Aimed at families of children with autism/learning disabilities who display challenging behaviour, this guide offers practical advice on the choices they have to get housing or adapt current housing to meet their needs. Specifically, the guide examines: what families say they need from housing; how families can manage their situation with better housing; how they can get the housing they need; paying for housing and adaptations; what the law says about housing for families of disabled children; and how to get more help. This guide is accompanied by a training and development pack and films that help health, housing and social care professionals reflect on and understand their role in helping families get the housing they need.
