As the new year begins, join the Disability Employment Technical Assistance Center (DETAC) and the National Center on Advancing Person-Centered Practices and Systems (NCAPPS) for a webinar focused on strengthening the connection between person-centered planning and advancing competitive, integrated employment.
Person-centered planning is an innovative process designed to learn about the choices and interests that make up a person’s idea of a good life. NCAPPS will highlight five competency domains, also known as skill areas, as a guide for human service agency staff tasked with facilitating person-centered planning. The panel will also review these skill areas in the context of real-world examples to support discovery, exploration, and planning for employment support.
Participants will:
- Learn how person-centered planning and competitive, integrated employment are connected.
- Understand elements of the five competency domains (skill areas) for person-centered planning.
- Apply these elements to concrete strategies to maximize successful employment support.
Speakers:
- Saska Rajcevic, Co-Director, NCAPPS
- Kate Brady, Project Manager, NCAPPS
Registrants can note accommodation needs — such as captioning or sign language — on the registration page. The webinar will be live captioned. Webinars are recorded and posted with supporting materials on the DETAC website.
