FAQs
How can I support my client/family member with supported decision making?
You must help someone with a disability make their own choice and not make it for them. Support them by listening to what they want, explaining the options clearly using simple language or visual aids and give them time to decide.
Do you offer transport to MyPath?
No, however if you require transport, we can help organise some options for you.
