Person-centered Planning

ENGAGE works with students to develop a Person-Centered Plan (PCP) for achieving their academic, employment, and personal goals. The PCP is then used to guide weekly one-on-one meetings, check-ins, group activities, and referrals to UNT and community partners.

Weekly Meetings

Students meet weekly with their ENGAGE coordinator to take steps towards reaching their PCP goals. Students also have a 2nd weekly “check-in” with an ENGAGE Graduate Student Assistant for additional support as needed. These meetings can include, but are not limited to: Student mentoring and case management, an open forum for students to discuss personal and academic issues, self-advocacy support and training, collaborative problem solving, vocational supports/training, and referrals to UNT and community resources.
