Book Description
"A compendium of ideas generated by folks with disabilities, their families and those who support them ... This plain language and graphics text is being used in self-advocate groups, classrooms and by individuals and facilitators of various kinds ... This new edition is slightly revised ... This collection of ideas is based on conversations with people with disabilities, their friends, families, neighbours and networks about what had been successful for them as they expanded and deepened their networks. We know a circle of friends ensures more safety, that people will be healthier and happier and that they and their communities will be more resilient. It's now time to engage in the conversations about how to make sure it happens - and it turns out to be a conversation full of joy, success and great examples of leadership on all levels."--Provided by publisher.
