working on a project to assist people with a disability, their allies and families to explore Individualised Living Options.
