At the PCP&D meetings, the client will be asked about his/her life plans and goals and will be helped to develop outcomes they want to achieve. The people attending this meeting will help the person to decide what supports, services or treatment they need, who they would like to provide these services, how often they will need the services and where it will be provided. They have the right, under federal and state laws, to decide on a choice of Providers.
