Disabled people have less option in their accommodation choice, such as their parents’ house, group home or admission facilities. Most of them live with their parents, guardians or care workers. This research focuses on houses shared with disabled people and people without disabilities. The purpose of this action research is to grasp the practice process and the living conditions after moving of the share houses and explain their problems and potentials. This research shows that the shared houses are the meaningful accommodation for disabled people from a social point of view as well as welfare. However the shared houses are not famous in Japan because its welfare system has not improved enough to support the shared houses which would need much subsidies. Therefore the government should promote the shared houses and it is necessary to assist them.
