 | COMMUNITY LIVING HURONIA |
PERSON CENTERED PHILOSOPHY
In 1992, Community Living Huronia's values, mission
statement and goals were translated into a Person Centered Approach to planning.
Our approach to planning is person focused, flexible, future oriented, open and positive. It is not restricted by service, or current support available and is based on the premises that it is important to dream, and that we believe people belong in their community. People need to participate in community activities, develop lasting relationships, have real options and be supported to make meaningful choices.
An individual’s strengths and abilities are the focus. We look seriously at what the person wants, their hopes, dreams and desires, and brainstorm how to support them to achieve their goals. It provides an individual with the opportunity to express their needs and wishes, explore options, plan for their future and address issues as they arise.
Community Living Huronia's approach to personal planning has evolved and been woven into the way we support people on a day to day basis.
Person Centered Planning is only one aspect of helping others live satisfying lives. We continue to learn more about making dreams a reality by challenging ourselves and others. We are actively seeking better ways to serve people on an ongoing basis.
