What is Support Coordinator?

In plain English

A funded support whose job is to help you understand your plan, find providers and resolve problems. Funded inside your plan rather than by the NDIA directly.

A support coordinator is a funded support whose job is to help you make the most of your plan. They help you understand your funding, find and connect with providers, sort out problems and build your own skills to manage supports over time. Support coordination is funded inside your plan under Capacity Building. A good coordinator works themselves out of a job by helping you grow more independent.
