Gettings/Chmura report is available on
line. |
| The Robert Gettings and Max Chmura report on
how to capture Federal funds for community services to individuals with
developmental disabilities is now available. This is a 140 page report outlining
how Illinois can increase its federal funding levels. Interesting reading
for the politically minded. |
On January 15, 2004, the
Illinois Council on Developmental Disabilities voted to invest $234,158 in a
new project, conducted by the National Association of State Directors of
Developmental Disabilities Services, that will carry forward some of the key
recommendations in the report "Financing Services to Individuals with
Developmental Disabilities in the State of Illinois". The new project will
assist the State of Illinois in:
- developing a strategic plan that sets priorities
and long- and short-term goals in supporting people with developmental
disabilities in communities across the state;
- initiates revenue enhancement strategies to capture
federal funds to improve and adequately support community-based services
and manage new and existing resources more effectively and efficiently;
and
- establishes the design and implementation of a
developmental disabilities priority of need database to document current
demand for various types of daytime, residential and support services on
an ongoing basis and to develop policies regulating access to needed
state-funded services and supports.
