About
Peter Park is the founder and mentor of Respecting Rights. He is well-loved and known to many as the Godfather of self-advocacy. Peter survived the institutional system and has devoted his life to human rights advocacy for people labeled with intellectual disabilities. He co-founded People First in the late 1970’s, and has traveled the world teaching others about their rights. Peter decided around 2010 that working alongside the rights lawyers at ARCH Disability Law Centre would strengthen the work of self-advocacy, and co-founded Respecting Rights.
