Self-Determination (AB468) for Regional Center clients will soon be piloted in our region. This presentation provides an overview of the law, with real-world examples. It focuses on the basics, assuming most people have only a vague understanding of the new law’s requirements and potential impact. Discussed is how Self-Determination fits within the broader context of empowering people to take control of their own lives and how it differs from traditional service delivery through regional centers.
