The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) has shared communication ODPANN 25-028 to clarify how the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation’s (OVR) Memo on March 15, 2025, regarding the Order of Selection and the OVR waiting list for services impacts referral requirements and access to ODP-funded employment services.

ODP and OVR will host a Virtual Office Hour on Monday, April 14, 2025, at 11:00 am. Interested parties are invited to join staff from both ODP and OVR to learn more about how the waitlist for OVR’s services may impact ODP’s employment services. There will be a short presentation with most of the time reserved for participants to ask questions to OVR and ODP staff. The link to register for the Virtual Office Hour may be found at the Virtual Office Hour registration page.

Please review the announcement for registration information and additional details.

5:30 pm – 7:00 pm 

The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) invites individuals with intellectual disabilities and/or autism and their families to join in a virtual conversation with ODP’s policy team. The conversation will cover basics about the services ODP offers, and it is an opportunity for individuals and families to ask questions. These meetings are informal, meaning the conversation will not be recorded, and rules will be set before the meeting starts to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to provide questions and comments. The meeting will be held through Microsoft Teams.

What Will Be Covered?

This next meeting will consist of policy members from ODP providing an overview of two topics: the philosophy and framework used by ODP, which is called Everyday Lives, as well as what a Supports Coordinator is and what their role is.

Please Note:

This webinar/conversation is not for professionals; it is specifically for individuals, caregivers, and families and/or legal guardians. This webinar/conversation is geared towards individuals and families who are just beginning to learn about ODP or for those who want a basic understanding of the topic being discussed.

*ODP is asking and encouraging Supports Coordinators, Administrative Entities, Individual and Family Organizations, etc. to share this invitation with any individual and family they support.

In 2021, the Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) disseminated The Best Practice Standards for Behavioral Support. They also hosted several Virtual Office Hours (VOHs) for Behavioral Specialists, Administrative Entities (AEs), Supports Coordination Organizations, and Residential Providers. As a follow-up to these efforts, they have created a hub on MyODP that captures all things Behavioral Supports-related to the standards. Check it out and visit often, as ODP intends to update, and they have some additional resources in the works to upload in the future, including FAQs and Sample BSPs.

ODP intends to host additional sessions with providers and AEs to talk about the standards, but in the meantime, they are interested in hearing from those of you who have reviewed the standards or attended a VOH in the past year. Please take a moment to complete this brief survey.

If you have any questions or comments about this communication, feel free to email ODP directly.
