Multicap, in collaboration with DEC Housing, is proud to announce a groundbreaking initiative aimed at empowering people with disabilities to co-design their ideal living spaces.
This initiative marks a significant step towards ensuring that people with disabilities have a meaningful voice in the creation of homes that cater to their unique needs and preferences.
Multicap’s General Manager Victoria Peta Fensham-Cobb brings a wealth of expertise in disability services, offering people the opportunity to co-create their Supportive Independent Living (SIL) support teams.
“Our team would work to match the person to the location they want to live in to best meet their needs then customise the home following extensive consultation, ensuring that the design supports aging in place with the assurance of lifetime tenancy,” she said.
“This collaborative approach includes engagement in the recruitment and matching of support staff, ensuring that people receive personalised support that meets their specific needs thus enhancing the quality of life for people with disabilities.
“This approach would ensure people will not only receive expert clinical advice and tailored support but also become part of a vibrant community where they can engage in meaningful activities and social programs.”
DEC Housing specialises in the development of modern Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) that prioritises choice and independence.
“At DEC Housing, we believe that everyone deserves a home that reflects their aspirations and supports their journey towards greater independence,” said.
“We are committed to empowering people with disabilities to actively participate in shaping their living environments.”
Located strategically in Melbourne, homes can be selected based on individual preferences and proximity to essential amenities such as shops, transport links, parks, and health and disability services.
Anyone interested in exploring this opportunity are encouraged to reach out to DEC Housing and Multicap to learn more about how they can be involved in designing their future homes and support services.
