Our Framework

Charting the LifeCourse

Charting the LifeCourse is a framework that helps people and families of all ages and abilities think about their lives, plan for the future, and move toward a good life. It supports people in creating a vision, exploring options, and identifying the supports they need along the way. More than a set of tools, it is a shared approach that strengthens conversations, builds understanding, and connects people, services, and systems to support meaningful, lasting change.
