Independent Facilitation (IF)

At Wings of Wisdom, we offer Independent Facilitation to help adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) take charge of their own futures through California’s Self-Determination Program (SDP). Our certified facilitators are trained in self-determination principles and give clear, hands-on support every step of the way. From identifying goals to building a person-centered plan and understanding available services, we help make the process simple and meaningful.

Our facilitators don’t just guide paperwork; they partner with each person and their circle of support to make sure their plan is a true reflection of what really matters. With Wings of Wisdom’s Independent Facilitation, self-determination becomes not just a program but a lived reality.

Independent Facilitation (IF) Overview

• Participants in the Self-Determination Program (SDP) may choose someone who helps them implement this program.
• The IF assists the individual with making informed decisions regarding their budget. It also helps locate, access, and coordinate services and supports consistent with the participant’s PCP.
• Identify immediate and long-term needs and develop options to meet those needs.
