SELF-DETERMINATIONTHE ARC
• People with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities have the same right to self-determination as all people and must have the freedom, authority, and support to exercise control over their lives. To this end, they must:
• In their personal lives have:• opportunities to advocate for themselves with the assurance that their desires,
interests, and preferences will be respected and honored.• opportunities to acquire and use skills and knowledge which better enable them to
exercise choice.• the right to take risks.• the right to choose their own allies.• the lead in decision-making about all aspects of their lives.• the option to self-direct their own supports and services and allocate available
resources.• the choice and support necessary to hire, train, manage, and fire their own staff.
SELF-DETERMINATION
• In their community lives have:• the right to receive the necessary support and assistance to vote.• opportunities to be supported to become active, valued members and leaders
of community boards, advisory councils, and other organizations.• opportunities to take leadership roles in setting the policy direction for the self-
determination movement.• the right to representation and meaningful involvement in policy-making at the
federal, state, and local levels.Adopted: Congress of Delegates, The Arc of the United States, 2011

• What could have been done at a younger age to improve current quality of life?
• Does intensity/frequency of intervention change over time? Why?
• What’s missing in your client’s life that would improve quality of life?
• What is the biggest barrier to happiness, comfort, self-determination?
SELF-DETERMINATION(THE ARC)
• People with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities have the same right to self-determination as all people and must have the freedom, authority, and support to exercise control over their lives. To this end, they must:
• In their personal lives have:• opportunities to advocate for themselves with the assurance that their desires,
interests, and preferences will be respected and honored.• opportunities to acquire and use skills and knowledge which better enable them to
exercise choice.• the right to take risks.• the right to choose their own allies.• the lead in decision-making about all aspects of their lives.• the option to self-direct their own supports and services and allocate available
resources.• the choice and support necessary to hire, train, manage, and fire their own staff.
SELF-DETERMINATION
• In their community lives have:• the right to receive the necessary support and assistance to vote.• opportunities to be supported to become active, valued members and leaders
of community boards, advisory councils, and other organizations.• opportunities to take leadership roles in setting the policy direction for the self-
determination movement.• the right to representation and meaningful involvement in policy-making at the
federal, state, and local levels.Adopted: Congress of Delegates, The Arc of the United States, 2011
34
BEYOND SELF-DETERMINATION
• Dreams and aspirations• Creativity• Comfort• Circles of friends• Advocacy
IN SUMMARY
• Children with significant neurological impairment have• Participation restrictions• Activity limitations• Impairment of body structures and functions
• Client and family experience needs based on these factors• The intervention team can provide a client/family-centered program which
• Develops and prioritizes goals that increase participation and self-determination• Coordinates the team and client in intervention strategies• Monitors progress and adjusts program to changing needs• Provides communication between service providers• Evaluates effectiveness of interventions and streamlines redundancy
• Clients have equal rights to high quality of life, self-determination
