April 21st, 2011 - Update on National " Natural Supports " Survey

I have had 451 responses, with 278 folks kind enough to leave a written

response for question 8, some long, some short, all interesting and valuable.

Many, many perspectives have been presented, and you will find reading

those responses to be engrossing, thought-provoking and worthwhile..

I welcome more responses

When all is done, I will be able to do some crosstabing and looking at

individual surveys to see what is happening.

We will close the survey May 7, 2011.

In response to several requests, I will post the raw data, including all

the written comments filtered/sorted by the age of the individual, along with

graphs, etc, as soon as possible,.at:

Check there for the results after May 7th.

In the meantime, I still ask your help in getting the survey to more

people by again placing the following message in any and all listservs, in

which you participate, and sending in email to friends and placing it in

bulletins and the like:

===============================================

Nationwide Survey on " Natural Supports " for Individuals with Disabilities

and Families

Many of us have been told that we should use our " natural supports " to

provide services to ourselves and our kids - even in place of paid services.

Do you have natural supports? Tell us if you do or not, and a bit about them.

This is an 8 question survey, anonymous and should take about 5 minutes or

less.

This is for parents/guardians, caregivers and individuals with

disabilities ONLY.

Results, when completed, will be posted on the PAD-CO website. We will

leave the poll open until May 7, 2011.

Please copy and paste this post into your listservs and emails. Lets get

as many responses as possible. Thank you

This poll was developed by Denver Fox, Ed.D. a parent of two adult

children with disabilities - dnvrfox@...
