The second part of the “RING OF SAFETY” is: privacy awareness. Privacy is a very important thing to learn, because too many times privacy is violated in the lives of people with disabilities. This happens when staff is allowed to walk into bathrooms and bedrooms
without PERMISSION! When people learn that they have the right to
privacy and that their bodies belong to them, they better understand abuse. They also understand that no one can see or touch their bodies without their permission. This is a very important thing for people to learn.
