1:00 pm: Reasonable Accommodations in Housing Workshop (Virtual)
– August 12, 2025
Hosted by DRC
Join us for a live webinar
Are you a person with disabilities that needs to make changes to your housing rules or to your home’s physical structures to make it more accessible? Please join us at this workshop to learn about your rights to do so.
About the webinar:
Tenants with disabilities have strong housing rights and there are specific rules that housing providers must follow to accommodate them. Join us to learn about your right to ask for a “reasonable accommodation” or “reasonable modification” – adjustments to rules, policies, services, and even the physical layout of your home to make it more accessible for you. We will review best practices, discuss potential costs, and go over what to expect once you have made your requests.
If you still have questions after the workshop, you'll get a chance to chat with an Equal Access and Housing Practice Group team member in a private 15-minute consultation. If you need more in-depth support, we can set up a separate appointment for you.

A social recreation class for special needs adults; concentrating on life skills, community involvement, and building relationships in a fun, engaging and inclusive environment. We will be teaching cooking skills, hygiene skills, household skills and other life (and some fun sprinkled in) to help our participants lead fulfilling lives.
Join us virtually on Wednesdays from 6-6:45pm for Zoom Yoga
Our special yogis have been practicing together for nearly FIVE years! Each class focuses on gentle movement, mindfulness, balance, and stress release. Calming benefits will follow you well beyond your yoga mat.
When participating at home it's important to have a safe and uncluttered space to practice in. A mat is nice but not required. This will be a gentle slower paced class, combining motion and stretching. We encourage families to join the class together and practice on their own too.
