Horizon House's Person-Centred Planning Pilot Project started last year. Horizon House aimed to train and provide ongoing support for a group of volunteers who would be able to facilitate Person-Centred Planning (PCP) in the first instance with Horizon House members who wanted to use this service.
For the time being the support and training of volunteers is being funded by Horizon House and the service has, to date, been exclusively for members of Horizon House.

Person-centred planning and person-centred thinking are central themes in government policy for people with learning disabilities. The same ideas are also, of course, just as important in social services for other groups of people.
The NDT provides training courses on person-centred planning for staff in services, and for people with learning disabilities. These include training to introduce people to the principles and methods used in person-centred planning, and also training to learn how to help other people make their own plans.

We envision a world where all people have positive control over the lives they have chosen for themselves.
Our efforts focus on people who have lost or may lose positive control because of society's response to the presence of a disability. This site helps us foster a global learning community that shares knowledge for that purpose. All are welcome here to share and learn.
