Helping you create meaningful services and supports

Alo Consultation envisions a community of radical, compassionate and brilliant learning that challenges and transforms our existing definitions of inclusion, connection and support within the disability community.

OUR COMMITMENTS:

  • Providing training and consultation for our community which works to expand society’s understanding of supporting people with disabilities. 

  • Continuously reviewing and revising our content to ensure it is current, engaging and exciting.

  • Staying open to constantly learning from people with disabilities.

  • Respecting how people identify and listening to community voices with humility.

  • Collaborating with disabled people to create content that gives a voice to their lived experience.

It’s time to feel connected to Home and Community-Based Services.

CAN YOU RELATE TO ANY OF THESE?

  • You feel like your day-to-day work is person-centered and HCBS aligned, but you can’t get your documentation to match what you’re doing.

  • You understand what HCBS implementation looks like, but your staff still aren’t on board.

  • You understand how HCBS will show up in some people’s lives, but are having a hard time seeing what HCBS will look like for everyone you support.

  • You feel like you’re doing HCBS well, but wonder where to go from here.

  • Create documentation that captures the heart of the work you’re doing.

  • Equip your staff with training that will have them more engaged and inspired.

  • Have a deeper understanding of how you can support all people in your program to live their best lives.

  • Take your services & supports to the next level.
