DDS’s Provider Directory launched on October 29, 2024.  Select service providers are invited to create an account and confirm their record(s) within 45 days of receiving their invitation to the Directory.  For providers that are eligible for QIP incentives, the Provider Directory is the only way to attain the up to 10 percent quality incentive portion of the reimbursement rate.

Support, including on-demand training materials, is available at www.dds.ca.gov/initiatives/provider-directory/.

There’s a new time-saver for families! Find essential Early Childhood and Transition resources now in one place: dds.ca.gov/childhood.

March 17, 2023 was the day the Home & Community-Based Services (HCBS) Final Rule took effect. HCBS are types of person-centered care delivered in the home and community. HCBS are often designed to enable people to stay in their homes, rather than moving to a facility for care. To celebrate the Final Rule and rights defined for individuals who receive services, we are excited to share this 10-part animation series to support understanding of the HCBS Final Rule (link below). A big thank you to Tri-Counties Regional Center who envisioned this project, with the support of all 21 regional centers. Please visit the following link to access the series: https://bit.ly/hcbsday

The Self-Determination Program in California is exciting because it provides individuals and families receiving Regional Center services the opportunity to spend their budget in alternate ways, including services not available through the traditional service delivery system, with providers who may not be “vendored,” or have a contract with the Regional Center, and in the amounts they choose.

If you are interested in learning more about Self-Determination, or have any questions or concerns, we invite you to be part of our community! You can:

1) Request your Service Coordinator refer you for free Self-Determination coaching services available through Education Spectrum, courtesy of funding through NBRC’s Local Advisory Committee (SDAC). You can also self-refer here.
2) Contact NBRC’s bilingual Self-Determination team at sdp@nbrc.net
3) Attend an online orientation, which is required before transitioning to the program. These orientations are available at https://scdd.ca.gov/sdp-orientation/ in multiple languages.
5) Attend the bi-monthly Self-Determination Advisory Committee.
6) Visit https://www.facebook.com/groups/CA.SDP.Forum to join a Statewide Self-Determination Program Forum hosted by the State Council on Developmental Disabilities (SCDD).
7) Visit https://www.thecasdpnetwork.org to find providers.
