Resources & tools

Through our research and consultation with people in the housing ecosystem, we curated a range of tools and resources from Canada and internationally that support neuroinclusive housing. These resources and tools are intended for a variety of users and are in various formats. Although some are tailored to a geographic area, we think they can serve as a source of inspiration that can be adapted to unique needs. We will regularly update our collection as we learn more. We welcome two-way knowledge exchange and invite you to share resources with us that you find helpful.

Organization

Building on the Housing from an Autism Lens (HAL) Blueprint, we connected these resources to the eight HAL elements identified as requirements for safe, secure and empowering housing experiences. Housing should no longer be perceived as only bricks and mortar. Each element should be considered when making housing decisions, designing, or retrofitting spaces, and establishing safe and supportive housing environments.

Many resources align with multiple elements, which emphasizes interrelationship and a recognition that successful housing depends on multiple factors. Therefore, we added the category of Broad Toolkits that contains resources addressing multiple elements. We will continue to refine and add more categories as we collect and curate more.

In this category, you will find resources on self-determination, self-advocacy, factors that promote independent living, and the role of technology in self-determination. There are also workbooks to help plan with transitions and moving. Some resources are region-specific, but contains valuable general information.
