Hi, I'm Sherri
I'm thrilled you're here.
I’m Sherri Kastner, a dedicated advocate, experienced facilitator, and proud mom to Alyson—a vibrant 17-year-old with Down syndrome whose strength and spirit continue to shape my life and work.
From the moment Alyson entered my life, I committed myself to understanding every resource, law, and support system that could help her thrive. That journey deepened when I became a single parent at age five, navigating the complexities of disability services while building a life centered on inclusion, empowerment, and possibility.
Over the years, I’ve transitioned more than 50 individuals and families into the Self-Determination Program (SDP), helping them unlock the flexibility and autonomy that traditional systems often lack. I specialize in person-centered planning, compliance navigation, and building support teams that reflect each individual’s unique goals and values.
I also maintain strong relationships with a wide network of community partners and service providers who accept SDP funding, making it easier to connect families with trusted resources that truly fit.
Whether you're just beginning your SDP journey or looking for guidance through the transition, I bring both lived experience and professional insight to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Let’s build something that works—for your family, your future, and your vision.
