Virtual Training - Rights: May 2026

May 13, 2026
12:00pm – 4:00pm CT
$75 per registrant

Voting, practicing religion, accessing food, receiving a fair wage, having privacy, voicing opinions… they’re all rights that all of us have! Despite this, Personal Outcome Measures® data reveals that only 43.5% of people with disabilities receive organizational supports to exercise their rights.

During the training titled ‘Everyone Has Rights!’ attendees will gain insight into better understanding people’s rights and supporting people in protecting and promoting their rights.

In this session, CQL explores a wide variety of rights, and shares strategies for supporting people receiving services to learn about and exercise their rights. Attendees will learn about research related to rights, discover best practices, and take part in engaging discussions. In addition, participants will find out about the crucial role that Human Rights Committees (HRCs) play in protecting rights, ensuring due process, and reviewing rights restrictions.

Training Objectives

• Receive an overview about the importance of rights
• Explore the principles of identifying and understanding rights
• Discover examples of protecting rights in everyday supports
• Hear real-world scenarios of rights advocacy and promotion
• Identify specific strategies to support rights
• Learn tips for creating and maintaining Human Rights Committees

Registrants from organizations that are pursuing or have achieved CQL Accreditation can receive a 5% discount on this training. If you meet those eligibility requirements, please contact CQL prior to registering so we can provide a coupon code.

There is a 3% convenience fee for online transactions if an organization chooses that payment method. CQL prefers payment via invoice/check or using an automated clearing house (ACH) network. This allows organizations to take advantage of the most cost-effective payment option and avoid the convenience fee. Please contact CQL for more information about these preferred payment options.

Note: If you choose to pay online, the automated receipt may incorrectly display the 3% convenience fee as a sales tax. This fee is not a sales tax, but only displays that way due how the processing system inputs the information.
