30:4-177.40. Development Center at Ancora
2. The Developmental Center at Ancora is established within the Division of Developmental Disabilities in the Department of Human Services and shall include the pilot program designed to serve the special needs of both the dually diagnosed and discharged pending placement populations. The Developmental Center at Ancora shall accept for treatment only those individuals transferred from State facilities under the supervision of the Division of Mental Health Services and the Division of Developmental Disabilities in the Department of Human Services.
Nothing in this amendatory and supplementary act shall be construed to require placement at the Developmental Center at Ancora of those persons discharged pending placement who are not in need of institutional care and who have been judicially or administratively determined appropriate for community placement.
For those persons for whom institutional placement is initially determined to be judicially or administratively appropriate, the Developmental Center at Ancora shall nevertheless provide discharge-oriented treatment to achieve the goal of ultimate discharge into community settings as soon as their conditions permit.
