BDS is the DDARS bureau that runs Indiana's intellectual and developmental disability system. It determines eligibility, operates the Family Supports and Community Integration and Habilitation Medicaid waivers plus the Health and Wellness and Traumatic Brain Injury waivers, administers Supervised Group Living group homes, approves and monitors waiver providers, and staffs eight district field services offices covering all 92 counties. Applications are taken through the BDS Gateway online portal or on paper at a district office. BDS was named the Bureau of Developmental Disabilities Services (BDDS) until the 2025 DDARS reorganization.
