What should individuals do if they are uncertain about qualifying for services in the ID system?

When individuals are uncertain about qualifying for services in the Intellectual Disability (ID) system, contacting the county office for assistance is the most appropriate action. The county office is typically responsible for managing and coordinating services for individuals with intellectual disabilities. They have up-to-date information on eligibility criteria, the application process, and available services. This direct line to the county office ensures that individuals receive accurate and relevant guidance tailored to their specific circumstances.

Other options may provide some level of support but do not offer the same direct access to the essential information needed for navigating the ID system. While reaching out to local authorities could yield some help, these authorities may not specialize in ID services. Visiting a service center may provide resources, but without specific guidance on eligibility, it might not fully address an individual's questions. Consulting with family members might offer emotional support but will likely not provide the expertise needed regarding qualifying for services.
