HSA DSP Essentials: Side-by-Side Respecting Rights – Foundation for Dignity in Support

Welcome,

We’re excited to have you join us for this DSP Essentials series! In this course, we’ll focus on understanding and upholding the rights of the individuals you support, emphasizing dignity, respect, and empowerment.

You’ll learn how a person-centered approach can honor these rights, even when navigating perceived risks, and gain practical skills to advocate for them. Through meaningful discussions and enhanced communication, you’ll empower individuals to express their preferences and make informed decisions.

Together, we’ll create a supportive environment where everyone’s rights are valued. Let’s get started on this important journey.

Tips for you and your partner:

This course is designed to be done along side someone you support.

Please find a quiet and comfortable place to sit next to one another where you can take notes, speak in privacy, and watch the videos.

Please print or download your Respecting Rights Activity Packet, which you will be using during the course.

Be sure you mark each lesson “Complete”. You will need to complete all of the lessons to receive your certificate of completion.
