Self-Directed Supports (SDS)

Take The Next Step Toward Self-Determination With Confidence

General Self-Directed Supports (General SDS)

Preparing to join the Self-Determination Program (SDP) can feel overwhelming, especially when you're learning about new responsibilities, budgets, and ways to arrange services.

At Wings of Wisdom, we help individuals and families understand the process and prepare for a successful transition into SDP. Once you've completed the required orientation, we can provide guidance, coaching, and practical assistance to help you understand your options and take the next steps with confidence.

Understanding Your Plan and Goals

We help you prepare for your Individual Program Plan (IPP) meeting, identify the support you need, and understand how your goals connect to services available through the Self-Determination Program.

Working With Your Regional Center and FMS

We help you understand each provider's responsibilities, coordinate communication, and prepare for the steps needed to enroll in Self-Determination.

Finding and Arranging Services

We help you explore providers, staff qualifications, and learn how to hire and manage support workers. We also guide you through comparing service options and understanding provider responsibilities.

Understanding Your Budget and Spending Plan

We help you understand your individual budget, prepare your spending plan, and organize services within your available funding. We also help you identify unmet needs and prepare clear justifications for additional support when needed
