Many people with mental illness and with disabilities want to live and fully participate in their communities, and they have a civil right to do so under the Americans with Disabilities Act. A clear goal of community integration is one hallmark of effective approaches for people with mental illness and disabilities to transition to the community from an institution. In this Housing and Services Resource Center (administered by USAging) webinar, a top national expert, a center for independent living and a large health system will reveal effective strategies for supporting individuals as they find homes in the community, arrange for services individuals need and choose, and integrate into community life.
