Our Circle of Support Model
Everyone receiving services from JNCS works with a Circle of Support comprised of the person being supported, family, friends, associates, allies, and other community members the individual chooses. The circle of support meets every four to six weeks depending on the person’s choice.
Decisions made by the individual as well as the circle members include deciding which support staff to hire or terminate, what individualized day-to-day support is appropriate for the individual, what backup and emergency support is needed, and many others. This model maintains the individual’s control over their life.
