Self-directed support systems need to pay more attention to enhancing people's ability to work and contribute as citizens.
Self-directed support is about helping people achieve citizenship. Work is a good way to enhance your citizenship. But too often people don't think about work when they think about self-directed support.
This presentation explores the need to build an expectation of work into our development of self-directed support. It was made at an event organised by In Control Scotland and VIA in Scotland.
