Perry County Board for the Developmentally Disabled

Who is the PCBDD

The Perry County Board for the Developmentally Disabled (PCBDD) is a local governmental entity responsible for administering county funds for the development and operation of services for individuals with developmental disabilities. The PCBDD is commonly referred to as the Senate Bill 40 or SB40 Board. In June 2008, the members of the SB40 Board decided to change the Board's name to Perry County Board for the Developmentally Disabled as part of an ongoing effort to modernize and continue to develop new services.

A service being provided by PCBDD is Targeted Case Management (TCM), which is more commonly referred to as Service Coordination. In June 2008 the PCBDD entered into a partnership with the Missouri Department of Mental Health, Division of Developmental Disabilities, Sikeston Regional Office whereas PCBDD would provide Service Coordination in Perry County through the organization called County Disability Resources (CDR). The goals of this partnership are:

* To meet the needs of developmentally disabled individuals in Perry County in a timely and efficient manner
by having local access to service coordination

* To maintain a reasonable caseload size for service coordinators in an effort to enhance and monitor services
provided in the county

* To provide quality service coordination to individuals with developmental disabilities

* To develop a new funding resource for services/supports for individuals with a developmental disability residing
in Perry County
