Life is Hard for Most of Us
It's Almost Impossible
For Our Loved Ones

One of the most heartbreaking things I've ever heard was a statement made by a 90 year old mother whose son with special needs was 72 years old. She said, "I want my son to die before I do, then I want to die the next day."

This mom knew it would be impossible for her son to live without her. 

This cold hard fact breaks my heart.

That's why I founded Special Needs Housing Forever.  

Our loved ones with special needs deserve A Home to Call Their Own.

We Are Their World,
What Happens When Their World Is Gone?

Where Will They Live When We Have No More To Give?

Here are the sobering facts we face as special people, caring for our special people.

 

Did you know that less than 6% of all housing is accessible to people with special needs? You might be asking yourself how can my son or daughter live an independent life, if they don't even make doors wide enough to accommodate their needs? 

 

According to TheKelsey.org less than 12% of people with intellectual or developmental disabilities (I/DD) rent or own their own home. What we may take for granted every day is what our special loved ones dream of doing. Does your son or daughter want to have friends over to visit in their own home, to cook and eat the foods they enjoy, to go to work or program and come home to relax in A Home To Call Their Own?

And one of the scariest, heartbreaking fact of all, adults with disabilities are 4x more likely to experience homelessness than adults without. I don't want to even imagine my beautiful, sweet daughter living in a shelter or worse.....

Everyone Needs a Decent Place to Live
    A Home to Call Their Own

  • A Self-Determined Life 

        We want our loved ones to live as independently

          as possible. To create a life they love, in a home

          they enjoy. 

  • Affordable Housing  

         No one should have to choose between buying food &                  medicine or paying rent. Many of our loved ones with ​                  special needs have a very low income. Often without the            ability to gain employment to increase the income                          needed to pay rents in todays market.

  • Increased Mobility

        Enjoy the freedom of an accessible life. Access to                        housing that allows our loved ones to live a full                              life, wider doorways, low countertops, grab bars in                      bathrooms and assistive technology. 

           

  • Long Term Security 

        A home should be a place you can depend on, affordable            and stable. Feel confident knowing your special person              is safe in the comfort of their own home, in a                                  community they love.

  • Peace of Mind 

        No more staying awake at night worrying about your                    loved one and their future. Create a home and a plan to                help them get settled and protect them as you age.
