The establishment of D&E Clinics throughout the state allows families to access services within their own community. The purpose of the handbook is to describe the Diagnostic & Evaluation (D&E) Clinic Program's guidelines and procedures. The goal is to provide stakeholders (i.e. D&E Clinic Coordinators, Part C Representatives, D&E Clinic Teams, HCP Personnel, etc.) with a clear understanding of how the clinics operate. It is important to note that each community's D&E clinic is unique, although general operating procedures and fundamentals are the same, as outlined in this handbook.

Offenders on regular parole have mental health services and sex offender treatment available to them through the division's ATP service network. Offenders with a mental health code of P3 or above may be eligible for ATP services through treatment referrals from their respective community parole officer. The division coordinates the offender's treatment through the ATP Network and also works closely with the State's local mental health centers. In order for an offender to get credit for their parole ordered treatment, the treatment provider must be ATP approved.
