Disability Hub MN offers online resources and tools that make it easier for professionals to help people with disabilities live their best life.
Our library of interactive toolkits helps professionals learn new concepts to build person-centered practices. Visit disabilityhubmn.org/for-professionals to find:
-
Informed Choice Toolkit - As a support professional, you need to make
sure people you support have opportunities to make meaningful choices. This toolkit helps you understand informed choice and introduces you to tools to help people get the support they need to control their own lives.
-
Benefits Planning Toolkit - Benefits should never be the reason a person chooses not to work. In fact, work and benefits can go together. This toolkit gives you access to information, resources, tools and trainings to support people and understand how to address their concerns.
-
Work Toolkit - All people have the right to fulfilling, competitive integrated employment. This toolkit will introduce you to steps you can take and tools you can use to help people with disabilities make informed choices about work and reach their goals.
-
Housing Toolkit - Support people to explore housing options and reach their housing goals. This toolkit will introduce you to practical steps and tools you can use to help people with disabilities explore their options, as well as short- and long- term housing supports.
-
Youth in Transition Toolkit - This toolkit introduces you to Minnesota’s Youth in Transition Framework—the benchmark for high quality transition services in Minnesota. Explore information, tools and resources for delivering quality transition planning and programming.
