Community Services Team

The Community Services Team coordinates the delivery of services and the use of resources for people with developmental disabilities who are eligible for DDA funded services. The team provides consultation and problem solving to ensure that people with developmental disabilities live lives of their own choosing.

The Community Services Team also coordinates the delivery of eligibility services. This involves taking applications from individuals who are interested in applying for services through DDA. Eligibility determinations are made based on criteria found in the Annotated Code of Maryland (COMAR) 10.22.18. These regulations delineate the eligibility and access determination process.
