More Definitions of Developmental disabilities
Developmental disabilities means chronic disabilities attributable to mental or physical impairments apparent before the age of 22. These disabilities tend to be life-long and result in substantial functional limitations in major life activities such as self-care, receptive and expressive language, learning, mobility, self- direction, capacity for independent living and economic self-sufficiency.
Developmental disabilities means a severe chronic disability of a person that:
Developmental disabilities means disabilities attributable to intellectual disability, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism, or any other neurologically disabling condition closely related to intellectual disability and requiring treatment similar to that required by intellectually disabled individuals if the disability originated before the individual attained age 18, has continued or can be expected to continue indefinitely, and results in the person having a substantial disability.

Developmental disabilities disability" means autism or a severe, chronic disability that meets all of the following conditions identified in 42 CFR 435.1009: 1. Attributable to cerebral palsy, epilepsy, or any other condition, other than mental illness, that is found to be closely related to mental retardation (intellectual disability) because this condition results in impairment of general intellectual functioning or adaptive behavior similar to behavior of individuals with mental retardation (intellectual disability) and requires treatment or services similar to those required for these individuals; 2. Manifested before the individual reaches age 18; 3. Likely to continue indefinitely; and 4. Results in substantial functional limitations in three or more of the following areas of major life activity: a. Self-care; b. Understanding and use of language; c. Learning; d. Mobility; e. Self-direction; or f.
