I have been a special needs advocate, service coordinator, and independent facilitator for my child for more than a dozen years.  I have worn many hats throughout the years, all with the ultimate goal of moving my daughter forward socially, emotionally, behaviorally, and academically.  I am a teacher by trade, and my husband is a professor.

 

We both fully stand behind using Essential Pay Financial Management Service as your FMS when writing a Self Determination Plan for someone you love.  We have experienced horror stories with other FMS agencies.

 

I can say without a shadow of a doubt that deciding to go with Self Determination for my child, and then using Essential Pay as our FMS, has been the best choice we could have made in advancing my daughter across all domains.

 

It is important to have a reliable, honest, and competent Financial Management Service.  Essential Pay FMS has been able to pay all employees and service providers, both consistently and weekly.  Essential Pay has also listened to all our specific needs, and worked hard to help fill gaps where our prior FMS was severely lacking.  We feel there are a lot of challenges facing special needs children and parents, but your FMS should not be one of them.

 

Our life is easier using Essential Pay FMS as our co-employer in my child's Self Determination Plan.
 
Sincerely,
Dr. and Mrs. Lytle
