Do you want to learn more about your rights, making your own choices, and having the support you need to make decisions about your life?

Join Yuji Kajiwara (Spectrum Society for Community Living) and Angela Clancy (Executive Director, Family Support Institute) for a conversation about Natural Authority and how people with disabilities can be supported to have choice, control, and a strong voice in their own lives.

Our advocacy team will also explore common barriers to supported decision making and share strategies for speaking up, accessing support, and promoting inclusion. Learn more about your rights, decision-making supports, and how communities can better recognize and respect people with disabilities as decision makers.

Everyone has the right to be heard, respected, and supported to make choices about their own life.
