Disability Rights California (DRC) is excited to share this report in collaboration with the UCLA Tarjan Center, the State Council for Developmental Disabilities, and the UC Davis and USC UCEDDs. This program evaluation analyzes the experiences of Californians with I/DD and their family members with the Self-Determination Program. The Self-Determination Program is California’s self-directed option for home- and community-based services (HCBS) for people with I/DD.

Welcome to the first in a series of posts about recent changes to the law, and how they could impact your ability to access supports and services under the Lanterman Act.

This blog post is part of a series about housing. Many Californians face barriers to housing, such as the high cost of rent and the lack of physically accessible units. We are interviewing people with intellectual and developmental disabilities about their experiences, preferences, and aspirations around housing. Through this series, you can see both challenges specific to people with I/DD and broader challenges related to housing that people with I/DD experience, too.
