Who do you want to live with?
What help might you need?
Everyone’s needs will be different and unique to their own circumstances. Down Syndrome NSW has a broad range of resources to help you prepare for, and make decisions about, your future housing needs.
The Summer Foundation has developed a ‘Housing tool kit’. This Housing toolkit is for both people with disability who require a high level of support and their families, to support decision-making regarding housing and support options within the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
Down Syndrome NSW is also happy to offer our Keynote Speaker Presentations shared at the 2022 Housing & Accommodation Conference for your information.
