The Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities works toward creating a single individual service plan
No two counties use the same ISP template. The information found on the front page in one county's plan may be found in the middle of another county's plan. DODD understands the difficulty of working with a variety of plans. As a result, DODD is working toward a single individual service plan!
