Quarterly Question

Why is my budget smaller than that of my child's friend? The individual budget is the amount of regional center funding available to you to purchase the services, activities, and items you need to implement your PCP and IPP and ensure your health and safety. The amount is decided by the IPP team and can be adjusted up or down because of a change in circumstances or unmet need.

Everyone is different and has different needs. That's why every participant has an individual budget. Services are based on need. There is no "one size fits all." Budget size should not be compared to that of other participants.
