SUPPORT COORDINATION SERVICES

 

Support Coordination services are services that assist participants in gaining access to needed programs and State plan services such as medical benefits assistance, social, educational and other services. The Support Coordinator is responsible for developing and maintaining the Individualized Service Plan with the  participant, their family (if applicable), and other team members designated by the participant. The Support Coordinator's role consists of 4 general functions: individual discovery, plan development, coordination of services, and monitoring.

ELIGIBILITY FOR DIVISION-FUNDED SERVICES

​Caring For Families Social Services will help link the individual to the services needed and assist the individual in identifying service providers as needed. The Support Coordinator also ensures that the services and supports remain within the allotted budget and monitor the delivery of services. In designing the plan, Caring For Families Social Services considers the unique characteristics and needs of the individual as expressed by the individual and others who know the person, such as family, friends, service providers, etc.
