OLTL to Present Spring Housing Webinar Series
The Office of Long-Term Living (OLTL) has announced that they will be presenting a six-session webinar series that will focus on housing issues. The live, interactive webinars will be conducted from 12:00 pm – 1:30 pm in April and May and will focus on the following topics:
2024 OLTL Spring Housing Series Curriculum
- April 2: Understanding Housing Nuances in Pennsylvania
- April 9: Recommended Relationships to Have in the Housing Sector

- May 7: Keeping Participants Housed with Landlord Engagement Techniques AND Housing Information Resources to be Aware of
- May 14: Assistive Technology and Housing with the PA Assistive Technology Foundation (PATF)
Target Audience
The webinar series targets Service Coordinators, Managed Care Organizations (MCO), and Service Coordination Entity support staff who assist program participants in securing and maintaining affordable, accessible housing through Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS). The target audience for these webinars includes individuals and organizations who provide long-term services and supports (LTSS) for older Pennsylvanians and people with physical disabilities.
Important Information
The information covered in this webinar series will be similar to the information covered in the 2023 OLTL spring and fall housing webinars (except for an added session on assistive technology). Since the information is similar, if you attended the 2023 housing webinars, you do not need to attend this series unless you wish to refresh your knowledge on the topic, participate in a session that you missed, or participate in the new assistive technology session.
This webinar series builds on information already provided in the Online Housing Training Modules and the Self-Determination Housing of Pennsylvania (SDHP)/Inglis’ Prepared Renter Program (PREP) curriculum.
The content in each webinar builds on prior content. Participants will get the most out of the series by taking all of the webinars.
To participate in the webinars, registration is available here.
