This 3-year plan for development of services for persons with developmental disabilities in Minnesota covers the period from October 1, 1991 to September 30, 1994. Such a plan is required under the federal Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 1990. The plan's first section describes and defines developmental disabilities; cites the number of people with developmental disabilities in Minnesota; examines how disabilities affect the lives of individuals, families, and the community where they live; and notes the intended impact of federal assistance through the Developmental Disabilities Basic State Grant Program. Section 2 describes the mission, mandate, and membership of the Governor's Planning Council on Developmental Disabilities. Section 3 discusses the environment in which programs operate; the scope of services for people with developmental disabilities; and the state departments and agencies that affect them, such as the Minnesota Department of Jobs and Training and the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency. The fourth and fifth sections present the plan review process, state plan revisions, and assurances of compliance with federal legislation. (JDD)
