A New Plan renews the promise of person-centered planning with powerful, research-based positive psychology skills and tools. Authors Dykstra and Dykstra build on the foundation of historical contributions to advance their "10 Principles of Person-Centered Planning." They reflect on the reasons people don't plan and stress the importance of addressing personal outcomes. A New Plan introduces the role of the Champion in the life of a person who has disabilities and includes a new implementation framework, along with the specific action steps needed to enable a person to flourish and live their best life possible. The authors also stress the importance of cultivating a positive organizational culture. They include the Organizational Inventory of Person-Centeredness that allows readers and providers to assess their person-centered efforts and find areas to address for continuous improvement.
