📋 Tender Overview
In self-direction, people receiving long-term services and supports use a personalized budget to meet their needs through a person-centered planning process. Self-direction provides people maximum control over the services they receive. While every state offers some form of self-direction, utilization to date has not been as expansive as advocates imagined.
In 2022, the National Center on Advancing Person-Centered Practices and Systems (NCAPPS) determined that there was a need for a national effort to expand the quality and availability of self-direction as a person-centered option available to a wide variety of potential participants. To achieve this goal, NCAPPS created the Self-Direction Learning Collaborative, which brought together teams and experts from across the country to learn from each other as they worked to improve self-direction in their states during a period of 18 months. This webinar will highlight the successes of two Learning Collaborative teams: Colorado and Ohio.
