know any Agencies in or around Atlanta, that serve cognitively delayed adults?

I currently work at a agency in Knoxville Tn and I absolutly love working with the clients. I'm getting married and will be moving to Georgia so I need to find out some similar agencies that I can look into. I specifically want to work with adults with developmental disabilities.

Any idea on how to get a list of places that offer services to individuals

Jill99 		The 2 best known are Annandale in Swaunee which is a residential facility www.annandale.org/ (the site includes info on employment) and Avida which is the contracted mental health agency in N. GA and serves developmentally delayed adults who reside in the community and handles Medicaid Waivers programs http://www.gamtns.org/ I have a friend whose adult sister is at Annandale and had applied to work there myself when I first came to GA but took a different job. It at least 40yrs old and has a very good reputation, Another friend is a case manager with Avida. You may also find Atlanta Alliance on Developmental Disabilities www.aadd,org and Fulton and Dekalb county mental health depts useful resources.
