What do Support Brokerage Agencies do?
Supports Brokerage Agencies help people with disabilities and their families manage self-directed services and supports.
They act as intermediaries to help navigate budgets, hire and supervise staff, and connect with community resources to live the life they choose.
A Supports Broker helps ensure the individual’s needs and wants are met by assisting with tasks such as staff recruitment and training, and by managing service budgets, while coordinating with case managers and other support services.
What they do
Facilitate Self-Direction: They empower individuals to manage their own care and services by guiding them on how to utilize their budget and direct their support.
Employer-Related Support: Brokers assist with recruiting, hiring, training, and supervising personal support staff, as well as managing employer-related tasks.
Community Connection: They help individuals expand their social networks by identifying and connecting them to community-based resources, clubs, and opportunities.
Budget Management: Supports Brokers in helping individuals make the best use of their service budgets, ensuring funds are allocated appropriately to meet their needs.
Advocacy and Problem-Solving: Brokers serve as advocates, communicating with various parties to prevent breakdowns in communication and finding solutions for the individual and their family.
Coordination and Navigation: They help coordinate services and navigate resources, acting as a liaison between the individual, case managers, government agencies, and community supports.
Skill-Building: Brokers provide training and mentoring to individuals and their families to build the skills needed for independent self-direction.
Support Planning: While not replacing a case manager, a Support Broker can help identify needs and wants to contribute to the overall care or individual support plan (ISP).
Examples include well-known groups such as the American Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, and Habitat for Humanity, which rely on donations and volunteers to fund their operations and fulfill their missions.
