We are the Canadian Centre for Decision-Making Capacity
Creating Clear Pathways for Independent, Supported or Substitute Decision-Making
Our Vision
Canada regarded as a global leader in the way personal autonomy is understood, supported, respected and preserved wherever possible.
Vulnerable people, supported/substitute decision makers and organizations to have practical tools, training and standards to respond to risk factors for incapacity.
Our Mission
Appropriately protecting and promoting the personal autonomy of vulnerable people in Canada by improving the quality, consistency and integrity of decision-making protocols across capacity screening and assessment for fiduciary, health, legal, housing and financial sectors –though collaboration, innovation, iteration, education, application, training and research.
Why It Matters
Your voice matters - so start protecting it with clarity. The Canadian Centre for Decision-Making Capacity believes that understanding and preparing for decision-making incapacity is not just a legal necessity, it’s a human right. Incapacity Literacy is reducing the stigma and building the needed trust between Canadian businesses, planning professionals, and substitute decision makers to help vulnerable people when it matters most.
