Contact Your County Board of DD
Your county board of developmental disabilities is your community's primary resource for DD supports and information. Your board can provide more information about available supports, determine eligibility for services, coordinate services for people with developmental disabilities and more.
Contact your local board of DD to learn more about available services and supports. Click your county on the map to the right to look up information for your county's board of DD.
Basic information (including main telephone numbers, addresses, and MUI/emergency reporting hotlines) is provided for each board. OACB members looking for detailed contact information can find it in MemberConnect.

 ProviderGuidePlus: Find a Local DD Service Provider
ProviderGuidePlus is an online tool that allows people with developmental disabilities and their families to find, compare, and rate DD service providers. The free service is available statewide.
ProviderGuidePlus functions similarly to Angie's List and other popular consumer rating websites. Reviews are submitted anonymously. To find or rate a provider, visit www.providerguideplus.com.
The tool is the result of three years of collaborative effort between OACB, the Ohio Provider Resource Association, the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities, and parent and family groups.
