Service Options
KDC’s Family Support Center case managers assist individuals and families with comprehensive and individualized short-term and extended Service Navigation supports.
Our efforts are driven by the belief that families are experts regarding their strengths, competencies, and needs and know best how they would like to be supported to provide for their family member with a disability. The enter’s case managers work to formulate choices and partnerships, with the individuals and their family members; that are grounded in proactive and reciprocal communication, dignity and respect for the individual being supported.
All families are invited to participate and to drive the planning process for the topics offered.
These service elements provide the framework for the implementation of DDS operating principles for guiding family support and vision of self-determination
