DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES COUNCIL OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, INC.
I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
A. A three-year grant of federal Mental Health Act funds supported the Council from
September 1, 1964 to rune 30, 1967. During that period the Council was first a project
of the Contra Costa Council of Community Services and later of the Bay Area Social
Planning Council.
B. When the federal grant was completed, the County Board of Supervisors agreed to
assume responsibility for providing staff and administrative support to the Council.
C. While County support for the Council has been continuous since 1967, the specific
department or agency through which support was provided has changed several times in
response to changing situations. The Council has been housed within the Health
Department, Public Health Division for a number of years.
D. State legislation (Health and Safety Code, Division 25, Chapter 1, Section 38001)
establishes that:
"The complexities of providing services to developmentally disabled persons require the
coordinated services of many state departments and community agencies to insure that
no gaps occur in communication or provision of services..."
"Services should be planned and provided as part of a continuum... To the maximum
extent feasible services should be available throughout the state to prevent the
dislocation of persons with developmental disabilities from their home communities...."
E. Can August 17, 1971 the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors authorized financial
support for the Council for Coordinating Services to the Mentally retarded,whose name
was subsequently changed to Developmental Disabilities Council.
In approving financial support, the Board of Supervisors found "that the council renders
an essential coordinating service in terms of comprehensive planning for public and
private programs."
F. On March 20, 1973 the Board of Supervisors designated the Council as the County
Developmental Disabilities Planning Agency.
DD COUNCIL OF CONTRA COSTA CT'Y.

II. PERTINENT FACTS ABOUT THE DD COUNCIL
A. Purpose, as defined in the bylaws: "The specific and primary purpose shall be: to
identify unmet needs and gaps in existing services for persons who have develop-
mental disabilities and for their families; and to provide the coordinating and
planning mechanism through which the community will take all possible measure
to guarantee the orderly development, effective operation, and necessary continuity
of services."
B. Composition. The Council has a membership of about 500 professionals, parents,
persons with developmental disabilities,and representatives of the general public. About
50% are professionals in public or private agencies serving individuals with
developmental disabilities and 50%are parents and consumers.
The Council has a 21-member Board of Directors, elected by the members each year in
an Annual Meeting. The bylaws require that at least seven board members be
individuals with developmental disabilities or their parents. The majority of the
remaining board members are representatives of the major agencies and organizations
serving this population.
The relatively large number of agency representatives is seen as essential in terms of the
objective of assuring better communication and coordination.
C. Activities of the Council. The Council conducts its activities through its Board of
Directors and a wide.variety of standing committees and ad hoc committees.
In addition to providing the mechanism for coordination,Council activities include:
• Planning
•Development of new services
•Provision of information and referral to families and agencies.
•Consultation and technical assistance
•Training for professionals,paraprofessionals,and parents
•Advocacy
•Review of applications for State and Federal Developmental Disabilities Grants
•Liaison to Area,State and Federal boards and agencies
III. STAFF
A. The Council has a one-half time Director and a one-half time clerk-typist. The Civil
Service designation for the professional(Diana Jorgensen) is: "Executive Assistant to the
Development Disabilities Council." The bylaws of the Council refer to her as
DD COUNCIL OF CONTRA COSTA CTY.
Background and Pertinent Facts
Page 3
"Executive Director." She is most frequently referred to as "County Developmental
Disabilities Coordinator." The latter is the term commonly used to describe staff to the
County DD Council in Alameda County.
B. Role of Professional Staff. The bylaws of the Council provide the following
description(in Article IX):
"'While the Executive Director is employed by Contra Costa County, he or she shall be
administratively responsible to a department designated by the Board of Supervisors and
shall be functionally responsible to the Board of Directors of the Developmental
Disabilities Council."
The wording of Article IX was developed with the assistance of staff of the Social
Service Department when the Council was housed within Social Services.
C. While staff is functionally responsible to the Board of the Council for activities on behalf
of individuals with developmental disabilities, she is responsible to the County for
preparing such reports as are required by the Health Department, the County
Administrator, or others. She attends staff meetings at the Health Department, and has
been available as a member to other county and community committees.

