Parenting is a human right.

People with intellectual and developmental disabilities deserve the supports they need to raise children in safe, loving, and stable environments.

No family should be separated because of a lack of services. Supports must be accessible, non-discriminatory, culturally safe, and focused on keeping families together, especially for Indigenous parents with disabilities who face compounded barriers.
