The flurry of DDD updates -- April 2013

DDD's main site

http://nj.gov/humanservices/ddd/programs/supportsprgm.html

has seen a flurry of changes this month, some of which have disappeared from this page and some which remain (at least as of 5/1/2013). There are probably other presentations floating around and the ones I've included here have a lot of overlap with each other. 

On 4/9 (and other dates) there was a webinar on "New Vision for Support Across the Life Course"

On 4/15 there was a webinar on “Initial Phase of Support Coordination for the DDD Supports Program.”

from DDD's page:

On Monday, April 15, 2013, the Division of Developmental Disabilities (Division) held a webinar for providers interested in providing support coordination entitled, “Initial Phase of Support Coordination for the DDD Supports Program.” The PowerPoint presentation for this webinar can be found below under Presentations: PowerPoints, YouTube. We have also created a document of questions that came up as a result of the webinar and the webinar can be found under Provider Information.
