Universal Design and Visitability

The design of a house directly impacts the ability of residents to live at home comfortably and safely. A good design can make it possible for residents to stay at home as they age or cope with a short- or long-term disability.

Sarasota County supports designing homes to better support these varied populations and aims, and has unveiled a voluntary recognition program for residential units that apply principles of Universal Design and Visitability.
