SRV leaders from across India will gather together in person to strengthen ourselves and each other, to envision ways to bring the powerful ideas we share forward, and to build our change movement. We will rely on our gathered group with our experience, passion, and sense of community to set direction for the upcoming few years. For practical reasons, we are unable to bring all AISRV members together but are inviting some leaders to be a part of this gathering, and together will find ways to include everyone.

Welcome to the Person-Centered Planning User’s Group!
Person Centered Planning is gathering steam as a way to think about inclusive futures across India. Over 200 facilitators from across the country have been trained in powerful tools like PATH, Personal Futures Planning, and One-Page Profiles. Many highly regarded organizations from across the country have practiced the art of person-centered planning within their organizations, seeing powerful change in the lives of the people they serve. Families have harnessed the power to create new futures for their sons and daughters, and organizations have envisioned their own positive and possible futures. Let’s compare notes!

Across India, change leaders committed to better lives for people with developmental and psychosocial disability are talking and learning about Social Role Valorization, a powerful set of ideas about how to assist people to have full, rich, meaningful lives. SRV provides a high-order framework for understanding the society in which we live, and the place people with disabilities tend to hold within in. As well, SRV thinking is accompanied by very practical implementation strategies to help people with disabilities have access to the good things of life.
