Integrated Supports: In the past, conversations about supports for people with disabilities mainly revolved around the supports offered by the disability system. LifeCourse Planning helps individuals and families access an array of integrated supports to achieve an envisioned good life, including those that are publically or privately funded and based upon eligibility; community supports that are available to anyone; relationship-based supports; technology, and
supports that take into account the assets and strengths of the individual and family. LifeCourse Planning helps everyone realize that we ALL need an array of supports in our lives daily.

Personal Profile: Planning works best when individuals and families are able to successfully communicate to others about what is most important in the person’s life. Use of the One-Page Profile provides an at-a-glance way of knowing what really matters to the person, and can be taken with them as they move through services and come into contact with different people. The Personal Profile helps others to understand what to pay attention to and what works best to create positive change for the person.

“Before” and “After” LifeCourse Planning
Everyone uses a variety of community resources and supports to get through their day-to-day routines and everyday lives. The Supports and Services Schedule can be used to help you visualize and plan:
- Current community activities and supports an individual utilizes or participates in.
- Identify what community resources and supports may be needed for the
individual to pursue additional interests and life goals. - To plan a weekly schedule.
This is a visual representation of an individual’s daily activities and supports “before” – when all support was provided by the parents and the disability
system, and “after” when LifeCourse Planning was applied to the individual’s life to include greater community participation and involvement using both natural and formal supports.
