Jerry spoke to Sinead McGrath of Before We Die about the challenges faced by families who try to get housing and supports for adults with intellectual disabilities. It’s particularly difficult for elderly parents who find it hard to get such supports for their adult children with additional needs. Sinead has two sons in their twenties with additional needs. They both want to live independently but to do so requires supports that are very hard to access.
