Person-Centered Planning: Helping People with Disabilities Achieve Personal Outcomes (High Tide Monograph Series) (High Tide Disability)

Planning in the lives of people with developmental disabilities has moved beyond the "do this, do that" model of the past. A person now has the option of dreaming about and working towards a life of stimulation, fulfillment, variety, individuation and satisfaction. But, without a focused plan that serves the needs and wishes of the person and not the system, service providers fail to help people with disabilities to exercise those options.
