The State of the States in Developmental Disabilities

This project is based on the Third National Study of Public Spending for Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities. The first section is an overview of the study itself, including methodology, results, and analysis. The second part consists of state profiles, while the third deals with supplementary financial and programmatic data. The overall objective of the project is to determine how and why exemplary service systems have evolved in certain settings and not in others. The study addresses this goal from a fiscal stand point.
