Abstract
An examination of service delivery models implemented in different cultural settings can be informative and enriching. This article draws together the findings of a comparative review of two service delivery systems with almost identical responsibilities for the coordination of services to individuals with developmental disabilities. The most unique aspect of comparing these two service systems is the location of the two entities: Southwark Consortium is based within the London borough of Southwark of the United Kingdom (UK); and, Denver Options, Inc. is located in the City and County of Denver in the United States of America (USA). Despite an ocean in between them, the two organizations have learned from each other and will continue to follow each other's progress, and selectively test each other's new ideas and approaches.
