NJCDD Releases New Enhanced Family Support Crisis Handbook
The purpose of the expanded version of the NJCDD's Handbook is to empower individuals with disabilities and their family and professional caregivers. The Handbook provides information to more effectively advocate for persons with complex severe behavioral health conditions (which we formerly referred to as “dual diagnosis”) for treatments, supports, services and the conditions that promote mental wellness.
Available in Spanish and English.

New Jersey’s Special Needs Registry for Disasters
Are You On the List?
“Register Ready – New Jersey’s Special Needs Registry for Disasters” allows New Jersey residents with disabilities or access and functional needs and their families, friends, caregivers and associates an opportunity to provide information to emergency response agencies so emergency responders can better plan to serve them in a disaster or other emergency.
The information collected is confidential and will not be available to the public. The information will be held securely and only used for emergency response and planning. |
