4.4 DCR - Directory of Community Resources (Montague)
Project Description:
The Directory of Community Resources (DCR) was created to provide an up-to-date statewide resource for disability supports.
The goal is to provide a statewide directory searchable by geographic location and keywords that is accessible and current. Partnership with state agencies and organizations is also a goal as this will enhance the community use as well as maintenance.
Users are able to search via zip code, key word, and organization name. The resources come up in list format and can be sorted by name or distance.
Benefits of this database include currency of resources, ability to access anywhere online, and organizational collaboration.
FY 2024
Objectives:
