Person-Following Financing Empowers Choice

The old way of treating disabilities was completely backwards. For decades, society just funded

big institutions and told people where they had to live. But the script finally

flipped. Now, the money follows the person, not the building.

It is called Person-Following Financing. Instead of a clinic getting paid to manage you,

you get the budget to hire your own assistants or choose your own care. It shifts you from

being a patient to being the boss. We finally stopped funding the brick walls and started

funding the actual humans inside them.
