Supported decision-making is a person-centered approach that provides individuals with disabilities or cognitive impairments the necessary assistance, tools, and information to make their own choices and decisions while respecting their autonomy and preferences. It aims to enhance their ability to participate in various aspects of life and maintain control over their own affairs without resorting to guardianship or total decision-making authority by others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACTEC Fellows Professor David M. English<\/a> and Tara Anne Pleat<\/a> explain how supported decision-making works, including an overview of a pilot program in New York.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
