Welcome!  If you, or your agency, would like assistance from The Franklin County Board of Developmental Disabilities (FCBDD) with applying to The Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) for Certification to provide DODD Waiver and/or Non-Waiver services, please refer to the information below:

Note: The Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) is the only Certifying entity for all Agency and Non-Agency (Independent) Provider Applicants of Supported Living, Individual Options (I.O.), Level I (LI) and Self-Empowered Life Funding (S.E.L.F) Waivers.  County Boards merely provide support to applicants for this process, but have no authority to Certify Providers.

Two tracks are offered by FCBDD for approval assistance, so please select the category that best represents your current status, for proper direction:

(1) I have been recruited by an individual or an individual’s family to provide Homemaker Personal Care (HPC) Services {and/or other related services to include: Ohio Shared Living, Participant-Directed HPC (formerly “Community Inclusion”), HPC-Transportation and/or Non-Medical Transportation}.

(2) I have NOT yet been recruited by an individual or an individual’s family and am seeking assistance with obtaining DODD Provider Certification for Homemaker Personal Care (HPC) Services {and/or other related services to include, Ohio Shared Living, Participant-Directed HPC (formerly “Community Inclusion”), HPC-Transportation, and/or Non-Medical Transportation}.

*If neither of the above selections directly relate to your inquiry, please refer to the  “Provider Resources” tab for additional options.
