The Linkage Project is for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) who are not getting their preventive health needs met.

The Linkage Project Team from the Oregon Office on Disability and Health helps in three ways:   

  1. They ask people in the project questions about their preventive health needs.  
  2. They help people learn about healthy behaviors, going to the doctor, going to the dentist, getting screening tests, and getting mental health counseling
  3. They help people find preventive health care and other health supports in their community.
