   We learn about the person's needs, goals, and current supports, and answer questions about our services.

3. Step 3

   Coordinate

   We work with the person's case manager or support coordinator on eligibility and service authorization through Idaho's programs.

4. Step 4

   Plan and begin

   Together we build a person-centered plan and schedule the start of services.
