Multiple Choice

What types of services are typically allowable under SDS?

Self-directed services empower a person to choose a broad mix of supports, not just a single category. Under SDS, the types typically allowable include in-home supports, personal assistance, respite, community inclusion, equipment and assistive technology, and related supports as approved. This reflects planning within an authorized budget and tailoring services to daily living, health and safety, participation, and the tools needed to complete tasks. The exact combination depends on what the plan and funding authority approve, so the full range is allowed when it’s needed and approved.
