An important part of choosing between IRIS and Family Care is outlining what your needs are. Here are some questions to help with the thought process.
Do I need help managing finances? If yes, consider Family Care
Do I want to pick and find my caregivers myself? If yes, consider IRIS
I will have a hard enough time managing school work. Don't put too much thought into this, but if you immediately thought YES, consider Family Care
I'm the best advocate for myself. If true, consider IRIS
I don't want to convince people what I need. You will have to do this, but less so with IRIS
I've been here, but I don't know if I can find caregivers. If yes, consider Family Care
I want a team to support me with this transition. If yes, consider Family Care
