Thinking About Home and Housing for a Loved One with a Disability?
Imagining Home is a vibrant family-led group, anchored in the belief that rather than grouping and setting people with disabilties apart, it is only in the ordinary, diverse and vibrant communities where we find places of true belonging, mutual relationships and natural safeguards. Together, we focus on people’s inherent value, uncover their contributions and how these weave together in creating and sustaining more resilient neighbourhoods. Home, housing and support, although intermingled, are thought of as separate pieces in a larger vision to be figured out one person at a time.
Guided by a set of foundational principles, this highly engaged group of families meet monthly to think about and discuss their individual housing plans, the importance of community, neighbourhood, connection and what makes for real home. Families share their knowledge and experience and take a critical look at current housing issues within the Region of Durham. They explore new ideas and challenge perceptions of what is possible and support other families as they each take steps in their own journey.
This group meets in-person on the second Wednesday of every month from 6:30-8pm. Interested in coming out? New members are welcome! Get in touch with Erin prior to a meeting for an introductory call.
Have you completed one of the Making the Most series here at DFR? If so, you are welcome to join the study group happening once a month. This time will be spent delving more deeply into some of the topics covered in the series. If there is something you wanted to work through, an idea, an interest, an opportunity – this is the place to get some feedback and support to do so!
Give Laura a call or email if you’d like to know more, or to RSVP!
