Building a disability-forward housing future requires going beyond basic accessibility requirements to create homes and communities that work for everyone. Rather than checking boxes to meet the legal minimum, we should be asking a bigger question: How do we design homes where neighbors with and without disabilities thrive?
Kyle, our Inclusive Design Manager, and Allie, our Managing Director, joined The Ohio State University’s “Cities for All” speaker series to answer this very question. Kyle and Allie gave participants tools for applying disability-forward housing principles to their work, including lessons from the Inclusive Design Standards and actions cities can take to increase the number of affordable, accessible, and inclusive homes.
Thank you to The Ohio State University College of Social Work, Center for Urban and Regional Analysis, and United Way of Central Ohio for having us!
