Innovative Solutions

In 2019 we worked to stay on the forefront of innovation in supporting people with developmental disabilities. We expanded the use of remote support technology, which allows more people to live safely in the community while increasing their independence. We collaborated with other county boards of DD in Southwest Ohio to create a model smart home, allowing families to see the technology in person and understand its potential benefits. We also hosted a technology fair that brought together vendors, providers, SSAs, and families to share ideas and learn about new technology solutions. In the coming years, we will continue to find new ways we can better support people with developmental disabilities.
