Join Lehigh Valley Center for Independent Living’s Supported Decision-Making project to learn about Supported Decision-Making (SDM), an empowering and less restrictive alternative to guardianship for individuals with disabilities. The session is designed for people with a disability, family members, educators, and professionals. Discover how Supported Decision-Making allows people to make their own choices with support from a trusted network, promoting independence and dignity. In this informative session, you’ll learn:

• What Supported Decision-Making is and how it differs from guardianship
• The benefits of Supported Decision-Making for individuals, families, and communities
• How to implement Supported Decision-Making in your own case using resources and toolkits from SDMPA.org
