QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF

​

  • WHAT CHALLENGES MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR SOMEONE TO NAVIGATE IN MY HOME?

​

  • CAN MY CURRENT HOME BE MODIFIED TO MEET A PERSON'S ACCESSIBILITY NEEDS?

​

  • ARE THERE ANY RESOURCES THAT I CAN UTILIZE FOR A PROJECT (GRANTS, INSURANCE, ETC.)?

​

  • HOW MUCH MONEY CAN I SAVE IN THE LONG RUN BY MAKING MODIFICATIONS TO MY HOME?

​

QUICK FACTS

FROM BETHEL UNIVERSITY:

​

  • Almost 19% of people living in the US reported having a Disability Estimated at 1 in 5 US residents or 49.7 million (Disability Status Report Cornell University 2012)

​

  • People with disabilities represent the largest minority group in the world estimated at approximately 15% (World Health Organization Report 2011)

​

  • Not all disabilities are apparent - Even though they are hidden they are still real. Respect the person's needs and requests whenever possible.

​

  • People with disabilities possess a full range of personality traits.

​

  • Disability is not a measure of character or intelligence.

​

  • Most people with disabilities want to promote understanding - so ask relevant and appropriate questions!

​

  • People with disabilities are different not less.
