Self Verified
The organization reviewed its own listing, corrected it, and confirmed it is accurate. Self Verified listings can carry the organization's logo.

Data & Verification
How we build and verify the directory
ConnectIDD built this directory so families, case managers, and school counselors can find disability services in minutes, not weeks. It is free to search, needs no account to search, and has no paid placements.
- 0listings
- 0Confirmed Profiles
- 0counties
- 0states and DC
The three labels
Every listing carries one of three labels. They are not quality ratings. They tell you how we know what we know, so you can decide what to do next.
| Label | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Self Verified | The organization reviewed and confirmed its own listing. ConnectIDD checked that the person who confirmed it works there. It is not a rating or an endorsement. | Current details from the source. Check the date. |
| Confirmed Profile | Checked by our research team against the organization's own website or a government source, and described in its own words. | A reliable start. Confirm openings yourself. |
| Registry Listing | Licensed at this address, according to a federal or state provider registry. Services are inferred from the license type. | Call before you rely on it. Some have closed. |
Self Verified and Confirmed Profiles show by default. To add Registry Listings, go to the List tab and tick “Also show Registry Listings.” They are large files and unconfirmed, but they include many of the Medicaid waiver providers families choose from.
Self Verified
Any organization in the directory can self verify, at no cost. Someone who works there finds the listing, checks every field, fixes what is wrong, and confirms the rest is accurate. They can add the organization's logo at the same time.
- Find your listing
- Check and correct every field
- Add your logo
- Confirm it is accurate
Before the label goes live, ConnectIDD checks one thing: that the person confirming the listing works for the organization. We do not review the quality of an organization's services, and the label does not rank or endorse anyone.
When you pick a state, Self Verified organizations in that state appear first, in alphabetical order, followed by every other listing. The label lasts 12 months. After that the organization confirms its listing again to keep it.
What the label is not. It is not a license, an accreditation, a rating, or a guarantee of results. Always confirm current licensing and fit.
Recent activity
A license, a website or a social media page shows that an organization existed. It does not show that it is still open. So listings carry a second, separate line: whether we found recent evidence that the organization is operating.
We look for dated public records from the last 24 months: an IRS return filed for a recent tax year, a current federal certification or survey, Medicare billing or a recent Medicare revalidation, and dated content on the organization's own website. A listing shows Recent activity found when it has one strong sign or two supporting ones, and nothing pointing the other way. Public agencies and school districts are treated as active. Self Verified organizations confirmed their listing themselves.
Organizations whose tax exemption was revoked, or whose federal certification was terminated, have been removed from the directory. No recent activity found yet does not mean an organization has closed, only that public records do not yet show it. Call before you rely on any listing.
Reading a listing
- Recent activity found
- Public records from the last 24 months show the organization is operating.
- No recent activity found yet
- Public records do not show activity in the last 24 months yet. That does not mean it closed.
- Not confirmed, call first
- No sign it closed, and no current proof it is open. Call first.
- Closed organizations
- Removed from the directory. Renamed organizations stay, listed under their current name.
- Blank fields
- No source gave the answer. Blank means unknown, not no. Tell us if you know.
- Language access
- Listed only when the organization says it offers it.
Paying for services
Payment labels work the same in every state. Medicaid Waiver (state IDD/DD waiver) means the organization accepts its state's home and community-based services (HCBS) waiver. Each listing's notes name the program. Medicaid (non-waiver) covers Medicaid state plan services, including 1915(i) benefits, ICF/IID care, and behavioral health. State-funded (non-Medicaid) means services paid with state dollars, often through a regional or county authority, for people who are not on Medicaid or are waiting for a waiver.
Where a listing was built from a state license list, payment is read from the licensed service type, and the listing's notes say so. Where it was built from the organization's website, payment is what the website says.
Each state below links to its official Medicaid waiver or developmental disability program page, with eligibility rules, applications, and waiting lists.
Payment details show what an organization says it accepts. They do not guarantee eligibility or an open spot, and waiting lists are long almost everywhere.
Map view
Map view plots your results so you can see how close a service really is. It follows your filters. Pick a state to see its counties, then pick a county to zoom in.
Each dot is the center of a ZIP code, not a street address. Organizations in the same ZIP code share a dot, and bigger dots mean more organizations. Call to confirm where services are delivered.
How it is built
For each state, we map the public disability system first, from government sources: the developmental disabilities agency, vocational rehabilitation, early intervention (Part C), protection and advocacy, the university center, and the centers for independent living. Then we search for providers county by county, across every ZIP code.
Sources we check each listing against
- The organization's own website
- IRS nonprofit records
- The CMS provider registry
- State licensing and provider lists
- Census ZIP code data
- State facility closure lists
The build log, region by region
Texas, the original file
Started with eleven source lists and a 2025 field survey of disability services across North Texas.
The southern expansion
Twenty counties, from Dallas-Fort Worth down the I-45 corridor to Houston and the Gulf coast. Harris County alone added more listings than the original nine-county file.
The northern backfill
An audit against the federal registry found the first sweep had missed providers in the two largest counties. Dallas held 33 percent of the registry's organizations and Tarrant 42 percent, against 81 percent in Fort Bend and 95 percent in Collin. We added 1,671 organizations and corrected 76 older listings.
