Why take this course?
Do you offer both tenancy and support? The fact of the matter is this: tenancy providers technically can’t mandate a particular support provider, and on the flip side, a person with a disability can’t be evicted if they don’t want to use the supports preferred by the tenancy manager.
This presents some big risks for providers who are attempting to mandate one, upon offering the other (we’ve recently seen an increase in compliance to give people with a disability full tenancy rights – understandably so). Then, we add the overlap of NDIA rules and state-based tenancy laws, and we’ve got a rather complex issue on our hands.
Now for the good news. There are things that providers can (and should) do to safeguard their organisation. This practical four hour workshop will dive into this growing and complex issue (even if this is the first time you’ve heard of it!) and show providers how to feel more confident navigating the tenancy risks and rules. A collective sigh of relief.
