Highland County Board of DD Superintendent set for retirement.

After nearly 40 years working with individuals with developmental disabilities in both the public and private sector, Superintendent Debra Buccilla has announced her retirement for the end of February 2024.

Deb has served as the Superintendent for both Fayette and Highland Counties since September 2014. During her time in Highland County, she had oversight of numerous changes and expansion in services. Significant strides were made in housing for adults, programming for youth transitioning into adulthood and early childhood services including Early Intervention, Help Me Grow and Preschool Services.

Prior to 2014, Deb served as the Chief Operating Officer for Alvis Inc. overseeing all programmatic services provided to both individuals with developmental disabilities as well to all special populations being served by the agency. Prior to this, Deb worked for the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities as a developmental center superintendent and an assistant deputy director overseeing all developmental centers in Ohio. As an advocate for individuals with disabilities, Deb has worked on a local, state and national level to promote policy change to benefit those with developmental disabilities.

Deb was past president of the Fairfield County Board of DD, the past president of the Ohio Community Corrections Association and a former board member for Advocacy & Protective Services, Inc. (APSI).

In recent years, Deb received the Self-Advocacy Hero Award from the Ohio Developmental Disabilities Council and the Ron Kozlowski Advocacy Award from Advocacy and Protective Services for her work in supporting statewide advocacy efforts.

Highland County has benefited from her guidance and leadership over the past nine years. Deb's passion for the field and ensuring individuals have the highest quality of care and supports shine through her work every day. Thank you, Deb, for your dedication and impact on so many over the years.

EARLY INTERVENTION
(birth up to age 3)

Early Intervention (EI) is a statewide system that provides coordinated early intervention services to parents of eligible children under the age of three with developmental delays or disabilities. EI is grounded in the philosophy that young children learn best from familiar people in familiar settings.

Supports for Adults

The coordination of supports for adults with developmental disabilities (age 22 and older) in Harrison County is guided by the principle of self-determination.

The Summit Housing Development Corporation or SHDC is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation separate from, but working in conjunction with multiple County Developmental Disability Boards.

SHDC was created to allow all County DD Boards the ability to access Capital Assistance Funds disbursed by the State of Ohio.

SHDC currently owns over 190 homes in 14 counties; Delaware, Holmes, Jefferson, Knox, Licking, Medina, Paulding, Portage, Summit, Trumbull, Tuscarawas, Union, Van Wert, and Washington Counties that provide housing for over 400 individuals. It is governed by a Board of Trustees and currently has four staff members. SHDC works closely with the County DD Boards and its affiliated agencies to help eligible individuals select the most suitable homes.

Consumers Living in SHDC Homes

Referrals for residential placements in SHDC homes are made by Service and Support Administrative Coordinators and are subject to approval by the Service Utilization Department. Once approved for residential placement, individuals will have the opportunity to choose their home. Placements are determined based on availability, emergency need and/or waiting list priority.

SHDC attempts to secure housing for eligible individuals based on choice, need, accessibility and location. Housing options must be developed in accordance with each individual's level of financial resources. Individuals pay rent through their own financial resources.

Supported-Living or Medicaid-Waiver funds provide for the support services (through certified providers) necessary to ensure health and safety in the homes.

"Thank YOU so much for such a magical experience for our family. We never have the opportunity to do such fun things in such a wonderful, safe and special space you created.

Ria W.

"I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for putting on the "Trick or Suites" (pre-pandemic name) at the Embassy Suites in Dublin today. This is the second year that our son has done this (he's 6) and I can tell you how excited he gets and puts a smile on his face. While at first he is usually a bit 'shy', but the time we get around to the end, he is so into "saying tick or treat', or thank you, etc. (all the appropriate responses) he is fully into it. While I know this year was different, credit to you and all your partners for putting on a well organized and fun event. I truly hope that fun was had by all of our kiddo's in Central Ohio, but everyone who volunteered. The smiles and laughs were very heart warming. Some days can be difficult as a parent of a child on the spectrum, and this year has certainly not had a lack of them, but today is one that was so enjoyable for him, which makes us all proud."
