Inland Regional Center (IRC)
Inland Regional Center (IRC) is one of 21 Regional Centers throughout the State of California that is mandated through the Lanterman Act to serve individuals with developmental disabilities. IRC is a private, nonprofit organization that receives a contract through the Department of Developmental Services. The IRC agreement provides services for preschool and school age students in three areas: Early Start (ages 0-3), School Age (ages 3-13), and Transition (ages 14-22). Services include, but are not limited to early intervention, at-risk services, Individualized Family Services Plans (IFSPs), respite services, educational advocacy, inclusion support, career information, transition, job search, and advanced learning. A person is eligible for services if he/she has a developmental disability that originates before the individual reaches age 18 and constitutes a substantial disability for that individual. This definition relates to intellectual disability or treatment that is similar to that required for intellectual disability but does not include any conditions that are solely physical in nature. The following steps are necessary for application for services:
