Are you a family member or supporter of a person with a disability considering their career options? Would you like to learn about how you can support their employment journey?
Supported Decision Making (“SDM”) happens when people make their own decisions with the help of friends, family, professionals, and others they trust. SDM can be helpful when looking for or keeping a job.
Disability Rights Connecticut and the Center for Public Representation partnered to create a video training series on SDM and competitive integrated employment for people with disabilities in Connecticut. Join us on Zoom for free viewings of the video training series followed by live Q&As!
