Evolving residential requirements for individuals with mild and moderate intellectual disabilities and related developmental disabilities increasingly place these people in community settings. The increasing numbers of these individuals are dependent upon local practitioners for needed health services. National and California data are reviewed in an effort to provide a general awareness of these community living arrangements, which in turn may assist in the delivery and the follow-up of oral health services.
