Person-Centered Planning
Person-centered planning is a process for planning for the life that the person wants for themselves. It involves working closely with the person and their support network to help develop a plan that places the individual at the center. This approach empowers people to plan their life, find their voice, and work toward reaching their goals. In this planning process, we apply person centered thinking and person-centered principles to ensure that the individual remains the focal point of all components.
