ADSD positions assigned to the CBC ensure a coordinated support system to meet the needs of at-risk elderly and people with disabilities by providing case management and essential services to recipients of CBC programs statewide to facilitate community integration and avoid institutionalization.

The mission of ADSD is to provide leadership and advocacy in the planning, development, and delivery of a high quality, comprehensive support service system across the lifespan to allow all of Nevada's elders, children, and adults with disabilities or special health care needs, to live independent, meaningful, and dignified lives to the greatest extent possible.
