Person-Centered Planning Principles
Person-Centered Principles
Participants supported by Housing Access Coordination (HAC) seek housing based on their person-centered plans. Person-centered principles and ways of thinking provide a foundation for all housing plans.
Person-centeredness focuses on four main principles:
- Relationships – valuing the uniqueness of each person.
- Compassion – caring to build a connection with people and wanting the best for them.
- Empowerment – providing information and options for people and their supporters.
- Choice – respecting the right of individuals to make their own choices.
