Developmental Disabilities Program-Pocatello, Dhw6

The Regional Developmental Disabilities Program provides essential services tailored to individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. These services encompass evaluation, diagnosis, referrals, information dissemination, guardianships, commitments, service coordination, respite care, and family support, along with sharing information about private developmental disability service providers. The Idaho Infant Toddler Program supports children from birth to three years old who exhibit developmental delays, offering therapeutic, educational, and supportive services at no cost to families, and aids in transitioning services to school districts when children turn three. Additionally, the Family and Community Services Adult DD program offers services for adults 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 oversees the Regional Developmental Disabilities Program, which provides services in English and can access interpreters when needed. For intake, individuals should call for an evaluation.
