The Benton County Developmental Diversity program will relocate to the Benton County Sunset Building at 4077 SW Research Way in Corvallis on Monday, Feb. 27, 2023. The office will be closed from Wednesday, Feb. 22 through Friday, Feb. 24 in order to complete the move.

The Developmental Diversity Program has been working from its current leased space on 2420 Professional Drive in Corvallis since October 2015. Since then, the program has expanded to meet the growing needs of the community and has outgrown its current space. The move into the Sunset Building will provide more space for the program.

Since then, the program has expanded to meet the growing needs of the community and has outgrown its current space. The move will provide more space for the program to better serve clients and bring staff closer to their peers in other County programs.

“We have worked closely with our partners at the Health Department throughout the pandemic,” said Developmental Diversity Division Manager, Jasper Smith. “Being co-located with them offers many opportunities for the future. 

We will also be close to other community partners such as Vocational Rehabilitation to support people with disabilities in accessing jobs that contribute to the community."

The Benton County Developmental Diversity Program provides support for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities that meet state criteria for eligibility. The program serves as the point of access to services and support for people in Benton County. Learn more about the program and services.
