Delaware County Human Services Department

The Office of Mental Retardation (OMR) provides a variety of services for persons with mental retardation, including many purchased from community organizations. All services are planned, coordinated and monitored by OMR and promote optimal independence for individuals and their families.
Case management is provided to everyone who is registered, and includes needs assessment and service planning, coordination and monitoring. Specialized mental retardation services can include Family Support Services, in-home services, adult day services, supportive employment, life skills training, and residential services. Availability is contingent upon eligibility and funding. General community and family resources are utilized as much as possible.
Persons eligible for services will have been tested before the age of 22, determined to have an I. Q. under 70, and have functional limitations.
