These pages are divided into two sections ...
Disability Services, disability
and community :
The
Disability Services sector
is grounded in the theory of
Social
Role
Valorisation (SRV) (that people with
disability are institutionalised and our goal is to
de-institutionalise them).
These pages show that ...
The
more severe the disability, the more dependent the person is on
support mechanisms to fulfill the persons needs.
Organisations that support people with disability often take an active
role in intervention (in looking after people with high support needs),
while the community takes on a more supportive role.
By understanding the roles of the community, institutions,
organisations and service providers, the buildings and finally Social
Role Valorisation (SRV), strategies and solutions can be found so the
person has the opportunity to participate in activities and share
experiences, develop permanent connections and relationships, and have
valued roles within each community that he/she participates in.
