This Spanish-language resource explains Supported Decision-Making (SDM) and the importance of honoring an individual’s right to make personal choices and decisions. It encourages families, educators, and support teams to help individuals with disabilities participate as fully as possible in decisions about their lives while still providing guidance and support when needed.
The guide focuses on promoting self-determination, independence, and respect for personal preferences in areas such as education, healthcare, employment, relationships, and daily living. By encouraging collaborative support rather than taking away decision-making rights, the resource helps individuals build confidence, self-advocacy skills, and greater control over their future.
