A one-page profile is a single page of information that captures the important information about a person; including what is important to them, what people appreciate about them, and how they want to be supported. One person may have many one-page profiles. For instance, one to introduce them to new caregivers, one for the doctor's office, another for school or other services.
Each profile contains at least 3 areas: What people like and admire about the individual; What is important to the person; and what good support looks like for the person.
