Getting into the Mental Retardation System
This training describes how important it is to register with the Office of Developmental Programs. When you are registered, you are counted among the people with disabilities who need services. When the state knows how many people need services, it can plan better to provide the services everyone needs. You will also learn why and when to fill out a PUNS form, which helps plan how soon you need services. We explain the job of a Supports Coordinator so you will know how they can help you.
