Where Have all the Developmental Centers Gone? The Federal Push for Community-Based Services for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.
Description
scholarly article
Abstract
Across the country, the trend in treating individuals with intellectual and
developmental disabilities has been deinstitutionalization. In recent years,
several states have been working to transition the treatment of their
intellectually and developmentally disabled citizens from state-operated
developmental centers to community-based services.1 In the process,
numerous developmental centers have been closed. While some residents,
parents, advocates and professionals are pleased with this direction, others
are fighting the process.
