Developmental Disabilities of Clark County is a government-administered service organization based in Springfield, Ohio. Founded in the early 1960s, it provides information, support, and services to people with developmental disabilities, including intellectual disability, autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and traumatic brain injury. The organization assists more than 1,100 Clark County residents across their lifetimes by coordinating funding, safeguards, and connections with partner agencies. A substantial portion of its work takes place in community settings, aligning services with how individuals live, work, and participate as everyday members of the community. In addition to direct services, the agency offers training for partner agencies to achieve state certification, provides job-skill training to help adults with developmental disabilities gain employment and independence, and arranges housing and independent living options to address future needs for those who may require ongoing support.
