Know Your Rights: Life Planning
All people, including those we support, have the same rights. Person Centered Services is dedicated to helping people exercise their rights and reach their potential.
People with intellectual and developmental disabilities have a right to control their life planning process.
Life planning is an ongoing process that helps our members ensure they are receiving the services and supports they need to help them lead the lives they want.
