A support worker is someone who looks after the well-being of people in their daily lives. They help people living with different physical disabilities and mental health needs to live their lives more independently and support them to reach their potential by providing both physical and emotional support. This book comes from nearly 15 years experience working in the field of social care, specifically with people with learning disabilities and Autism. It comes from first hand experience and aims to use my learning to give help to others finding themselves in this type of work, and also to show all the aspects of support work, an underrated and under appreciated job, that's harder than many people think. The book covers many aspects about supporting people from sexuality, behaviour management, bureaucracy, working with families and much more. Using real life stories and experiences to illustrate the often unpredictable world of social care.

Individual rights and freedoms that didn't exist for people with developmental disabilities are now being recognized, for the first time in history. The expectations of people coming into services have changed, and will continue to change as more people claim their rightful place in community. The next chapter of the community living movement is being written right now, by the people who are living it. Self advocates are claiming this movement as their own, emerging as leaders in their own right as never before. The skills needed to support their self-determination - to support people to author their own lives, to paraphrase John O'Brien - are different skills than the ones we've relied on in the past. This book is for the front line supporters who will walk with this generation into the future and work with them to navigate a path forward.

During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Americans with all sorts of disabilities came to be labeled as "unproductive citizens." Before that, disabled people had contributed as they were able in homes, on farms, and in the wage labor market, reflecting the fact that Americans had long viewed productivity as a spectrum that varied by age, gender, and ability. But as Sarah F. Rose explains in No Right to Be Idle, a perfect storm of public policies, shifting family structures, and economic changes effectively barred workers with disabilities from mainstream workplaces and simultaneously cast disabled people as morally questionable dependents in need of permanent rehabilitation to achieve "self-care" and "self-support." By tracing the experiences of policymakers, employers, reformers, and disabled people caught up in this epochal transition, Rose masterfully integrates disability history and labor history. She shows how people with disabilities lost access to paid work and the status of "worker--a shift that relegated them and their families to poverty and second-class economic and social citizenship. This has vast consequences for debates about disability, work, poverty, and welfare in the century to come.
