Remember…
…All people
with developmental disabilities have significant abilities
as well as disabilities and they should be treated as able
people.
…Adults
should always be treated as adults, regardless of disability.
…It is
important to access a person’s functional skills and try to
improve the skills that they need in order to live a more
independent life.
…Everyone –
regardless of race, ability, gender, religion, sexual
preference – has a right to live a life free of abuse. |
