The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) released the Room and Board Bulletin, which was initially released in March 2025. ODP extends gratitude to all stakeholders who participated in the development of the bulletin.

ODP hosted two webinars; both were recorded, and the links are below for viewing.

Room and Board Training for Residential Habilitation and Life Sharing Professionals
The first webinar was targeted towards professionals, Residential Habilitation providers, and Life Sharing providers, in order to provide an explanation of Room and Board polices and regulations, how the polices should be implemented, and an overview of the attachments of the bulletin.

Room and Board Training for Individuals and Families
The second webinar was created for individuals and families. Individuals who receive Residential Habilitation (who live in a group home) or Life Sharing must have a Room and Board contract. This webinar covers the reason for the Room and Board contract, what will be covered within the contract, and an overview of the bulletin, including an explanation of the Room and Board policies and regulations.
