In today’s society there are young adults with disabilities who need assistance with day to day activities. Most of these young adults either live at home with their parents who help them, in nursing homes, or even in an institution. Currently there aren’t many good options for young adults with disabilities to live and get their needs met. My thesis is designing a place for these young adults to live, thrive, and have a chance to live somewhat independently. I want this project to break stigmas that go along with disabilities including: Social Avoidance (people with disabilities may be left out of social activities or people may be hesitant to talk to someone with a disability), Stereotypes (people with disabilities may be presumed to be helpless, unable to care for themselves, or unable to make their own decisions), and Internalization (people with disabilities may themselves adopt negative beliefs about their own disability and feel ashamed or embarrassed about it). Lastly, this project will create a sense of community within the area as well as in the building itself. The challenges that are with this project are: how do you design around the needs of different disabilities, what are the necessary needs for people with disabilities, and how do I create a community for people with disabilities? Using research to figure out these challenges, this project will propose the best solution for young adults with disabilities to live somewhat independently and to thrive within their community.
