Map and Resource Directory

Welcome to OMRDD’s Resource Directory. This section of our website will give you a Statewide listing of not-for-profit voluntary agencies by region according to OMRDD’s Developmental Disabilities Services Offices (DDSO) which are responsible for the organization and certification of those services within their regions and will provide you with a list of each agency’s services. Here you will also find a Geographic Information System locater (Map the Agencies) that will enable you to see exactly where the main office of a provider in which you have interest is located. See the listing below for a full description of what can be accessed through this section of our website.

The NYS OMRDD works very closely with not-for-profit voluntary providers to assure that services are developed to meet the needs of individuals with developmental disabilities and their families throughout New York State. Through this ongoing and successful public/private partnership, OMRDD has developed a national reputation for having high quality and cost-efficient services that really meet the needs of the individuals who are receiving them.

Although the voluntary agencies listed here are authorized by OMRDD, they are private providers, and a listing in this publication is not to be interpreted as an endorsement of the agency or the services it renders.

Questions about resources listed in the Directory may be directed to the DDSO nearest you.
