Developmental Services

Mission

The mission of Developmental Services is to maximize chosen outcomes for persons with developmental disabilities through service coordination and implementation in the most integrated community settings.

Support Coordination

Support Coordination assists individuals and their families with accessing appropriate services based on their needs and preferences. We provide Support Coordination to adults and children. We promote maximum independence of Arlington County residents with developmental disabilities by helping individuals and their families access services that enable them to have choices within their lives, at home and in the community.
