Person-Centered Planning as a Contributing Factor in Organizational and Social Change.

O'Brien, John

Research and Practice for Persons with Severe Disabilities, v27 n4 p261-64 Win 2002

This article comments on the previous article (Holburn, 2002), that argues misapplied approaches of person-centered planning can be remedied through scientific practices. It cautions against testing person-centered planning like a drug to establish its causal power and stresses person-centered planning as a way to improve the odds that change will happen.
