Access the Center’s Services
Families of adults and children living at home who are eligible for services from DDS have access to the Center. Our purpose is to support families when they need it most. We provide resources for people with disabilities (PwD) and their families. We help them to reach the highest level of support to positively impact their lives.
Customized Case Management
Each family will meet in an initial face-to-face assessment. We identify a support plan designed to meet each person's needs. Special attention will be paid to the family’s strengths and interests as well as their community and spiritual affiliations/memberships. Services will include but are not limited to:
- Information and referral (I&R)
- Service Navigation

Goal setting, monitoring and outcome assessment will ensure that families will be supported as their needs change.
