IRIS (Include, Respect, I Self-direct) is a new approach for serving people with disabilities.  This program allows the person, and anyone else he or she chooses to include, to determine what services to purchase with his/her waiver funds and from whom.  This means the person is able to self-direct and have complete control over his or her own services.

While the person (along with his/her guardian) has control over services, there are also supports available to people who would like assistance with coordinating and managing their services.  Because of this, the program is just as easy to access and utilize as other options for funding.

This program is a true person-centered approach to services.  The person decides what outcomes he/she would like to see, and the provider works to achieve those outcomes.

Riverfront embodies this philosophy - providing real, quality choices to people with disabilities for more than three decades.

Managed care, another new approach for serving people with disabilities, brings both challenges and opportunities.  The opportunity is to increase quality of life for people with disabilities.  The challenge is to do so with continuous quality improvements while maintaining affordability.

Managed care programs were established to give people real choice in the kinds of services and supports they tap to meet their individual needs. It's about improving access to services in order to produce better outcomes.  And it's about creating a cost-effective system for the future.

Riverfront embodies these missions - providing real, quality choices to people with disabilities for more than three decades.
