Person-centered Plan Samples

From one FACT mom:

I did [a person-centered plan] after attending one of the FACT trainings and before we completed [my son's] IEP evaluation.  I cannot even begin to tell you how IMPORTANT the addition of this brochure helped during the IEP process (they even reference it in his IEP and direct the reader to look at it for additional information). 
 
Additionally, it has helped his school teachers, aids, caregivers, Sunday school teachers, family members etc… They are able to see at a glance helpful information about his strengths and areas that are challenging for him.
