Self-determination

RAISE is offering a virtual session to provide family, caregivers and advocacy professionals with strategies and tools that help build key self-determination skills in their youth.

The RAISE Center describes self-determination as the ability for an individual to make their own decisions and guide the path of their lives. The session will include “useful goal-setting and supported decision-making tools.”

“Family involvement and student self-determination can coexist,” RAISE writes. “By helping families see the value in self-determination we can support students to build confidence and take charge of their futures.”

ASL interpretation & Spanish interpretation will be offered.
