Film Description



My Choice, Your Decision uses the acclaimed talents of Interact Theatre Company to illustrate the often hilarious differences between new fads in providing services to people with disabilities and what people really want for themselves.  Comprising actors with and without developmental disabilities, Interact Theatre is brilliant at using humor to uncover our most basic prejudices and common mistakes.  Exercises bring participants through the ABC's of understanding choices and making decisions.  A must for individuals and groups working on the basics of self-advocacy, and an effective tool for showing staff and professionals how to share power.

Contents:  30-minute video followed by interviews with cast and director; facilitator's manual with discussion guide, participatory exercises, and tips for trainers.
