Welcome home to the Self-Determination Program internet home!!
Hi, I’m Sandra! My adult son is served by California’s Regional Center system and is a Self-
Determination Program participant. He is entering the 4 th year of his Self-Determination Program (as of
2024).
I am as involved as he lets me be in his program and Spending Plan development from year to year with
the goal of him and his Independent Facilitator managing his Program when he is ready.
For years, I have been going to meetings, participating in committees and workgroups regarding services
delivered by California’s Department of Developmental Services through the Regional Center system.
Inevitably, at all these meetings, someone says, “We need a centralized place to find all this
information!” The next comment usually is, “We need to find someone to give us a grant”.
Grants are hard to come by. And, grants come with expectations of the “grantor”.
So, the “California Self-Determination is ME” website is decidedly Self-Funded, with no Grants and no
Sponsorships so that the information on the site is unbiased and generated by the Self-Determination
Program Community FOR the Self-Determination Program community!
Maintaining a website comes with cost. We accept appropriate advertising and contributions to offset
that cost. We are not a non-for profit organization, so contributions cannot be used as tax write-offs.
I’m looking forward to meeting you!
