Assessments

Overview

Once a person is determined eligible to receive OPWDD services, an assessment is needed to help identify their strengths, needs, and available natural or community supports. OPWDD currently uses three tools when assessing service needs:

  1. Developmental Disabilities Profile (DDP-2)
  2. Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths (CANS)
  3. Coordinated Assessment System (CAS)
