About the Program

The Developmental Disabilities Resource Connection (DDRC) program assists individuals with developmental disabilities and their families wishing to access services through the State of Alaska Developmental Disabilities Programs. The DDRC Program is often the “point of entry” for accessing State services, such as Medicaid waivers.

Many disability services have specific eligibility criteria and require an application to be submitted. Your DDRC Navigator can assist you with application submissions, understanding eligibility requirements and exploring options for care and support.
