Self-DeterminationSlide13
Learning self-determination skills are the most important factor in quality of life outcomes for all people. Teaching self-determination to people who have developmental disabilities can be difficult, but the impact is immeasurable.Slide14
Self-Determination is the ability to determine one’s own fate based upon freely determined set of criteria.This does not mean people are free to do whatever they choose without ramifications for poor decisions.Slide15
“I don’t have to be told what self-determination means, I know it is just another word for a life filled with rising expectations, dignity, respect, and opportunities”
Robert WilliamsSlide16
