This Community Insight connects these topics by applying a neuroinclusive lens to affordable housing.<\/p>\n<p>In October 2024, we attended the &#8220;Exploring Affordable Housing Solutions for People with Diverse Abilities&#8221; event with the Intentional Community Consortium in Kitchener, Ontario.
