Supportive Decision Making and Guardianship
Supported Decision Making (SDM) is an alternative to guardianship. Not every individual with an intellectual disability needs guardianship and the subsequent loss of their civil rights. SDM is an approach in which an individual is assisted with their decision making, which will enhance their skills, develop more independence, and allow them to take charge of their life. George Zaske – parent using Supported Decision Making, an attorney, member of statewide group promoting Supporting Decision Making and disability advocate will be our presenter.
These are the slides of the presentation.