ACCOMPLISHSMENTS OF THE DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES COUNCIL
Presentation to the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors
March 7, 2040
Resource and Program Development
• The Respite Inn—A facility located in Concord which serves families and adults
with developmental disabilities. The Inn enables families to have a much needed
break from their day to day care, and the individual with disabilities to enjoy
experiences away from his (her)home and family. The program has served several
hundred families
• Fred Finch Program for Dually Diagnosed Adolescents—A residential treatment
program to serve adolescents who have both a mental health and developmental
disabilities diagnosis. This program was a collaboration of the Developmental
Disabilities Council, Contra Costa Children's Mental Health, the County Office of
Education, Employment and Human Services Department—Children's Division, and
the Regional Center of the East Bay. It provides services to the most difficult to place
adolescents who formerly were frequently sent away to the State Hospitals, or
became truant, runaways or homeless.
• Community College Transition Program—A new program, which will be in full
operation by the fall of 2000. This program will serve students and young adults who
have graduated from their high school programs and would like an experience on a
college campus where they are able to take classes, recreate, and learn employment
skills along with their non-disabled peers. This program is a collaborative effort
between the DD Council, Los Medanos College, the Department of Rehabilitation,
and the Regional Center.
• ALIVE—A program with sites in Antioch and Concord, which primarily serves
adults with severe physical disabilities who formerly were without program or were
inadequately served. The Council recognized this unmet need a number of years ago
and strongly advocated for money and support to bring this successful program to
fruition.
• Career Training in Disability Services—A training program developed through the
efforts of the Council, Adult Service Providers, Mt. Diablo Education, and the
Department of Employment and Human Services to offer a career pathway to those
coming off of Welfare who had an interest in working in the field of developmental
disabilities.
Programs and Resources which have come into Contra Costa County through the
Council's advocacy efforts:
• The George Miller Center After School Program,which serves from 50 to 60
children and adolescents who need after school activities.
• CAP—(Community Access Program)—a program of Contra Costa ARC, which
serves over 75 severely disabled adults in Richmond, Concord, and Antioch.
• California Autism Foundation---a program which serves over 120 adults with
Autism and behavioral challenges in both a Day and Supported Employment setting
in Nest Contra Costa. In addition CAF runs four residential programs in West
Contra Costa.
• Transition Fairs -a resource fair for students, families and school personnel to learn
about programs and resources which are available to students and their families as
they graduate from the public school system. These fairs have been successfully
operating in Central and West County for the last five years.
Policy Development and Legislative Assistance
• The Council provides information and assistance to both State and Federal
Legislators when called upon.
• Members of the Council visit our State Legislators on a yearly basis to keep
them informed of issues that are vital to our families and people with
Developmental Disabilities.
• The Council has participated in State Rallies in Sacramento to increase rates
and wages for direct care staff who serve our constituency.
• The Council is currently advocating for increased wages for direct care staff who
provide services through the private sector to people with developmental
disabilities and who are currently severely underpaid,which is weakening our
system of services.. We respectfully request our Board of Supervisors to support
our efforts in this area with Governor Gray Davis.
Information and Technical Assistance
• Staff of the Council responded to over 350 information and assistance calls from
families and others during 1999
• The Council sends out monthly announcements and informational mailings to
over 500 families. These mailings keep our constituency apprised of the current
issues of importance in our field.
FACTSHEET: Contra Costa REPORT FUR THE CHILDREN'S COALITION*
I Background:
Developmental Disabilities are defined as mental retardation, cerebral palsy, autism, epilepsy and
other conditions such as brain injury which result in needs similar to those of persons with mental
retardation. The disability must occur before the age of 18 and result in limited ability or inability to
perform major activities in the areas of social/recreational, educational, vocational, and self-help or
living skills. Children with developmental disabilities within the family create a major impact on the
family system and require a multiplicity of services depending upon the child and family's needs.
II Scope of the Problem:
A. Estimated number of persons with developmental disabilities by main type of disability in
Contra Costa County in 1999:
TYPES OF DISABILITY AGES
Mental Retardation 2,203 0-5 - 750
Autism 508 5-22 - 1545
Cerebral Palsy,Epilepsy 462 22-55 - 1440
**High Risk Infants 580 Over 55 - 132
Other 156
Total 3,909
III Trends:
While some causes of developmental disabilities can be determined genetically such as Down
Syndrome and are therefore potentially preventable, the vast majority of causes remain unknown.
As knowledge of known medical causes such as PKU increases, certain types of developmental
disabilities have decreased. However, there are a number of factors which either cause or relate to
poor developmental outcomes and/or developmental disabilities which are currently increasing even
though many are preventable. These include: poor prenatal care leading to low birth weight and
numerous other complications; childhood injuries; environmental deprivation, i.e., hunger and
homelessness, and alcohol and drugs. Maternal alcohol abuse is the leading cause of preventable
mental retardation in infants. In addition, medical technology has increased the number of pre-term
damaged or medically fragile infants being kept alive, leading to a growing number of infants who
remain medically fragile and technologically dependent.
*This report was done specifically for children, birth—22. The Council, however, serves all ages.
**Includes infants and toddlers with a diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder

IV Economic and Human Costs:
A. Impact on the family with a developmentally disabled child may result in:
• major increase in stress on family members
• major economic impact on family
• increase in divorce and break-up of family
• increase in child abuse
E. Impact on child with developmental disability may result in:
• decrease in being able to participate in society
• decrease in self-esteem and ability to make friends
• increase in child abuse(both physical and sexual)
• increase in tobacco and alcohol and drug usage for later adolescents
• increase in mental health problems
C. Economic
• cost of out of home care ranges from$694-$3,598/month
• cost of placement in a state institution--$11,000 per month
• cost to maintain a child in his/her own home with concomitant services varies upon
need but is a fraction of the above costs
VI Recommendation:
• Support continued interagency coordination and collaboration to prevent
unnecessary developmental disabilities and to promote optimum outcomes.
• Support continued and early outreach and support to families through: parent to
parent networking; support and training; and access to information through the
Developmental Disabilities Council, Family Resource Center, and other specific
program efforts.
• Support families through respite, child care, early intervention and the development
of other programs.
• Support maximum integration for the child with disabilities through childcare,
school, recreation and leisure programs and develop additional resources which
provide integration opportunities.

• Develop and support resources to teach child abuse prevention strategies for disabled
children and their families, and support efforts to provide prevention programs in the
areas of mental health and alcohol and drug abuse for disabled children and
adolescents.
Given the proper training and support, persons with developmental disabilities
become responsible and healthy contributing members of their communities and
families remain strong and healthy.
