Abstract
As professionals and policymakers gain a clearer understanding of the critical role choice and control play in people's lives, homeownership is increasingly being considered a desirable community housing option for people with disabilities. Personal futures planning (PFP) supports an individual's lifestyle choices and control. In addition, it is a grassroots planning and community-building effort that emphasizes team action planning to achieve desired outcomes. Because of these values and practices, PFP is a frequently proposed approach to working through the homeownership process with people with disabilities. This article uses a PFP framework to identify the steps, activities and key questions to be explored by interested homebuyers with the support and assistance of a team of their allies.
