A Fiscal Management Service (FMS) is a service that helps you to manage your budgets under the Self Determination program. The FMS representative will help make sure that you have enough money to last throughout the year.
The FMS is a required part of the Self Determination program by California law. The FMS representative must be part of an agency that contracts with the regional center for services. The FMS representative cannot be a parent or family member of the participant on the Self Determination program.
