What is the Best Way to Rent a House to Family With Disabled Needs?

I have a neat rental property that i just bought but need some advice on best way to rent it.

It is a single family 3 bedroom, 2 story house that the former tenant shared with her disabled husband. Although it has all bedrooms upstairs, it does have an electric chairlift on stairwell wall and has wheel chair ramps throughout the back yard.

Are there any organizations, or groups that I should be contacting to see if they need housing for their members' needs or is there a better way to promote this property to find the best tenant for it??

Most of the larger organization I have called have their own apartments/dorms and are not interested.

Section 8 in Austin does not pay any type of premium for these amenities so I'd rather not start there.

I would love to rent to an organization or family that can utilize the benefits this house offers-- as it is very niche designed.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
