Affordable Accessible Housing
When it comes to living well with MS, accessible affordable housing can be critical to maintaining independence and remaining engaged in the community. Whether seeking to renegotiate a mortgage, arrange home modifications, apply for rental vouchers, or explore affordable assisted living; navigating the maze of agencies and funding sources supporting these alternatives and services can be daunting.
The most critical first step is to do some careful thinking and planning ahead of time. You want to seek as many ideas and suggestions as possible from those who have familiarity with the various housing options. You also want to decide on a method for organizing all of the paperwork that will be involved.
The Society’s Affordable Accessible Housing: A Guide for People with MS helps evaluate housing needs and better understand the range of housing options available to people living with MS.
