Description: Brokerage providers help eligible individuals to identify and coordinate the supports they may need. A personal agent works with the eligible individual and acts as a facilitator for the supports. Some examples of supports are budgeting, meal planning, job coaching and respite care. Each customer is assigned to a Personal Agent (who acts as a service coordinator/case manager) who assists in arranging services and resources. The Personal Agent (PA) collaborates with customers and his/her support team to create an Individualized Support Plan utilizing person-centered planning. The Individualized Support Plan addresses the goals, dreams, preferences, strengths, health/safety risks, and service needs of each individual customer.
