partnership to establish a primary care center that offers a
full range of services to meet the health care needs of people
with developmental disabilities throughout the region. This

Initiatives Program.
The full service primary care
center, administered by The Arc, Ocean County Chapter,
provides a staff with expertise in the needs of people with
mental retardation, autism, down syndrome, cerebral palsy,
spina bifida and other developmental disabilities.
Services include medical, psychiatry, podiatry
and neurology; treatment for acute and chronic illnesses; case
management, referrals to specialists as needed: and social
services. Open to all individuals with developmental
disabilities, there is no county residency requirement to
receive these services.
