In July 2023, the Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) issued the third edition of the Gold Book: Understanding the Office of Developmental Programs. Designed as a foundational resource, the Gold Book helps families understand and navigate the service delivery and support system.
While service enhancements and technological advancements have evolved over the past three years, ODP's core mission remains unchanged: to help people achieve an everyday life.
ODP is pleased to release the fourth edition of The Gold Book to valued stakeholders. This version of the Gold Book is available in both English and Spanish and can be found online.
ODP wishes to thank the many individuals, self-advocates, families, and professionals who have made this update possible.
