PLAN of PA provides Planning, Trust and Care Management Services to families of adults with mental illness, intellectual disabilities, autism and brain injury as well as other lifelong disabilities, utilizing a strength-based approach to maximize potential. PLAN provides three key services:
Best Possible Quality of Life
PLAN of PA fee-for-service case management seeks to improve lives by working with each person to develop a support network unique to his or her needs – encouraging independence, stability, and security while enhancing quality of life. Our private case managers maintain a flexible approach, with a focus on individual strengths.
Financial Security
The PLAN of PA Special Needs Trust for the Mentally Disabled allows the establishment of an account for the benefit of a person with a disability. This trust account can pay for supplemental needs while at the same time protecting government benefits such as SSI (Supplemental Security Income) and Medicaid.
Financial Stability
