A 16-year-old youth who has a developmental disability and lives in a group home asked us for information about his rights.

Stories like these are real-life examples of how we can help young people with issues or complaints they have about a service provider. If you feel like no one is listening, you’re not being treated fairly or your rights aren’t being respected, you’re not alone.
