Reaching the age of 18 is an exciting time for youth and their families. It is also a time when many questions arise around legal responsibilities for young adults with disabilities and needs for continuing support with decision-making. Families need information to think through questions about options for continuing support for a young adult in making critical life decisions around issues such as education, school-to-adult transition, health care, and finances. This presentation will discuss the options available for support from the least to most restrictive options - including a discussion of Supported Decision-Making, which was recently formally recognized in DC law.
Due to the PHE, sessions are held virtually.
