Assuring Individual Rights:



The Price of Liberty



In this informative and provocative presentation, Dr. Pomeranz compares and contrasts the concepts of "Being free from" versus "Being free to." Significant attention is focused on the covenant we hold with those we support of "do no harm." Tom details how this all important covenant serves to restrict people's options. Bounded choice as well as enlightened risk is central to assuring the protection of individual rights. A prevailing theme of the presentation is that there are no rights without responsibility. The session concludes with a discussion of the implications of risk assessment and managed risk as a framework in protecting individual rights.

Tom needs to come back and teach anything – he makes you want to learn more. He made you look at your job and your well being differently. Thank you! EduCare, Las Vegas, NV


Hurrah! It’s time we instill self worth and self determination in those we support. Gave me a whole new perspective on how to go about doing my job as a service coordinator and how to treat the people we serve. ECCO, Inc. Madison, SD
