Neuroinclusivity in Housing today
The projects, partnerships, and experiences shared throughout this history continue to shape Neuroinclusivity in Housing.
Sinneave works with Autistic and neurodivergent people, families, housing providers, and community partners to improve housing and independent living opportunities. Sinneave puts ideas into practice in Calgary and shares knowledge and resources with communities across Canada.
Autistic and neurodivergent perspectives continue to guide this work.
Putting ideas into practice in Calgary
In Calgary, Sinneave works with housing providers, community organizations, Autistic people, families, and others to explore practical ways to make housing more neuroinclusive.
Together, we are exploring ways to:
- Help Autistic adults prepare for, find, and maintain housing that meets their needs
- Support housing providers to better understand and respond to the needs of Autistic tenants
- Improve housing information, services, and processes
- Share knowledge and build connections between people and organizations
Learning locally and sharing nationally
What we learn in Calgary can help inform housing practices in other communities.
Through Neuroinclusivity in Housing, we share experiences, resources, and practical examples that others can learn from and build on.
Every community is different. Housing options, policies, resources, and priorities vary across Canada. Approaches that work in Calgary may need adaptations to work in another community.

Neuroinclusivity in Housing also supports broader efforts to improve housing opportunities for Autistic people across Canada.
This includes goals identified in Canada’s Autism Strategy, which recognizes housing as an important part of economic inclusion and quality of life.
