SUMMARY:Manhattan Transition Committee Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Manhattan Transition Committee Meeting:\n\n\n\nSupported Decision-Making as an Alternative to Guardianship\n\n\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting: https://zoom.us/j/94585070116 \n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 945 8507 0116 \n\n\n\nOne tap mobile: +16469313860\,\,94585070116# \n\n\n\nPrintable Flyer \n\n\n\nFamily members often believe that obtaining guardianship is the appropriate step for a loved one with an intellectual or developmental disability (I/DD) in order to protect the individual and remain involved in that person’s life. In reality\, guardianship takes away the person’s rights to make all the decisions in their lives. Supported decision-making (SDM) is a well-recognized alternative\, enabling persons with I/DD to make their own decisions with the support of trusted persons in their lives. Now that the New York State Legislature has  passed a bill recognizing SDM\, people with I/DD who go through an SDMNY facilitation process and develop Supported Decision-Making Agreements will be protected from discrimination based on their disability. \n\n\n\nSupported Decision-Making New York (SDMNY) began asa 6-year project funded by DDPC\, to pilot the use of SDM to divert persons at risk of guardianship\, and to restore rights to persons  already subject to guardianship. Now under a grant with OPWDD\, SDMNY has designed a model for delivering SDM facilitation services state-wide. \n\n\n\nThis presentation with SDMNY Associate Director Joan Cornachio\, and Jenna Lamm\, SDMNY Transition Specialist\, will explain how the SDMNY facilitation process works with people with I/DD\, to develop Supported Decision-Making Agreements (SDMAs) that may be used as a more empowering alternative to guardianship. They will also discuss the new SDMA law and its positive impact on building more inclusive\, self-determined lives. \n\n\n\nA Q&A session will follow the presentation. \n\n\n\n       For a preview of the work of SDMNY\, please check out these short videos: \n\n\n\n\nSDMNY Videos\n\n\n\n\n\nJessica Statement\n\n\n\n\nIf you have any questions please feel free to contact us: \n\n\n\nDavid Summers\, AHRC NYC\, david.summers@ahrcnyc.orgAndrew Harris\, P138M\, aharris27@schools.nyc.gov
