"If you can see it, you can do it"

A Support Broker has specific knowledge in a wide range of disability support services to assist you and your family. A Support Broker is trained and certified by the Maryland Developmental Disability Administration and must demonstrate core competency related to self-determination, customer directed services, service systems and programs for people with disabilities and human resource management strategies. 

Participants who choose to self-direct their services have the option to hire a Support Broker.  Support brokerage services will be charged to the participant's self-directed budget.  

The Support Broker is hired to act, first and foremost, as a human resource agent of the person, an advocate for the person, and perform duties, as assigned.
