Support Self-Directed Service Coordination

Self-Direction

• Enables personal choice – manage staff, services, supports, budget, and schedule.
• Empowers individuals to choose their own service providers, which can create strong relationships to the staff and connections to the community.
• Decision control for the Individual over key choices, like where they live, work, and volunteer.
• Results in better quality of services and supports, with many states reporting that individuals who self-direct see improved fiscal and clinical results.
