必不可少却又遥不可及：残疾儿童的居家无障碍设施

居家生活是一项权利，而非奢侈品。残疾儿童和有复杂医疗需求的儿童通常需要专门的设备、用品和房屋改造，才能安全舒适地居家生活。然而，许多家庭在寻找和使用相关服务、支付房屋改造费用以及获得所需支持方面都面临诸多挑战。.

This webinar, the first in a two-part series, introduced Foundation-funded research on the national landscape of programs and policies that support home accessibility for children with disabilities and their families across the country. The session provided an overview of home modifications, including what they are, why they matter, and how they can help improve safety, independence, and family well-being. A panel of experts, including those with lived experience, discussed common barriers to accessing home modifications, the real-world impacts of these supports on children and caregivers, and opportunities for action and advocacy.
