The Foundation
These principles aren't aspirational — they're required by CMS and enforceable by your state Medicaid agency.
Individuals direct their own services, choices, and life decisions — support follows the person, not the system.
Plans reflect the full ecosystem of support around the individual, not just paid services.
Plans build on what individuals can do and aspire to, not just what they need help with.
Goals prioritize meaningful participation in community life aligned with individual preferences.
Every plan upholds the individual's fundamental rights and dignity, with zero tolerance for rights restrictions without proper process.
Plans evolve with the person — reviewed regularly and updated when life circumstances change.
The Process
From foundational training to complex plan facilitation — we help agencies deliver genuine person-centered care.
Comprehensive training for care coordinators, DSPs, and leadership on the principles and practice of genuine person-centered planning.
Expert facilitation and documentation support for complex plans, including individuals with challenging communication needs.
Transform vague aspirations into measurable, meaningful goals with clear data collection systems that demonstrate progress.
Navigate the balance between supporting autonomy and managing risk with legally sound, person-centered risk assessment protocols.
Build and strengthen the natural support networks that are central to long-term quality of life for individuals in waiver programs.
