The Self-Direction Center is happy to support Brandeis University in recruiting participants for a study on self-direction.

Brandeis University is conducting a study to explore the experiences of self-direction for disabled people of color and their families. The purpose is to learn about the challenges, supports, and benefits of self-direction for people of color.

We need help in finding a few more participants to be in the study.

Individuals who answer yes to the below may be eligible to participate in this study. 

  • Are you 18 years of age or older?
  • Are you a disabled person of color?
  • Do recruit, hire, train or supervise your direct care workers AND/OR 
  • Do you have control over a budget and decide how to spend the money on your services?


Here is a video that explains more about the study: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_MUYdizbOU
