Self-Directed Services

CSB’s Self-Directed Services Celebrates Its First Decade of Service

Finding the Right Fit: Self-Directed Services for people with disabilities

“My special needs daughter is on a [waiting] list ‘a mile long’ for services from traditional sources; self-directed services have been a godsend.”

“The Self-Directed Services funding has allowed flexibility and opportunities for my daughter to fully participate in activities that are more meaningful and, most importantly, her choice. We are grateful she has this choice!”

These parents echo comments made by many whose adult children participate in the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board’s (CSB) Self-Directed Services (SDS) program, now in its 10th year of helping adults with developmental disabilities learn or improve important skills that enable them to be active and thrive in their communities.
