When you first learn that you or your loved one will be receiving Passport Funding, there may be many questions that you ask yourself, such as:

  • Where do I start?
  • What expenses are allowed?
  • How do I want to spend my funds?
  • What will get me the biggest “bang” for my buck?

For answers to these questions and more, we encourage you to visit this website, which provides a good overview of Passport and tips on how to use these dollars:

At PFPF, we have met many people and heard many stories about the differences support workers can make in people’s lives. We encourage families to use their passport/direct funds to provide their sons and daughters with a support worker.

Our families’ sons and daughters have benefitted greatly by using support workers to assist them to have their own small business, be involved in volunteer work in the community, and even supported by their worker to live in their own place. Read some short slides on our Stories page too.
