21Next Communities provides clients with assistance acquiring housing as a service for adults with disabilities.

Securing and maintaining housing, or residential services for individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD) are pervasive, most often exacerbated by housing shortages, inadequate funding streams, pernicious housing-related discrimination, and lack of political will. These are just some of the variables that limit or prevent many adults with I/DD from gaining access to affordable housing.
