North Dakota Developmental Disabilities Policy Manual
~~“The purpose of this manual is to establish policies and procedures for implementing the provisions of Federal and State Regulating Authority for Developmental Disabilities Services in the State of North Dakota.
Developmental Disabilities provides support and training to individuals and families in order to maximize community and family inclusion, independence, and self-sufficiency; to prevent institutionalization; and to enable institutionalized individuals to return to the community. To achieve this goal, Developmental Disabilities contracts with private, nonprofit and for-profit organizations to provide an array of residential services, day services, and family support services. “
