    Supported Decision-Making Practices to Establish Alternatives to Guardianship

    • Overview

    Thank you

    This live web event has ended. Thank you for attending.

    Description

    Guardianship has traditionally been the default option for people who need help making decisions. We now understand that some people can get the help they need without the assistance of a legal guardian. Supported decision-making and other alternatives to guardianship can offer a way for people to make their own decisions even if they need extra help with the process. In this session we will describe supported decision-making and other alternatives to guardianship. Additionally, we will provide some examples of how real people are using supported decision-making and offer some resources that can help anyone get started.

    Primary Learning Objectives:

    1. Participants will understand the paradigm of supported decision-making.
    2. Participants will learn how people use supported decision-making in their lives.
    3. Participants will discover resources that can assist in the implementation of supported decision-making.

    This session is presented on March 4, 2022 by Laura Butler.
