We all make them, yet sometimes we need reminding of what our rights are around making decisions. We came across this great video produced by Speak Out Advocacy in Tasmania - who are an organisation working in advocacy for people with a disability.
This video talks about what decisions are and what rights we have around making them. It's designed to teach young people with intellectual disability about choice and decision making.
Given we are in a time of change where disability
services all over are moving towards Person Centred Systems, IDEAS NSW are interested to
know of all the different ways you value receiving information.
They are also interested in where you seek information to make the most of
every choice available to you. They want to be able to show what is important
for people with disabilities and their families, carers and service providers,
when they are seeking information.
IDEAS has put together a survey, which hopes to gives some answers to these
questions;
They’d like to get at least 1000 replies to make the survey significant. The
answers will be analysed, so they can make some recommendations for future
service designs and how they connect with the community.
No individual or
personal information will be shared with anyone. Your details
are kept entirely confidential.
You can also enter your details to be in the draw to win a $250 Coles voucher.
There is no obligation to complete the survey, or the draw.
IDEAS would like to thank you in advance for taking the time to complete this
survey and the findings will be shared with you via their newsletter and
website when they are in.
If you have any questions or problems please give them a call on 1800 029 904
or email info@ideas.org.au
and they will be happy to speak to you about anything at all, and help you in
any way they can.
