Webinar: Support Brokerage Services and What You Need To Know
As a service provided in the Division of Developmental Disabilities service system, Supports brokers are the linchpin of the self-directed service model, fostering independence, social engagement, and choice. This orientation provides an overview of self-determination, self-direction, and the basic principles of person-centered thinking and planning. Participants will learn how Supports Brokers collaborate with the person receiving supports, Support Coordinators, the Fiscal Intermediary, and Self-Directed Employees to bring the service plan to life. Building community connections and identifying supports outside of the formal service system will also be discussed.
