Person Centered Planning
A Person Centered Plan is a tool for determining gifts, strengths, and needs as
well as results oriented goals and objectives. By nature of the funding system
in Illinois, agencies that provide adult services may find it difficult to
provide person centered planning. Even though the funding is for services for
the individual, the agency controls the money. Typically, funding supports
programs that already exist within an agency. This makes it necessary for
families to think creatively when working with agencies willing to support
person centered planning. The person centered plan allows for more choices
across agencies and their programs. Inherently in person centered planning is
the opportunity to shop around for services.
