Building Changes

There are some exciting changes happening at the Knox County Board of Developmental Disabilities.  We are starting a project within our building to remodel and build an addition.  This project will allow us to have more privacy and space for individuals, families and providers when there are meetings.  It will also give staff space to work with less distraction and allow for additional storage space.  All of our staff will be working remotely or at drop in spaces in the back of the building over the next year. 

If you need to come to our office, please call ahead of time to be sure the person you are looking for is in the building. The number is 740-397-4656. Our main entrance door will be closed starting this week. When you call ahead to notify someone that you are coming to our office, we will instruct you at that time on how to find us in the back of the building.  If you need to talk to someone, all cell phones, desk phones and email addresses are still functioning and you should be able to reach our staff. Meetings during the renovation will be held off site at various locations within our community.

Our address and phone number will not change.  If you need to look up direct contact information for any of our staff, it can easily be found on our website: https://www.knoxdd.com/agency-directory

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Sincerely,

Steve Oster
