Welcome
Risk. Opportunity. Autonomy. Dignity.
Click below to learn about the My ROAD project and explore our resources to support dignity of risk in healthcare, college, and supported employment settings.
My ROAD explores how to advance dignity of risk for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities across the lifespan. Dignity of risk means everyone has the right to make their own choices, even when those choices involve taking risks. It recognizes that trying new things, making mistakes, and learning along the way are essential parts of being human.

“Dignity of risk is a part of the pathway to a full life experience. Without the power of making mistakes, individuals do not build the fortitude necessary to not only find success but also just find their start in life.”
