Summary
The goals of this project were to help young adults with developmental disabilities to better protect their privacy in the online and offline worlds, and share the new knowledge generated from the team’s research through innovative methods.
With input from the project's Advisory Committee and its community partner, Community Living Ontario, and through an interactive workshop with stakeholders, two toolkits for family caregivers and service providers were produced to help facilitate greater enhancement of privacy rights.
The research team also produced a project website, a privacy information infographic, a privacy rights information sheet, an educational video, and other material.
