Our Process
Discovery | Developing Meaningful Goals | Management of Your Life Plan | Quarterly and Annual Updates
Discovery
This is how we get to know you and how to support your life.
The Discovery process includes spending time with you, observing you at work and in activities, an intake process to review existing information, and a discussion about your goals.
The purpose of the Discovery process is to create a full description of you that includes your strengths, interests, and preferences for how you like to participate, learn, and socialize. It includes a description of your support needs at home and in the community. The Discovery will include a statement about your goals and what is most important to you in your everyday life.
An important part of the Discovery process is to allow you to get to know your case manager and build trust and strong communication.
Developing Meaningful Goals
During the Discovery process your case manager will work with you and your support team to create meaningful goals in the following areas:
- Advocacy and life skills
- Healthy relationships
- Work / vocational goals
- Volunteer and community service
- Planning social activities
- Health and wellness
- Daily and weekend routines to promote independence and mental wellness
Management of Your Life Plan
We will monitor the plan you create, communicate and collaborate with all members of your support team to be sure things are going the way they should, according to the plan. This will include:
- Weekly meetings with you and members of your support team.
- Communication with other professionals, i.e. coaches, support workers, case managers and providers to answer questions.
- Support for you, your family, and your support team to navigate and understand the disability and medical system.
Quarterly and Annual Updates
- We will meet with you in person and provide a written description of progress and include photos, and video where appropriate.
- Your case manager will meet with you and your support team to develop an annual update on quality of life, goals and revisions to support and services as needed.
- Your annual update will focus on positive outcomes and identifying opportunities to enhance the quality of your life.
