    SERVICE PLAN DEVELOPMENT

    By definition, a person-centered approach discovers and then acts on what is important to a person. This approach requires that workers listen, learn and focus on those things the people they serve value and/or see as important. The development of a person-centered service plan requires highly effective workers who come to understand how values are a central part of an effective planning process. These sessions will look at the person-centered approach and the skills workers must have in identifying values, the ability to balance competing values, and a very high level of awareness of how their own values can influence the dynamic nature of professional relationships with participants as well as understand the role values can play in conflict. These sessions will be presented by Bradley Levan, PCMI, a nationally recognized trainer who provides training and consultation to those working in the field of community based services. Course objectives follow. A more detailed session description is availlable by call the LTLTI at 717-541-4214.
