The Housing Continuum Series: Introduction, Homelessness & Emergency Shelters

January 26, 2026 @ 6:30 pm 7:15 pm

The Housing Continuum Series is a 7-part virtual learning series offered in 2026. The housing continuum is the range of housing types typically available in a community. It represents an assortment of housing options and types, each critically important for different people at different times.

The first session will focus on homelessness and emergency shelters. Participants attending these sessions will strengthen their knowledge of the housing options in their community and understand how each part of the housing continuum works. They will also increase their understanding of how different types of housing can be welcoming, accessible, and inclusive for Autistic and neurodivergent people.

This series will walk participants through each part of the housing continuum and provide real examples within Calgary. The sessions are designed to help people build their understanding of how housing works, what options exist, and how different housing environments can support Autistic and neurodivergent adults to live well in their communities.
