Stancliffe, Roger J.
Journal of Intellectual and Developmental Disability, v27 n2 p117-24 Jun 2002
An analysis of data on residential services for people with mental retardation between 1995-1999 found growth in recipients of Commonwealth/State Disability Agreement-funded residential services; a decline in the proportion of people housed in large residential settings; an increase in those served in group homes; and more rapid growth in outreach/drop-in services.
