Social Role Valorization

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.
