The Housing Knowledge Community of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) is proud to be a sponsor of the AIA Housing Awards program and the AIA/HUD Secretary Housing and Community Design Awards. The Housing Awards program, now in its 13th year, was established to recognize the best in housing design and promote the importance of good housing as a necessity of life, a sanctuary for the human spirit and a valuable national resource. The AIA/HUD Secretary’s Awards recognizes excellence in affordable housing architecture, neighborhood design, participatory design, and accessibility. The jury of architects, educators and writers recognized 6 projects for AIA Housing Awards and 3 projects for the AIA/HUD Secretary Awards from a very competitive pool of entries. This publication celebrates exemplary housing and community engaged design
Recently, attention has begun to focus on developing supportive residential environments that address the specific needs of post-school-age autistic adults: over the past year a series of national town hall meetings conducted by a consortium of autism groups, housing agencies, developers, service providers and parents of adults with autism have identified housing as a primary concern. This webinar provides instruction in evidence-based design for residential environments for adults with autism and other cognitive disabilities. This May 6, 2013 presentation is a part of the ongoing Housing Knowledge Community research webinar series. #autism #HousingKnowledgeCommunity #housing #Presentations #aia #design #Research #Webinars #HKC #research #AcademyofArchitectureforHealth
