MONITORING AND TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE
REVIEW SYSTEM (MTARS) GUIDELINES

Overview of the MTARS

The Administration on Developmental Disabilities (ADD) uses the Monitoring and Technical Assistance Review System (MTARS) to evaluate three of its grant programs:

1. State Developmental Disabilities Councils (Councils)
2. State Protection and Advocacy Systems (P&As)
3. University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Research and Services (UCEDDs).

Under the terms of the DD Act, ADD must conduct oversight to determine the extent to which grantees are helping individuals with developmental disabilities and their families have more opportunities to live, participate, and contribute to community life.
