Course 4: Common Threads Among
Person-Centered Planning Tools
Activity
- Review the descriptions of each of the person-centered planning
tools identified in this web-site.
- Try to identify at least one element that distinguishes the process
you are reviewing from the other processes described.
- Divide a sheet of writing paper in half by drawing a line
from the top to the bottom of the paper. In the left column
make a list of the process you are reviewing and the unique
characteristics/distinctions you have discovered about this
tool.
- Think about the conditions under which this tool might be helpful in planning with a person. Write these conditions in the right column associated with this tool.
The purpose of this activity is to have you become familiar with the basic structure
of each of the planning tools so that you are better able to describe
the tools and their functions to help people who are considering using
a person-centered planning process make a decision about which of
the processes may best serve their purpose.
