Self-Determination is more than a program — it's a philosophy rooted in five powerful principles that put you in the driver's seat of your own life.
Live where you choose, with whom you choose, doing what matters most to you.
Control your own budget and decide how your public funds are spent.
Hire people who truly align with your personality, values, and goals.
Manage resources wisely and contribute meaningfully to your community.
Your role as a valued, contributing member of society is recognized and affirmed.
As a certified Independent Facilitator, Life Path Facilitation provides personalized, one-on-one guidance through every stage of the California Self-Determination Program. From your very first orientation meeting to active enrollment and beyond, you'll have a knowledgeable partner by your side.
Deep knowledge of DDS requirements, spending plans, and budgeting rules so nothing falls through the cracks.
Your goals, values, and vision always lead the way — we simply help you get there.
Support doesn't stop at enrollment. We're here for every review, adjustment, and milestone.

Every great journey begins with a clear map. Person-Centered Thinking places your voice at the absolute center of every decision, plan, and service.
We dig deep to identify what matters most to you, what works in your life, and where your unique strengths lie.
Your dreams and goals become the foundation of a living, breathing plan — not a static document filed away in a drawer.
Every service, every support, every decision is filtered through one question: does this reflect what you want?
The Self-Determination Program replaces the old system-driven funding model with an Individual Budget — real dollars you control, allocated to services that actually work for your life.
Your funding follows your goals, not a pre-set menu of services chosen by someone else.
Purchase the specific supports, tools, and services that genuinely move you forward — including options not available through traditional Regional Center.
We guide you in managing public funds responsibly, with careful planning and proactive foresight to protect your budget year-round.
Traditional Regional Center limits you to a narrow list of approved vendors. Self-Determination opens the door to a much wider world of support — one built around you, not the system.
Hire professionals, coaches, and support staff who truly match your personality and goals.
Integrate local organizations, clubs, and services that foster genuine inclusion and belonging.
Create a personal support circle that knows you, respects you, and grows with you over time.
Community connection is a cornerstone of a self-determined life. Our Life Path Social Group is a welcoming, peer-led space where individuals with disabilities build friendships, develop social skills, and celebrate personal growth — together.
A judgment-free environment where every voice is heard and every person is valued.
Social participation ties directly into your individualized plan, making connection a meaningful part of your progress.
Activities and outings designed to strengthen community bonds and foster real-world participation.


Moving from traditional Regional Center to the Self-Determination Program involves real paperwork, real deadlines, and real complexity. You won't face any of it alone.
From your very first orientation meeting to the moment your Self-Determination plan is fully active, Life Path Facilitation handles the complexity — so you can focus on your goals. We stay current on all DDS directives and Regional Center regulations so nothing catches you off guard.

Self-Determination isn't a one-time event — it's a living, evolving journey. Life Path Facilitation provides continuous consultation to keep your plan current, your budget optimized, and your autonomy fully protected.
We prepare and guide you through every yearly review, ensuring your goals and budget remain aligned with your life.
As your needs evolve, we proactively update your spending plan so resources go exactly where they're needed most.
Regular check-ins ensure you're moving forward — and that any changes in your life are reflected in your plan.
You deserve a life designed by you, for you. Whether you're just learning about Self-Determination or ready to make the leap, Life Path Facilitation is here to walk every step of the journey with you.
Let's talk about your goals, your current situation, and how the Self-Determination Program can change your life.
