Description

Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) are at high risk for co-occurring mental and behavioral health conditions, including emotional, internalizing, and externalizing behavior concerns. Mental and behavioral health concerns in individuals with I/DD can be lifelong and pervasive without intervention.

Participants in this training will receive feasible tools and resources to help families navigate mental and behavioral health services.
