Where will the youth live after high school?
Home is about exploring housing options and then eventually selecting and getting settled into a residence. Living independently can take place in a variety of settings, whether a person owns or rents their own house or apartment, lives with others (with or without supports), or remains in the family home.
To teach youth about housing options and to explore ways to pay for housing, review Housing: Starting the journey from the PACER Center.
My Vault housing paths help youth set a housing budget and build a housing plan.
Assign the appropriate activity to help youth explore and set goals for their community life. After each activity, discuss how they can use the results to build a plan to reach their goals and advocate for what they want.
