Webinar: Partnerships to Increase Housing Stability Through Assistive Technology and Home Modifications & Repairs

Monday August 7 2023, 12:00 PM - Monday August 7 2023, 1:00 PM
@ Online
Although 40% of American households include someone who needs accessibility features to live independently, most homes in the U.S. do not have those features. Increasing a person’s access to home modification and repair services and assistive technology (AT) can decrease their risk of living unhoused or in an institution.
Join the Housing and Services Resource Center (HSRC) for a webinar to explore the role of home modifications, AT, and home repairs in promoting accessible, stable housing and learn how service providers can join forces to increase access to them. Participants will learn about:
  • The connection between accessibility and housing stability.
  • Federal programs that provide related funding and services. 
  • How to develop partnerships that improve service coordination.
  • Types of organizations that could be effective partners.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on joining the webinar. The event will include real-time captioning and ASL interpreting. If you need additional accommodations or have questions, please email HSRC@acl.hhs.gov.
