Developmental Disabilities Program-Boise, Dhw4

The Regional Developmental Disabilities Program provides a range of services tailored to assist individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. These services encompass evaluation, diagnosis, referral, information, guardianships and commitments, service coordination, respite care, and family support. Additionally, it offers therapy for children from birth to 3 years, including developmental, speech, psychological, physical, and occupational therapies, and shares information about private providers of developmental disability services. The Idaho Infant Toddler Program delivers early intervention services aimed at helping families support their infants and toddlers (birth to 36 months) in achieving their fullest potential. These early intervention services address both the developmental needs of the child and the family's needs to foster the child's growth. The program is supported by multidisciplinary teams of therapists skilled in aiding children to communicate, move, think, eat, and engage more fully in their family's daily routines. The Family and Community Services Adult DD program offers services to individuals with developmental disabilities, including court-ordered guardianship, commitment and competency evaluations, placement coordination to the Idaho State School and Hospital, non-Medicaid crisis intervention, service coordination, and community resource development. The Division of Family and Community Services administers the Regional Developmental Disabilities Program. Services are available in English, with interpreter services accessible upon request. For intake, individuals should call for an evaluation.
