Independence looks different for everyone.
It is not about doing everything alone, and it is not about taking over either.
Good support means working with participants at whatever level they can do things for themselves, while being there to support them where they need help.
That can look different for each person, and that is exactly the point.
At GDS, we believe support should be purposeful, respectful, and built around the person. 🫶
