Description

Scheduling-Discovery Plan The North Dakota Scheduling-Discovery Plan (ND SDP) is a program developed by the North Dakota Department of Human Services (ND DHS) to help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) access and coordinate needed services and supports. The ND SDP provides a comprehensive process for individuals to identify their needs, develop the skills needed to become self-advocates, and locate services that match their needs. The ND SDP is composed of four distinct phases: (1) Discovery, (2) Planning, (3) Scheduling, and (4) Implementation. During the Discovery phase, the individual and their team (which may include family, friends, or designated professionals) will work together to identify the individual’s strengths, interests, and needs. This phase also includes an evaluation of the individual’s current services and supports to identify gaps or areas of need. The Planning phase involves developing a plan that outlines the individual’s goals and objectives as well as the steps needed to achieve them. This phase also includes finding resources, such as organizations, agencies, and programs, that may be able to provide the services and supports needed. The Scheduling phase involves coordinating the services and supports identified in the plan. This includes establishing a timeline for when services and supports will be received and ensuring that any necessary paperwork is completed. The Implementation phase involves making sure the services and supports outlined in the plan are received. This phase also includes monitoring the individual’s progress to ensure they are receiving the necessary services and supports. The ND SDP is designed to be a comprehensive process that focuses on the individual’s strengths, interests, and needs. It is a flexible and adaptive process that can be tailored to the specific needs of the individual.
