Across the world, most valued people have some level of choice and voice in their lives, perhaps not about everything but about many things. We make many daily decisions, express our opinions freely, and often have leeway to steer our lives in one direction or another, to take some risks, and to stretch ourselves.
Join us for three days of learning, discovery, and design as we explore visual and inclusive processes of envisioning the future, design ways to move forward, and create change. This course is intended to develop awareness in using PATH and Person Futures Planning.
This workshop gives participants a practical introduction to the principles of Social Role Valorization. Through a combination of multimedia presentation and small group discussion, participants will learn about the phenomenon of social devaluation. This event includes discussion of how people with disabilities and other devalued groups have been systematically hurt and harmed by society, and what the impact of that devaluation has been. Participants will also learn about ways to help people have better lives by supporting them to achieve positive valued social roles. We will discuss practical strategies to make this a reality for the people you support.
Work gives people a sense of purpose and self-worth. For many, it defines our identify and is a source of pride. Employment not only provides income and economic independence but also opportunities for rich social interactions and a sense of belonging. All individuals, regardless of disability, deserve the opportunity to be full members of the community where they can live, learn, work, and grow.
