What is Self Determination?
Self Determination is a program for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the State of California. This program is designed to take the funds spent on supports and services through the regional center using vendored agencies and put them in the hands of the individuals and their families. Individuals in Self Determination are provided a budget and have the freedom to purchase services to meet their needs on the open market outside of the limitations of regional center vendored providers.
