Support You Can Count On
Managing your own services doesn’t have to be stressful. At Life Fountain, we make it easier for you to hire staff, track your budget, and stay on top of everything. With clear communication, timely support, and tools built for families, we’re here to make sure nothing slips through the cracks
Thoughtful, Reliable Support
We coordinate with your support team to make sure everything runs smoothly — from setting up your services to managing day-to-day tasks like payroll and budget tracking. Whether you’re new to self-direction or experienced, our team provides clear, dependable assistance to help you stay organized and in control.
Transparent Budget Support
We help you understand your approved service plan, track spending and hours in real time, and stay on top of any changes along the way. Everything is clear, organized, and easy to follow — so you always know where things are at with your budget.
Dedicated to Self-Direction
Our team offers step-by-step guidance for new employers, handles payroll and taxes accurately, and is quick to respond whenever questions come up. We’re here to guide — not just process.
No Pressure, Just Professionalism
You’ll work with a responsive team who listens, explains, and follows through. We strive to provide honest, high-quality support built on respect, integrity, and your right to choose.
Supporting the Life You Choose

Self-directed services are about more than just forms and budgets — they’re about living life on your terms. Whether it’s hiring someone you trust or keeping your care running smoothly, we’re here to support the day-to-day details so you can focus on what matters most.
How We Help You Get Started with Self-Direction
Intake & Onboarding
We start with a quick intake call to learn more about the participant, your support team, and how you want to direct your services. We’ll walk you through the basics of CDCS or CFSS and gather the documents needed to begin.
Setting Up Services
Next, we make sure everything is in place: employer setup, payroll info, required forms, and communication with your support planner, case manager or consultation service. We’ll guide you through each step.
Tools & Training
We introduce you to our timesheet process, budget tracking tools, and how to monitor your spending and hours. Everything is explained in a way that’s easy to understand, and we’re always here to help.
Ongoing Support
Once you’re up and running, we provide continued support. Whether it’s processing payroll, helping with a change in your plan, or answering questions, our team stays in close communication so you’re never left wondering.
