Service & Support Agreements

"Stumbling blocks fade away when the parties stress a need for openness. There should be no surprises. The agency spokesperson should ask the parents what their primary concerns are." — Art Dykstra
A well-crafted service and support agreement can contribute significantly to the quality of life for a person with an intellectual or developmental disability. Major issues will occasionally arise between a provider of services and the person served. How well they are resolved depends on how well expectations and responsibilities were discussed and agreed to beforehand.
Service and Support Agreements covers essential concerns such as which services or program areas will be provided, the specific supports to be included, communications, medical services and financial services. A sample agreement form is included.
