DD PIC Makes Recommendations on Resource Allocation
|
This document is based on information gathered by members of the DD-PIC including two presentations on allocating resources in state DD systems. Nancy Thaler, Executive Director of National Association of State Developmental Disabilities Directors (NASDDDS) and Dr. Marc Tasse, AssociateProfessor/Director of Florida Center for Inclusive Communities – UCEDD at the University of South Florida each provided extensive information on the topic. The DD-PIC supports the concept of resource allocation and recommends that the state consider this information as it makes decisions about implementation of a resource allocation model in NC for people with ID/DD.
