They also violate all the disability act laws. Keeping it in silence hiding the truth. From Washington DC DC refuses to stand up and fight for the disabled rights to put a stop to the bullying and the hate crimes against disability. Why they don't care about us all they care about is the greed and the dollars that get stuck in their pockets that have stoled from disabled people. And not willing to return what they stated they borrowed. They said the money was Derek and they earned it. Non acceptable misconduct of impeachment behavior
Oregon is the worst bullying about disabled people's rights. They don't seem to care about our rights. In Oregon. they want us to stay in silence. This is a disappointment that disabled people have to live with people who have a discrimination hate crime against disability. Or they're running over the top of them and telling I'm in Oregon. They also sexually assault disadelete and get away widget because the Cobbs and Oregon don't seem to care about the disability act. Non acceptable behavior a police officer's. And otherwise or going by here say to violate a disability person. Jazz for being themselves. Their feelings have no meaning by any government official. They dumb they don't accommodate their disability
Disable people are always being bullied by the higher IQ. Individuals of the state government were bullied and yelled at by the state government as well as outside people thinking. We have no civil rights to belong in society. This is non acceptable misconduct of behavior by outsiders and all government officials
I love this organisation so much, they have been helping me and my colleague at the University of Bristol with our research project on the role of support workers and carers in doctors appointments for people with learning disabilities. I have met the most beautiful empowered people. Thank you for all your wonderful work.
I don’t know why we bully the ones that are slightly different instead of the human babies who have to be wheeled around and fed and monitored by 2 personnel
I have autism, depression, and bipolar two disorder, and I really hate it when people tell me that I am faking my disabilities just receive money from the government. First of all, I am not faking my disabilities at all, I work at a job that I really love in order to make more money for myself and to not rely on the government and my parents so much, and I hate relying on Social Security. Also, whenever I try to stand up for myself and when people say mean and ignorant comments to me and about me, I am sometimes told to just shut up and if I do not shut up, I will get in trouble just for speaking up and standing up for myself.
Hello everyone! I’m 12 years old and my mum is a support worker for a blind man. I love helping her with him, he’s such a sweet man. I tell him where he is and I lead him to places, My mum says when I am allowed to get a job she will make me a support worker, I’m not to sure how she would do that but she says she can. I’m so exited and this video made me even more exited. Have a good day anyone who is reading this <333
thankyou for sharing your experience! its so inspiring that you help your mum and enjoy it! You sound like a very special young man:). I hope you will become a Support Worker when you are older! im sure you will be great!
as an autistic person, its important I say that the majority of the autistic community despise the "person first" language and as such we are not persons with autism we are autistic people
Very sorry to everyone that was a victim of disability hate crime one day I will stop disability hate crimes and I just want to say having a disability makes you who you are and no one can change that
13:42 just like my ex-friend did that to me. He was like my younger brother. Always borrow my money and promise to return my money. Even he help me to get lawyer to get my refund from garena, but he lied to me and all my money he lied just to pay his marriages. I cannot forgive him and he treated me very bad way like i been an idiot. Knowing him seen 19 years. Better be careful who you trust with your families, friends or bf/gf.
I feel bad for him! I was bullied at school for having a mild learning disability and I was bullied by severely disabled kids because I had something like talk and being cable of doing things that other people can do and was rubbing it in their face! I know that feeling!
This video is great showing technology helping people communicate. Makes my interest in technology worth it. Hope you become a bigger charity than Mencap as you do very good work.
I love my job as a support worker. The best part of my job is coming in and changing these peoples lives for the better. And all the laughs along the way.
What course should I do to look good on my CV?? as I currently haven’t got anything. Not sure weather to go to uni or college? I’m guessing if you get a degree in uni it’ll open up more doors as don’t think you need uni to become a support worker
@@dannyh_fitness you don’t need anything to become a support worker but a good personality. Just say you’re a caring person and feel we all deserve to be treated the same way

I believe in the idea of a Support Worker but I'm not completely convinced that the role is what it sets out to be...and, what I mean by that is that you can support someone gaining independence and living more freely but cases where someone actually gets to a stage where they can live almost entirely independently is extremely rare from my experience and I also find myself asking the question "what if the person with the disability doesn't want to participate in the community?"...should they not have the choice to remain in their own environment?...what if in fact the person prefers to live in isolation from the rest of society?...I'm just not convinced that a Support Worker is a role that I would choose to help enhance someones life...
