support coordinator

A support coordinator is a professional who helps individuals, often with disabilities or special needs, navigate and access various services and resources. They work with clients to understand their goals, needs, and preferences, then connect them with appropriate supports like healthcare, community programs, or funding options. Support coordinators also assist in planning, coordinating, and monitoring services to ensure they meet the individual’s needs effectively. Their role is to simplify complex systems, advocate on behalf of clients, and empower them to achieve greater independence and well-being through tailored support plans.
