Desired Outcomes: Moving Toward the ‘Good Life’
Desired Outcomes are the engine of planning, supporting the person’s vision of how life is going to be different or better because we planned together. This training is all about how to develop more meaningful Desired Outcomes with someone. We’ll focus on concepts such as trajectory and understanding a person’s perspective on their own “good life”, dispel common misconceptions and pitfalls when it comes to writing desired outcomes, and development strategies to set us up for success.

My journey in the I/DD field began in 2015 when I went to work at a foster home in McMinnville OR. I worked there for a few years and then transitioned into a case management role at a brokerage. I was a Personal Agent for a few years and provided person-centered support to adults who lived in their own homes. I worked briefly as a case manager in the APD field. I have been an OTAC trainer with the Arc Oregon since 2022 and love working with case managers and providers.
