Revised Code of Washington - RCW Title 71A Developmental Disabilities - Section 71A.10.011 Intent -- 1995 c 383

§ 71A.10.011. Intent -- 1995 c 383

The legislature recognizes that the emphasis of state developmental disability services is shifting from institutional-based care to community services in an effort to increase the personal and social independence and fulfillment of persons with developmental disabilities, consistent with state policy as expressed in RCW 71A.10.015. It is the intent of the legislature that financial savings achieved from program reductions and efficiencies within the developmental disabilities program shall be redirected within the program to provide public or private community-based services for eligible persons who would otherwise be unidentified or unserved.
