If a person with developmental disabilities has a job and job coach when they graduate from a secondary school, can they have this specific situation funded through SRS/DBHS?
Yes, so long as the job coach can and is willing to meet the expectations for employment or licensure for staff working in the DD system and the person has been determined by the responsible CDDO to meet the eligibility requirements for funding by Developmental Disabilities, and funds are available to pay for this service. However, this can only be accomplished effectively if the responsible CDDO has been involved in transition planning so services can be arranged prior to graduation.
