PLAN of Southeastern Minnesota

Who will care for my loved one when I am no longer able to do so?


What is PLAN of Southeastern Minnesota?

PLAN is a program that provides supplemental care for persons with developmental or physical disabilities, mental illness and/or brain injury , on behalf of parents or other caregivers who are no longer able to do so themselves. PLAN works together with individuals and families.


The Goal:

The goal of PLAN is to provide lifelong caring support and assistance to individuals after their parents and/or caregivers are deceased or no longer able to care for their family member.


Components of PLAN:

PLAN aims to provide families and individuals assurance that someone will be available to monitor, care for, contact and advocate for a loved one with a disability when key family members are unable to do so.


Why is PLAN Beneficial to Families & Individuals?

Families are often closely involved in ensuring that their relative experiences high quality of life and meaningful experiences. With PLAN's assistance, you can plan for the present and the future. Together we will develop and implement a Personal Support Plan. A Personal Support Plan provides a comprehensive history of the family member's life and it serves as a way for families to express their future wishes and concerns for a loved one. By providing individualized services and advocacy, PLAN works to maintain and improve quality of life for both the individual and family members. This includes independence, both now and into the future. PLAN works with families so they are prepared when life changes occur, such as new living situations, employment, illnesses and death of family members.


Geographic Area Served:

Individuals who have disabilities, mental illness and/or brain injury who reside in the following counties: Dodge, Fillmore, Goodhue, Houston, Olmsted, Wabasha and Winona.
