Colorado Intentional Communities Research Project

Your Feedback Needed

We want to hear from you!

 

In previous research, people with intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD) expressed the desire to live in a neuro-inclusive planned or intentional community. We are seeking self-advocate and family member participants across the state to help us understand:

 

  • Why adults with I/DD and their families desire intentional communities as a housing option

  • What fears do people have about intentional communities

  • What policy or regulations can be used to protect intentional communities from becoming institutional in nature​

You can participate by either:

  • Participate virtually by watching the expanded or plain-language presentation below and taking the survey or;

  • Joining an in-person Plain-Language Focus Group by registering for one of the dates listed below.
