Supported Decision Making is an approach that enables individuals, particularly those with disabilities, to make their own decisions with the assistance of others.

It emphasises the importance of providing support rather than someone else doing decision-making. This method values the individual's preferences, rights, and dignity, ensuring that they remain in control while receiving guidance from trusted friends, family, or professionals.

By promoting autonomy and collaboration, Supported Decision Making helps individuals navigate choices in various aspects of their lives, from daily routines to significant life decisions.
