Florida Self-Directed Care hinges on the belief that individuals are capable of choosing services and making purchases that will help them begin or remain on the road to recovery. A system of purchasing has been developed that is driven by individual choice. The goal of FloridaSDC is to promote and respect self-determination, recovery and full community inclusion for people who have been diagnosed with mental illnesses and who depend on government subsidized mental wellness services. Participants in FloridaSDC select the providers, services, and items that they deem necessary for recovery and the achievement of the highest level of desired wellness and quality of life.
