Developmental Disability

• Local Mental Health Services
Mental health services in Michigan are coordinated through local Community Mental Health Services Programs (CMHSPs).

• Self-Determination Initiative
Self-determination incorporates a set of concepts and values which underscore a core belief that people who require support from the public mental health system as a result of a disability should be able to define what they need in terms of the life they seek, should have access to meaningful choices, and control over their lives.
