The Self-Directed Services Committee is comprised of Region 1 agencies that provide Self Direction Services (Fiscal Intermediary and/or Agency Support Brokering Services). We are collaborating to improve quality, consistency, and advocacy surrounding Self Direction. We work to identify actions that can help improve services for those we support, advocates, providers, and those we employ. We engage with OPWDD as needed for guidance and clarification, as well as to advocate. We discuss both quick topics we call “sprints”, where we focus more on sharing information and best practices, and “hot topics”, which may need substantial discussion and advocacy. Our goal is to ensure consistent, fair, and equitable opportunities under the SDS program.
Join this Committee dedicated to enhancing member agencies’ development of Self-Directed Services.
