Cohousing Solutions For Neurodiverse Adults


Listen Later

In this special episode of Anderson Business Advisors, Toby Mathis speaks with Jim Richardson and Diane Lawson of Front Porch Co-Housing about a growing issue in our country - the lack of independent, affordable housing opportunities for neurodivergent adults.

This is an opportunity for our listeners to help solve. There are 5.4 million autistic adults in the U.S. today, and 87% of these individuals live with their parents. It is crucial that there be a plan for those adult children when their parents are gone.  Investing in real estate used for this purpose is an amazing opportunity to be “more than a landlord” and the non-profit status of the Front Porch Co-Housing organization can also offer the investor certain advantages.

Highlights/Topics:
  • Diane’s experience with a neurodivergent son being denied housing
  • Jim’s background - also has a son with autism who was denied housing
  • The scope - millions of adults with neurodivergent issues
  • A unique approach - co-housing neurotypical and neurodivergent adults - “neuro-inclusive living”
  • Millennials (22-40), are experiencing unprecedented levels of loneliness and isolation
  • The expansion plan for Front Porch Housing
  • Costs for neuro-inclusive living - planning for an entire lifetime
  • No state funding assistance – not classified as a ‘group home’
  • Real estate investors can help their communities and be more than “just a landlord”
  • Sponsoring a neurodivergent person in your community - visit the Front Porch link below
  • Donations can also be land, real estate, vehicles to sell, and other assets - email Jim with the link below