Texas statewide
The other 214 counties were added in one pass, covering all 254. All 39 local IDD authorities are mapped, and together they cover every county with no gaps or overlaps.
Delaware, the first state outside Texas
All three counties at once. Delaware publishes a live table of every approved waiver provider and the counties it covers. That table is the backbone of its profiles.
The national build
Every other state followed in alphabetical order: public systems first, then a registry sweep of every county, then Confirmed Profiles in the metro and regional hub counties. See national coverage.
National coverage
The directory covers all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and all 3,143 counties. Every state has its public disability system mapped from government sources, plus researched profiles focused on its metro and regional hub counties.
Where a state publishes its own provider file, we use the whole thing. That includes Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa. Four states publish nothing usable: California, Arizona, Colorado, and Idaho.
Registry Listings in every state. All 51 jurisdictions now carry Registry Listings, 847,522 licensed providers in all.
Individual practitioners. About 36,861 Registry Listings are solo practices registered under a person's own name, such as a counselor, psychologist, or therapist in private practice. They are labelled Individual practitioner, and the Provider type filter shows or hides them.
Veteran services. Added 29 Sep 2026 as the third area of service. 5,538 Confirmed Profiles come from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs facility directory (health care sites, Vet Centers, benefits offices, and national cemeteries) and from each state's own directory of state, county, city, and tribal veterans service offices and state veterans homes. 46,910 Registry Listings come from the VA roster of accredited service offices, VA grant recipients, and veteran nonprofits and posts (American Legion, VFW, AMVETS, DAV, and others) in the IRS exempt organizations file. Pick Veteran Services under Area of service to see them.
College programs. Added 5 Oct 2026 as the fourth area of service: programs held by community colleges, colleges and universities, and technical colleges for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities, plus college support programs for autistic students in degree programs. Details come from Think College program pages, which the programs fill in themselves, the Federal Student Aid list of approved Comprehensive Transition and Postsecondary (CTP) programs, and ConnectIDD's own search of state lists and college websites. Each listing shows its state VR agency and whether it has a waiting list. Costs, funding, and VR details are based on the most recently available data. Pick College Programs under Area of service to see them and to filter by cost, length, housing, and federal aid. Transition programs run by independent organizations are listed separately under Adult transition programs.
National organizations. 174 Confirmed Profiles serve people across the country, such as national advocacy groups, adaptive sports networks, and help lines. They are labelled Serves nationally and appear in every state and county search; the location shown is their home base.
No states are profile-thin. In these states the researched pass is still to come: .
No two state systems are alike. California runs an entitlement through 21 regional centers. Arizona uses statewide managed care. Arkansas assigns families to one of four provider-led entities. Florida calls its waiting list "pre-enrollment" and had 14,536 people on it in September 2026. Hawaii has no waiting list and no state institution since 1999. Illinois has 17,912 people on its PUNS list. Indiana has 11,868 waiting for its Family Supports waiver. Iowa has 30,531 people across seven waiver waiting lists.
What the data shows
Thin results are usually a real finding, not a research gap. We never pad a county to make it look better served than it is.
Every state system is different
California runs an entitlement under the Lanterman Act, so it has no waiver waiting list. Colorado redrew its case management map in 2024. Connecticut still runs Southbury Training School.
Independent living has the biggest gaps
Four centers cover 37 of Alabama's 67 counties, and three cover 25 of Arkansas's 75.
Some services are rare everywhere
Sibling support, disability food programs, and nonprofit guardianship are close to absent in almost every state.
Distance is the finding
Fifteen Texas counties have no organization based in them. From Marfa or Van Horn, the nearest day program or ABA clinic is three to five hours away.
Families cross state lines
New Castle County, Delaware, uses Philadelphia. Western Sussex uses Salisbury, Maryland. This directory lists in-state providers only.
Registries mirror how clinicians register
Delaware clinicians often register a practice as an organization, so behavioral health makes up more of Delaware's Registry Listings than Texas's.
Who pays for it
Searching is free and always will be. No account and no paywall to search. Downloads ask who you are first: people with disabilities and family members always download free, and organizations, foundations, and others get five free downloads before an annual supporter membership. Sponsorships fund the work.
National sponsorship. Up to three organizations fund the directory as a whole. Their logos, linking back to their websites, lead every search and every spreadsheet downloaded, in every state.
State sponsorship. A company or foundation funds the research for one state. Its logo follows the National Sponsors at the top of every search and spreadsheet downloaded for that state. Meet our sponsors or see sponsorship options.
What sponsors cannot buy. A place in the directory, a higher ranking, a different label, or a removal. Nobody can pay to be listed or to be taken out.
Self Verified is free. Organizations never pay to confirm their listing, and the label cannot be bought.
Corrections and additions
The people who know an organization best are the people who run it and the families who use it. If a listing is wrong or missing, tell us. The form fills in what we already have, so you only change what is wrong.
A person at ConnectIDD reviews every submission, usually within a week. Updates are always free. Questions: [email protected].
