PLAN is guided and inspired by four core principles:

  1. Caring relationships are the key to safety, security and a good life.
  2. People with disabilities have important contributions to make to our communities, and they should be recognized for their contributions.
  3. Independence from government funding builds resiliency and allows individuals and families to make decisions without fear of consequences.
  4. PLAN is structured to ensure it will always be directed by and accountable to families.
