This manual was designed primarily for use by individuals with
developmental disabilities and related conditions. We hope that it is also useful for
consumers, service coordinators and providers who directly assist families and
individuals with developmental disabilities.
The main focus of this manual is to provide easy-to-read information concerning available resources, and to provide immediate contact information for the purpose of applying for resources and/or locating additional information. You may notice that many of the resources listed in this manual are directly linked to regional Comprehensive Care Centers. Often, (and especially with children under the age of three and adults) a local Comprehensive Care Center will be the point of entry for an individual to gain access to many programs and services. For school-aged children and adolescents, the most direct route to services is often through the local public school system. The list of resources provided within this manual is not meant to be exhaustive. The purpose is to focus on resources available to individuals with developmental disabilities, though other related resources have been included. If you are aware of additional resources that are available and that should be included, we invite you to contact us regarding future editions of this manual.
