Supported Decision Making: A roadmap for reform in Newfoundland and Labrador

IRIS – Institute for Research and Development on Inclusion and Society was engaged by the Newfoundland and Labrador Association for Community Living, on behalf of the ‘Steering Committee on Citizenship and Legal Capacity for All’ to: identify key issues and barriers to legal capacity; recommend directions for reform; and outline a ‘roadmap’ to implement them. The review involved focus groups and key informant interviews with community stakeholders and senior government officials, as well as extensive legal research.
