Should the CDDO or designated Community Service Provider participate in transition planning for persons with developmental disabilities who are graduating from school?
If parents believe their son or daughter will probably need services funded through DBHS/CSS, they should take the following steps: 1. Request the CDDO responsible for their area to determine whether or not their child meets the eligibility requirements for funding by Developmental Disabilities; 2. If their child is determined to meet the eligibility requirements, ask for assistance in finding a case manager who can participate in transition planning sessions with the school; and 3. Request the school notify and invite the case manager to all transition planning sessions which occur at age sixteen years or older.