You raise a really interesting point. We recognise that, as people, we are all different and what we want from our lives will be hugely varied. The same can be true to how we define independence. For some people, independence may not mean never needing support but rather having the support to be able to do a daily task, such as making a cup of tea when you want one. Having the ability to do these things can be the difference between feeling in control of your life or not. We also know we all have the right to make choice about how we live our lives. As you point out, for some this may mean that they do not want to engage with their community, a choice that everyone should have. The wonderful thing about the work of a support team is that they enable people to make that choice and to be confident that they have made that choice because it is what they want, rather than because they simply cannot access the community. They offer a safe space to find out all the opportunities in life that are open to them and to support them to live the life they choose, whether that’s living alone from the community, making a cup of tea, going to the gym or getting a job for the first time.
I'm a Psychologist. I'm also a Support Worker. I work supporting young people with severe learning disabilities, autism and other physical disabilities. Most of these young people can't even **speak** for themselves. My role as a Support Worker isn't to force them to go out to the community if they don't like it, but ensure that they have the opportunity to do so, because the world was simply not built with them in mind. The fact of the matter is that severe disabilities already ensure a life of isolation even if these people would want to be included. They don't often get the chance to *not* be isolated. Support Workers are there so that they get the chance to experience life in the community and decide whether they like it or not. In my experience, most people enjoy feeling recognized and celebrated as humans. I can tell you that the most anticipated moment in my school is when we're preparing one of our minibuses to take our students out for something as mundane to you and me as a trip to the shops to buy a few groceries. Some don't like it, and they don't go. Our job as support workers isn't to force upon them the life we think they should lead, but explore what could make their lives more enjoyable to live, and give them resources that will help them access these things they'd enjoy. We're there to ensure that even if they can't have all the opportunities that an ordinary person might enjoy, that we help them through their life to destroy as many barriers along with them. One of our students, again, who could not speak, had very limited understanding of spoken language and was unable to do many daily things on their own, showed some clear interest in one of the pianos in our school. Bringing in teachers for them, slowly building up the basics, he now goes for lessons two times a week in a music school out in the community. Without support, this person would've never had a chance to even be near a piano, or given the resources to explore their desires. This is one of many examples. Not everything we do in supporting our students are their favorite things, but this is the truth in the life of any child. We teach them how to eat properly, to wash, we take them to school... most children don't love these things, but they're necessary in developing in everything else. ... you say you're not convinced a Support Worker is what you'd choose to help enhance someone's life. What would you choose?
@@Kokorisu Well speaking from personal experience (I used to be a support worker, or rather had the title I should say) I witnessed ALOT of "forced" inclusion in the community which was one of the reasons I chose to leave that role...I saw alot of support workers base their days around their own needs while trying to "fit" the child's needs and I can give you an example...when I was a support worker I recall overhearing a conversation where another worker suggested bringing a child to the cinema, I thought to myself "great idea" and it was only later I also overheard that the only reason the support worker wanted to bring the child to the cinema is because there was a new animated movie in and the support worker wanted to see it!...now, that is just one of many examples I've come across but for me personally I much prefer the role of a care assistant...for me I have to ask "in the role of a support worker, what is being supported?" whereas in the role of a care assistant I ask "how I am assisting in their care", and being honest I still find myself struggled much more with answering the question around a support worker!...it's just far too ambiguous to me!
@@iamthegame09 I suppose it varies from place to place. At my school we're called care/support staff indistinctly since we do both. But yes, of course bad practices are bound to happen, but that doesn't mean the role itself is bad, but rather that support workers need to be trained and monitored better. For every activity we do with the young people we support for instance, we fill a document that has legal value and shows what positive effect we think the activity will have for that person. That, and essentially we have to document pretty much all that we do on a daily basis.
Hello Brandon Trust, I am currently doing a study into Support worker personality traits and was wondering if you would be interested in taking part. The study is a 10 min survey online wolverhamptonpsych.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9AXDWBj9fcQ0d9z if you don't want to take part that is completely fine but it would be really cool if you could share it!
