PASS is an integrated program that includes intermittent, limited or extensive one-to-one personal assistance services needed to support, improve or maintain functioning in age-appropriate natural settings. These specialized consumer-directed services are available to children who have been diagnosed with certain physical, developmental, behavioral or emotional conditions, and are living at home. Services are designed to assist children and youth with attaining goals and identifying objectives within three areas: activities of daily living, making self-preserving decisions and participating in social roles and social settings. The child’s family assumes the lead role in directing support services for their child.
