Housing 

PHPF is constantly seeking ways to bring much needed information and resources to the special needs community.  At the end of 2006 we announced a new initiative to provide housing opportunities for special needs families and adults. This housing program was to include rental properties and/or homeownership on a case-by-case basis.  

In an effort to avoid recreating the wheel, we began to research organizations with successful housing programs.  In doing so we decided to bring you information about national programs already in existence.  We will continue our efforts to create a local housing and development program.

The mission of the Florida Alliance for Assistive Services and Technology (FAAST) is to improve the quality of life for all Floridians with disabilities.  They do this through advocacy and awareness activities that increase access to, and acquisition of assistive services and technology.  FAAST believes that a home that fits your needs is the ultimate piece of assistive technology, and they can help you locate affordable housing in your area.
