In our Make Decisions Real project, we looked at supported decision-making resources that already existed.
We then asked people with an intellectual disability what they thought about them.
We asked:
- Is the resource easy to understand?
- Is it for people with an intellectual disability?
- Does it explain Supported decision making well?
Then we made this Resource Directory which you can download here.
The Resource Directory talks about lots of supported decision-making resources from across Australia and where you can find them.
“We made the directory so people can find good Supported Decision Making resources easier.” – Lorraine, Peer Worker
We wrote the directory in accessible language.
The Resource Directory includes descriptions and links to 8 resources for:
- Decision makers
- Decision supporters.
It includes artwork from our competition for people with an intellectual disability. The theme was ‘I make my own decisions’. There were 3 winners, chosen by the Peer Workers. You can see their work in our online art gallery.
“We chose them based on the ones we liked the most and the ones that best showed the theme.” – Brooke, Peer Worker
