🏠 The Imagining Home conference is a two-day exploration of typical and ordinary options for creating a home that is unique to each individual with disability.

We've invited an amazing lineup of speakers, including many people with disability who have successfully moved out of their family homes into places of their own.

Our speakers will demonstrate that the nature of a person’s impairment doesn’t prevent them from living in their own place, and that there are clever ways support can be put in place to ensure every person with disability is well supported to thrive.

Who should attend?
People with disability, their families, friends, allies, and the professionals who support them.
