On this site we will focus on issues related to establishing budget allocations for people with developmental disabilities so that they can get the services they need.  We expect that these allocations will be informed by systematic assessment of individual support needs.  Primarily, we use the Supports Intensity Scale to provide essential information on individual needs.  At the least, the resulting allocations should be sufficient for each person, fair to all and promote system efficiency. 

Getting from "here to there" is not an easy task that goes quickly.  There are many issues to work through, and so, a lot to talk about.  

So...  let's start talking!  On this site you will be able to find useful information on issues related to setting individual budget allocations. Check back often to see what new information is available and what topics are discussed on our Blog page.
