Education and Rights of Individuals with Disabilities

The principle of the COE is most closely connected to self-determination. This principle emphasizes that people with developmental disabilities have the right to participate in decisions that affect their lives, and as a DSP (Direct Support Professional), it is crucial to assist them in directing the course of their own lives.
