Support Coordination

 A trained Division facilitator will schedule a face-to-face meeting (virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic) with you and your guardian, if you have one. It can be helpful to have additional people participate in the meeting who know you and spend time with you – for example, other family members, service providers and caregivers 


The most important in the process of receiving your DDD benefits are answering the questions on the NJCAT, please inquire with our team to help understand the questions and the process
