Results Based Budgeting
Framing the Context
• In 2006, there were approximately 436,000 Albertans with disabilities
of which 31,000 are children
• Majority need support to participate in society and maintain
independence
• Nature and level of support varies widely (mild, moderate, severe)
• Types of supports are influenced by living environment and connection
to family and community
23
Results Based Budgeting
Framing the Context
• The Government of Alberta funds disability supports which are most
often delivered by community agencies
• Supports for disabilities includes personal supports, life skills training,
caregiver supports and information
• Alberta’s disability policies, supports and services reflected common
beliefs, best practices and leading delivery models of the day
• The philosophy of meeting the needs of persons with disabilities has
changed significantly over time
24
Results Based Budgeting
Framing the Context
• The current system is comprised of discrete programs that
were developed over time to meet different needs
• This results in a disproportion of supports being received by
some clients vs. others
• Significant improvements to the efficiency and effectiveness
of the PDD program have already been made
• Work is underway to introduce performance-based contracts
with CBOs and implement common services access for social
based programs
• This review will leverage current work and consider linkages
with programs not part of this review to create a cohesive
disabilities system

Results Based Budgeting
Moving to the Desired State – Strategic Shifts
From Here
To There
Programs are assessed separately
Funding is linked to the
based on measurement of what
achievement of
activities are performed and what
outcomes
services are delivered. Funding is
generally not linked to demonstration
of outcomes.
Measure the effectiveness as well as the
efficiency of the delivery of supports for
disabilities against a common set of system
outcomes. Link support funding to the
achievement of outcomes.
Each program determines access to
supports separately based on a
narrow range of eligible diagnoses or
deficits.
Access to supports is
based on needs and
strengths of the
individual and not
diagnosis
Determine access to supports through a holistic
assessment of support needs and strengths in
different areas of a person’s life as well as the
natural supports a person has.
Individuals and their families are
placed or served within programs in
which they are eligible; they are
provided few options about available
services within these programs.
Individuals share mutual
responsibility and
accountability for
decisions regarding their
supports
People with disabilities and their families
participate in the planning process, make
meaningful decisions about the supports they
receive, and share responsibility for achieving
positive results.
Most programs, providers and
community partners deliver services
under separate mandates and
contracts, producing a disjointed
service experience for some clients.
Services and supports for
disabilities are integrated
in the broader system
Accelerate the shift towards a fully integrated
and sustainable service delivery model that
provides clients with a consistent, high-quality
experience that respects their full potential and
dignity.

PDD Current State
• A complex governance model (Community Boards /
Ministry relationships)
• Increasing caseloads – especially extraordinarily
complex cases – are driving program growth that is
unsustainable (see following chart)
• Difficulty transitioning individuals from FSCD to
adult programs
• Many adults with disabilities (FASD, Autism, Brain
Injury) who do not meet PDD’s eligibility criteria for
IQ, but have unmet support needs
30
PDD Current State
• A complex service delivery system focused on
activities rather than outcomes - individuals leading
meaningful lives in communities
• Front-line staff wages are low, resulting high staff
turnover, and leading to negative impacts on clients
and negative impacts on staff
INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES, GUARDIANS, SERVICE PROVIDERS AND
STAFF HAVE TOLD PDD, “IT IS TIME TO DO BETTER.”
31
Impetus for Change
• Several studies and consultations were undertaken,
and Ministerial direction was given to undertake the
PDD Change Initiatives; consultations included:
• What We Heard: Increasing Flexibility for Families
• What We Heard: Increasing Flexibility in the Contracting
Process
• KPMG Report to the Minister: Administrative Review of the
Persons with Developmental Disabilities (PDD) Program
(September 2010)
• MLA Genia Leskiw’s Contracting Consultations
32
Results-based Budgeting
Vision for Future System of Disability Supports
One disability program
• Albertans with disabilities and their families are actively involved and
supported by one Disability Program across their lifespan that respects the
uniqueness of each individual.
• Needs and strengths guide the provision of support
• Albertans with disabilities and the Disability Program work together to make
certain their functional needs and strengths are well understood and are the
foundation of supports. This means that more Albertans with disabilities
receive support, and that support is more equitably and appropriately
distributed.
Services are consistent and accessible
• Disability supports are readily accessible to any Albertan, in-person, by phone
(through a contact centre) or through the web. Common processes across the
province ensure consistency, and support the provision of the right services at
the right time.
33
Results-based Budgeting
The Future System of Disability Supports
Services achieve results
 Disability supports are structured and funded to help Albertans with
disabilities to meet their goals for enhanced health and wellbeing,
safe and stable housing, community inclusion and independence –
ultimately allowing them to achieve their full potential.
Navigation is simple
 Disability supports are well-integrated with the network of
government and community supports required for holistic support.
Common points of access, client coordinator positions and enhanced
awareness of disabilities all facilitate improved navigation.
Services are integrated with other systems and the community.
 The Disability Program promotes awareness of Albertans with
disabilities to include them in their communities and works to
address system and community barriers that impede outcomes from
being achieved.
