As part of our Make Decisions Real project, we came up with the 5 Steps of Supported Decision Making.
We made a series of videos to help you understand the 5 steps.
The videos show people with an intellectual disability talking about how they make decisions in their own lives. Each video covers a different step of the supported decision making process. All of the videos have closed captions.
It’s a good idea to watch the videos in order. You can watch these videos with your decision supporter if you want.
There is a video activity booklet to go with the videos. You can download the video activity booklet here.
At the end of each video there are questions for you to think about. Write or draw your answers in the video activity booklet.
