Not every regional center offers every service. Regional centers are private non-profit agencies. Each one has its own Purchase of Service (POS) policies to help meet the needs of the people and communities they serve. That is why policies can be different at each regional center. POS policies explain what services a regional center may pay for, who can get services, and when services can be approved. You can visit your own regional center’s website to find its POS policies and service guidelines. ## Docs Tags - [SDP Directive](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/sdp-directive/) - [Regional Center Directive](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/regional-center-directive/) - [LVAC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/lvac/) - [FMS](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/fms/) - [SDP Providers](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/sdp-providers/) - [Independent Facilitator](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/independent-facilitator/) - [Participant Directed Services](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/participant-directed-services/) - [HCBS Final Rule](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/hcbs-final-rule/) - [Traditional Services](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/traditional-services/) - [Billing](https://completeguidetosdp.org/docs-tag/billing/) ## Tags - [LVAC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/lvac/) - [NLACRC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/nlacrc/) - [SARC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/sarc/) - [WRC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/wrc/) - [SCDD](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/scdd/) - [SSDAC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/ssdac/) - [FDLRC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/fdlrc/) - [ELARC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/elarc/) - [IRC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/irc/) - [ACRC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/alta/) - [RCOC](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/rcoc/) - [Support Group](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/support-group/) - [Independent Facilitator](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/independent-facilitator/) - [Department of Developmental Services](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/department-of-developmental-services/) - [Resource Fair](https://completeguidetosdp.org/events/tag/resource-fair/)
