1. Regional Center of Orange County 2011 Performance Contract
Introduce Self

2. Beginning January 1, 1993, Senate Bill 1383 (McCorquodale) required the Department of Developmental Services (Department) to enter into five-year outcome-based performance contracts with regional centers. The experience gained by the Department and the regional centers from their initial data led to an interest in refining the process of establishing and measuring both system and individual outcomes. This also led to an overall system reform effort which sought to establish a comprehensive performance-based system of accountability for all who serve consumers and their families. This project modifies the existing performance contracting process so that it aligns with the system reform effort.

3. Outcome-based performance plans must be developed through meaningful participation with each regional center’s local community. The regional center shall conduct at least one public meeting, with 10 calendar days advance notice, where participants can provide input on the performance plan. Regional centers shall also use focus groups or surveys to collect information from the community.
