Programs
The Department of Human Services provides supports to qualified adults and children with developmental disabilities through a combination of case management and services.
 
Developmental disabilities include mental retardation, cerebral palsy, Down’s syndrome, autism and other impairments of the brain that occur during childhood. Some people with developmental disabilities also have significant medical or mental health needs.
 
Adults with developmental disabilities may be eligible for services
ranging from supports to help individuals live in their own homes to 24-hour comprehensive services. Twenty-four-hour services are provided in a variety of settings including group homes, foster homes and the Eastern Oregon Training Center (EOTC).
 
Children with developmental disabilities may be eligible for services ranging from family support to out-of-home placements. Placements can be to proctor care, foster homes or residential settings.
