Housing Project
The goal of PACER's Housing Project is to develop information and resources to help parents of children and young adults with disabilities understand their options for independent living and housing. Parents are encouraged to begin thinking about these issues when their children are as young as 12 years old. This project helps parents understand why it is important to consider housing during the transition years, what housing options are available for their child, what supports and services exist, and what information and referral resources are available to meet their needs.
