Planning for housing is one of the most important and often most complex decisions facing individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. This webinar will provide an overview of the most common housing options available in Northern Virginia, helping participants better understand the range of choices that support different needs, goals, and levels of independence.

Attendees will learn about housing models that combine housing and support services, as well as options that provide housing only. The session will explore independent living, shared living arrangements, supported residential services, group homes, affordable housing opportunities, and other community-based options. Presenters will also discuss how housing can be funded through public benefits, private resources, or a combination of both.

Whether you are planning for the near future or looking ahead to long-term housing needs, this webinar will offer practical information, key considerations, and resources to help individuals and families make informed decisions about housing and support options.

Who should attend: Individuals with developmental disabilities, family members, caregivers, case managers, advocates, and professionals supporting housing and future planning.
