Please Join Curtis Harris and Julie Nelson in learning more about Supportive Housing. Curtis and Julie will share information about supportive housing, a housing option that is affordable, independent housing in the community with individualized supports. We will talk about what supportive housing is, how to access it, and where to learn more. Curtis will also share his perspective on self-advocates choosing the housing option that is right for them!

Curtis Harris is an activist, organizer, leader, and self-advocate working towards disability rights and autism acceptance. In January 1984, Curtis was the first student to enroll in the newly created autism program in Chicago Public Schools. He is a board member with Chicagoland Autism Connection and has worked with organizations including Access Living, ADAPT, Refuse Fascism, and numerous other working towards civil rights and health care for all.

At CSH, Julie Nelson works to expand supportive housing as an option for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. She also works on initiatives focused on using housing as an intervention to improve health.

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
