Are you confused about what your support coordinators will be doing for you?  Do you wonder if the services you receive from the Agency for Persons with Disabilities in the state of Florida will change?  Do you know what tier will you be placed in? 

There is a wonderful new website full of information that you need.  Whether you are persons who receives services from APD, a parent, family member, support coordinator, or service providor, check out this new webpage.  There is great information at Aaron Nangel’s new website:  supportcoordinators.com.  This is a must see for anyone involved with persons with developmental disabilties. 

In regard to your services, we suggest that you get the name and phone number of the person who is doing your new support plan.  This is an APD employee, not your support coordinator.  Under the new cost structures, your support coordinator’s responsiblity has been altered.  S/he will be paid significantly less to give you services.  Therefore, you must know the person who does your support plans and is responsible for billing of your services.
