and the process for filing complaints and requesting information. For the purposes of this document, "customers" are defined as consumers, family members, advocates, taxpayers, public officials, service providers, community based organizations, media, other agency representatives, and other interested parties.</p> <h2>VISION</h2> <p>A Texas where people with disabilities and families with children who have developmental delays enjoy the same opportunities as other Texans to pursue independent and productive lives.</p> <h2>MISSION</h2> <p>To work in partnership with Texans with disabilities and families with children who have developmental delays to improve the quality of their lives and enable their full participation in society.</p> <h2>PROGRAM SERVICES</h2> <h4>Division for Early Childhood Intervention</h4> <p>A statewide program designed to support families with children, birth to age three, with disabilities and developmental delays. The main goal is to help these children reach their potential through developmental services provided by a variety of local agencies and organizations across Texas.</p> <h4>Division for Rehabilitation Services</h4> <p>Designated as the state's principal authority on the vocational rehabilitation of Texans with disabilities, the main purpose is to assist people with disabilities to participate in their communities by achieving employment of choice, living as independently as possible, and accessing high quality services.</p> <h4>Office for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services</h4> <p>Within the Division for Rehabilitative Services, the Office for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services (DHHS) works in partnership with people who are deaf or hard of hearing to eliminate societal and communication barriers to improve equal access.</p> <h4>Division for Blind Services</h4> <p>This program is designed to assist blind or visually impaired individuals, to regain independence or secure employment, and to assist their families, depending on their goals and needs. The services vary by individual and are intended to be comprehensive in scope.</p> <h2>CUSTOMER SERVICE</h2> <h4>Principles</h4> <p>As a Texas Health and Human Services department, we commit to providing high quality services in a professional and ethical manner. In order to do so, we will:</p> <ul> <li>Treat our customers with courtesy and respect;</li> <li>Ensure access to and provision of services is fair and equitable;</li> <li>Implement new and creative approaches to improve quality of services;</li> <li>Operate based on our customers' overall needs and feedback;</li> <li>Provide understandable information in a variety of formats;</li> <li>Ensure sound management of programs and funds;</li> <li>Work in cooperation with customers;</li> <li>Protect private information and share public information in accordance with applicable laws.</li> </ul> <h4>Standards</h4> <p>Texans can expect to receive high quality services from all Texas Health and Human Services departments. To meet this expectation, we will:</p> <ul> <li>Process applications and respond to contacts accurately and within required timeframes;</li> <li>Employ courteous and knowledgeable staff;</li> <li>Respond appropriately to language or other special needs;</li> <li>Expand access to information and services, such as by Internet and phone;</li> <li>Provide services in safe facilities and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).</li> </ul> <h4>Referral for Services</h4> <p>Consumers will receive a referral to a local field office when they call the Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services (DARS) Inquiries Line at 1-800-628-5115, which operates Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. When a consumer is referred to a local office, we will initiate the application process or schedule an appointment to do so within five business days.</p> <h4>Application for Services</h4> <p>After a consumer has made application for services, eligibility will be determined within the timeframe established by program eligibility requirements.</p> <h4>Service Delivery</h4> <p>Consumers and other members of the public will be treated in a courteous, responsive manner that promotes the independence and self-reliance of Texans with disabilities. Specific federal and state requirements relating to timely service delivery and/or response times will be followed and monitored within each program to ensure compliance. This principle applies to services and to licensing or certification.</p> <h2>COMPLAINT PROCESS</h2> <p>Written complaints must be signed and should include the names and contact information for persons named in the complaint as well as a statement of the facts on which the complaint is based.
