Self-Determination Program Orientation

The Self-Determination Program has been life changing for many regional center clients by giving them more independence, freedom, and control over their services and lives. This program provides families with more control and flexibility over needed services and supports. Participants are provided with an individual budget, from which they can purchase services and supports to implement the individual plan program or IPP. This means that families can purchase services from traditional providers or local businesses, hire their support workers directly, or negotiate arrangements with groups and individuals in their communities. Attend an Orientation to learn more about this beneficial program or contact your service coordinator for more information.
