Supported Decision Making: Will it work for my family member?
While Supported Decision-making (SDM) has become increasingly recognized as an option for decision-making support, it is not always easy to determine if it is the right choice for a given person. Understanding the differences between SDM and other options can be important for making this assessment. This session will explore practical strategies for working directly with people who have disabilities to assess the type of supports best suited to their needs and develop the skills and experience needed for decision-making over time. The presenter will also explore some practical and legal issues to consider in determining which support option to try.
