This book demonstrates very clearly how the personalisation of
support and services works in practice. The authors describe how
Jennie, a young person with autism and learning difficulties, was
supported through the transition from school to living
independently using simple, evidence-based person-centred planning
tools. Jennie's story illustrates the importance of quality
person-centred reviews, dispels the many myths surrounding
Individual Service Funds and personal budgets and demonstrates how
families, schools and other agencies can work collaboratively to
help young people with disabilities move into adulthood with more
choice and control over their lives, and with better life
prospects. Practical pointers for readers to apply to their own
circumstances are included, and the book contains helpful examples
of the key person-centred thinking tools. Anyone involved in
supporting children and young people with disabilities as they
approach adulthood, including parents and carers, SENCOs, teachers,
social workers and service providers, will find this to be
essential reading. More generally, it will be an informative
resource for those seeking a better understanding of how
personalisation and person-centred planning work in practice.
