The Need
Adults with autism and/or other intellectual/developmental disabilities (A/I/DD) face a critical shortage of housing options and access to supports they need to thrive.
To drive future planning, funding and advancements in public policy, the First Place Global Leadership Institute’s Make Waves Center for Community Development completed a comprehensive housing market analysis of needs and preferences in Greater Phoenix.

Work together

In advance of identifying needs and preferences, First Place hosted a virtual gathering to request input from and inform stakeholders with A/I/DD and their family members/guardians of available housing and service delivery options.
This effort also enlisted input from local leaders with a vested interest in meeting the unique needs of special populations.
