So…… Mark your calendars for the virtual premiere of Why Work in Self-Direction? a staff recruitment and training video produced by SDAN volunteers. This new video\, which illustrates the core principles of Self-Direction\, is a valuable tool for participants and family advocates.  The 23-minute film will premiere at a special SDAN ZOOM meeting on Thursday October 7 at 3pm. We are thrilled that both Arc Maryland and Applied Self Direction have joined with us to co-host this exciting event. \nAfter the video\, SDAN members will share staff recruitment and training suggestions so that we can assemble a “Tips and Best Practices” document to share with everyone who self-directs. The meeting will feature breakout sessions so that everyone has an opportunity to share their thoughts. To view the 2-minute trailer click here.
