Best Practices – WSC

Submission date: 5-05-16
Submitted by: Avril Wilson
WSC name: Patricia Pereira
APD Area: Southeast Region

Practice: WSC has created a Rights educational tool by placing each Right in picture form on both sides of a laminated business sized card, which she shared with individuals she support. It can also be added to a key chain.

Who Benefits? How? ​The Rights picture format serves as an ongoing educational tool, particular for individuals who do not use words to communicate. It serves as a reminder of Rights that are important to individuals and to others that they come in contact in their day to day activities. It also helps to initiate conversation with others.

How could others apply this in practice? ​This model is now being utilized by individuals at a major ADT in Broward where individuals have the option of adding it to their picture id tags.
