CHASING DREAMS SUPPORT PLANNING

Our Story

We have been friends for what seems like forever! It all started in 2016 when Taylor began her internship at the same place Abby was working. Fate brought us together when Taylor was assigned as Abby’s’ direct intern.



WE CONNECTED INSTANTLY

We worked great together as we had similar habits and values. Taylor’s internship quickly became her full-time job and we worked together at this location for 2 years. In these two years, our friendship grew tremendously. We became very close with each other and each other’s families.

Our Journey didn't end there...

We ended up going our separate ways, career-wise, but we stayed close as we connected weekly for family dinners and made sure we dedicated time to each other. We knew, we wanted to work together again someday. In 2022, we had the idea of starting a business together, so we could work side by side once again. Both being social workers, having a passion for helping people, and with our background experience, we thought support planning would be the best fit for us and our future clients. Our journey has begun and we have never been more excited!

Thanks for reading our story and please check out our individual bios too! We would love to work with you and/or your family member as a support planner. If one of our stories directly speaks to you and you want to work specifically with one of us, let us know and we can accommodate that.

    If you’re even slightly overwhelmed with the process of getting your child the support they need, I strongly recommend reaching out to the team at Chasing Dreams! They’ve been so helpful with both of my kiddos’ grant/waivers, and it takes a LOT of the pressure off an already overwhelming and exhausting process.

  • Starlet Robinson
    The care & customer service is amazing. I would recommend using Chasing Dreams for support planning. I got immediate response & Abby Dreger (my worker) got to work on my plan right away & helped me through this process as I was unfamiliar with how to even start. Always answered my questions quickly & throughly. I appreciate this service it helps put me at ease & has made things move along smoothly. Thank you Chasing Dreams.

    Chasing Dreams Support planners are informative, caring, and supportive. I researched this company with hopes and prayers that they would meet all the needs to support my daughter with budgeting her Cadi waiver. Abby is a professional and she handles business in a timely manner , I would recommend her to any family that is seeking a professional support planner.

  • Diedra Kallin
    Wonderful experience. It was such a long road after my dad was injured dealing with all hospital stays, skilled nursing, almost losing him, applying for MA. Had no help along the way and when I talked with Taylor and her co-worker, they explained how they would help us and I was near tears - they were and still are my Angels that we continue to lean on and they do everything they can to help us work our way through the CDCS program. Thank you - you're truly Angels that have blessed us on this incredibly difficult journey we've endured and we have come out the other side still standing.

  • Justine Atkinson
    Abby & Taylor are absolutely incredible! They made our process with them completely seamless. Super easy to work with and very sweet & caring. Extremely knowledgeable about the CDCS/support planning process. Everything worked out smoothly, they kept things on track and were available whenever for any additional questions or assistance. They were able to provide remote visits which makes life so much easier as life can be so busy so that was a huge plus for us that they could offer that! Would highly recommend these gals!

  • Jake & Heather
    It can be easy to feel completely overwhelmed trying to navigate assessments, waivers, support plans, and more. We reached out to Chasing Dreams and everything started falling into place. Taylor was incredibly patient and attentive, helping us find clarity amid the confusion. She put together a CDCS plan that even our county's CDCS specialist was impressed by. The entire process felt comfortable, never rushed, and carefully crafted to our needs and goals. We highly recommend Taylor and Chasing Dreams!

  • Catherine Bernhardt
    Chasing Dreams is an amazing partner to help assist with your CDCS planning needs! I was new to this process and Taylor was amazing! She was quick and thoughtful throughout the process. She and the team will be my go to for all of my future planning needs for my daughter. I can’t say enough good things about Taylor!!

  • Heidi Magnuson
    If you’re reading this and frantic to find a support planner, look no further. When I was looking for a support planner, I was given a list 6 pages long and I was completely overwhelmed. Abby was the first planner I talked to and I immediately felt at ease. With all the hoops we had to jump through, I don’t know how I would have gotten through the waiver obstacle course without her. Highly, highly recommend Chasing Dreams.

  • Doris Obeng-Armah
    I chose Chasing Dreams from reading reviews and had a sense of "I want to work with them". I'm so glad I trusted my intuition. Abby was amazing to work with. Prior to speaking with her, I was overwhelmed but she was very reassuring and confident and gave me so much support. She made the whole experience seamless and we got the plan completed and approved in a very short period of time. Thank you for making my Dream a Reality:)

  • Linda Martin
    I was unaware that support planning was even an option for our family when we needed some extra help navigating everything for my husband's Lewy Body Disease diagnosis and plan of care. The paperwork, Medicare guidelines, and numerous questions were overwhelming for our family. It has been exhausting trying to understand everything, sign the necessary papers to coordinate with deadlines, as well as communicate with my husband's social worker. Taylor brought much clarity to the whole process by explaining what we needed to know (and in ways we could understand). She made the necessary phone calls and contacts, kept in constant communication with my daughter and me, and made sure she got the signatures she needed to meet all deadlines. Her skills and expertise were invaluable to us, and I am so glad we pursued her help and guidance throughout our own personal journey. Thank you, Taylor, for being such a tremendous help to us. We couldn't have done it without you! You were phenomenal!

  • Jean Huss
    Our family has worked with Taylor at Chasing Dreams Support Planning for our son's CDCS plan for the past two years. Taylor has made the process so less confusing for our family and has offered valuable insight into the ongoing changes. I would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of support planning.

  • Dani Brown
    Everything has been working out great! I tried to contact a few other support planners & nobody bothered to respond. I was so happy to hear back very quickly from Abby! She has been very responsive & proactive. Setting up our plan went pretty quick & easy. I am new to all of this, for my teen child, and she has made it much easier. I have had several issues with our FMS & we have a new CM that we have never even met. So it is nice to have Abby be a constant & be a point of contact when I need help. I highly recommend Chasing Dreams & I am thankful for them!
