“Whole Life” supports are just that ~ the whole life of an individual receiving supports. We become the means to an end, not the end.”
Wayne Alexander/CEO
“Whole Life” programming is beginning with all focusing on a vision or a dream, practical ways to get there, and building commitment – not starting from compromises based on what is. The charge is to emphasize the person’s strengths, gifts and talents, building on them and supporting the person in areas of individual needs – not a preoccupation with deficits and assessments of “what’s wrong with the person.” In addition, we need to consider the challenge in how the individual, family, friends and services can work together to achieve the vision. It is a TEAM effort with the individual in the lead.
LIFE is WHOLE!
