The Many Hats of a Regional Center Service Coordinator

A California Regional Center service coordinator helps people with developmental disabilities and their families get the services and supports they need. Service coordinators wear many hats! They meet with the person and family, write and update the person’s individual plan, find and arrange services and supports (like education and training, job supports, housing), check that services are working, respond in crises, and help families understand benefits and rules. They also keep records, report suspected abuse, and work with schools, doctors, and other agencies so everyone is on the same page. Download and read more about the many hats here.
