Proposals are being accepted to provide an individualized follow-up to all Resource Fair registrants and/or participants (the population = approx. 100 individuals). We are of the belief that an individualized follow-up session can help the persons served to understand next steps and suggested resources to accelerate their participation (or decision not to participate) in Self Determination. While there is an abundance of materials and information available, it can be challenging for families and self-advocates to identify their best path forward, especially given all the other challenges on their plates. This project can help “fill the gap” between initial interest in SDP and being connected to an Independent Facilitator and FMS who can work with the participant to drive the process to completion.
