 March 25, 2010, 9:30 am - Noon Using Person-Centered Thinking to Develop Person-Centered Organizations Michael Smull, Support Development Associates, Annapolis, MD If we are to have a system that supports self-determination for everyone, people with disabilities who use the services will need to: know what they want; have enough control over funding to buy those pieces that need to be paid for; and, have access to agencies that will supply the supports they want to buy. Michael Smull has done more to explore how these can occur for everyone, regardless of the significance of their disability, than probably any one else to date. Whether this is the first time you have heard Michael Smull or you’ve heard him many times, join one of the great thinkers of the day in this engaging workshop. This session will focus on how we can transform our agencies by using person-centered thinking skills.
