The IQ (Intelligence Quotient) assessment tool is used in determining eligibility for services. Typically, the Local Authority (county government entity), can assist a family in getting a loved one assessed with an IQ test, but sometimes there can be a wait time for that assistance. A family member can obtain additional information forms our agency in how to expedite IQ testing, and how to explore other options for getting this test completed more quickly if the wait time is an obstacle to receiving needed services (e.g., private testing).
