Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD)
DBHDD's Family Support Services is a Georgia state program that helps people with developmental disabilities (like autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, or intellectual disability) keep living at home with their families. It does not give a set list of benefits — instead a Family Support Coordinator works with each family to find what they need, such as respite care, family education, recreation, special medical equipment, and help getting other benefits. You apply through a local community-based provider in your county.
