TELEPHONE A ADDRESS DIRECTORY
The purpose of this directory is to provide a telephone and address list of the
organizations and agencies that provide services and/or support to people in
Montana with developmental disabilities. The directory is limited in scope by being a
telephone and address directory; it is suggested that you contact the individual
organization for specific information on the services that they offer.
HOW TO USE THIS DIRECTORY
The directory is divided into sections, with each described below. It is hoped that
this layout will allow you to easily locate the information desired. Sections are:
Definition of Developmental Disabilities: The Developmental Disabilities Program
adheres to the State definition of developmental disabilities, as defined in the
l^on'fana Codes Annotated (MCA) 53-20-202, to determine eligibility for
contracted services. (Page 2)
Developmental Disabilities Program Offices: The Developmental Disabilities
Program is one of several agencies within the Department of Public Health and
Human Services. It is directly responsible for providing, or contracting, for
services for people with developmental disabilities. The agency consists of five (5)
regional offices, five (5) satellite offices and the state central office. All offices
of the agency and its employees are listed. (Pages 2-11)
National Resources: A listing of names and phone numbers of commonly accessed
national resources. (Page 12)
Contracted Community-Based Service Programs: Many ^Aon^ana communities
offer an array of services to people with developmental disabilities. This list of
contracted organizations is grouped by region and then alphabetized by town.
(Pages 13-14)
Telephone and Address Section: This section is alphabetized by organization and
lists the address, telephone number, contact person, and e-mail address for the

DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES DEFINITION
Developmental disabilities affect many Montanans. Mental retardation, autism,
cerebral palsy, and epilepsy are some conditions commonly referred to as
developmental disabilities. The definition of "developmental disabilities" as
legislatively defined in section 53-20-202 of the tAoniana Codes Annotated (MCA)
is:
