What is the responsibility of the Division of Developmental Disabilities (DD)?
The Division of DD is one of three Divisions within the Department of Mental Health. There are several state-operated residential facilities for adults and children who have developmental disabilities. Access to services is obtained through regional offices located throughout the state.

The primary responsibility of regional offices is to provide funding for services and assistance to families who have young children with developmental disabilities, as well as adult persons with developmental disabilities.
