Under what circumstance can a support broker be terminated?

A support broker can be terminated by the participant at any time because this reflects the individual's right to have control and choice over the support services they receive. This flexibility is essential in a participant-directed model, where the individual utilizing the services is empowered to make decisions about their own life and the supports they engage with. It allows participants to change brokers if they feel their needs are not being adequately met or if their preferences change.

While there are circumstances that can lead to termination due to misconduct or contract expiration, the key aspect of support flexibility is that the participant maintains the authority to make that choice. This promotes autonomy and ensures that the relationship between the participant and the support broker is one that meets their preferences and needs effectively.
