In 1977, a national mail survey of all community residential facilities (CRFs) for mentally retarded persons throughout the United States was conducted by the staff of the Developmental Disabilities Project on Residential Services and Community Adjustment at the University of Minnesota. The results of 4,427 participating facilities were summarized in this report. Demographic information on facility size, location, ownership, and reimbursement rates was presented as well as general characteristics about the residents and their movement trends. The impact of the deinstitutionalization movement for mentally retarded persons was substantially verified by the results of this survey: between 1973 and 1977, the number of CRFs doubled. Wide variations in facility size and the extent to which states use community living arrangements to serve mentally retarded people were two notable trends confirmed by the survey results.
1977年，明尼苏达大学住宅服务与社区适应发展障碍项目的工作人员对美国所有为智障人士提供服务的社区住宅设施（CRF）进行了一次全国性邮件调查。本报告总结了4427个参与调查的设施的结果。报告呈现了设施规模、位置、所有权和报销率等人口统计信息，以及居民的一般特征及其流动趋势。本次调查结果充分证实了智障人士去机构化运动的影响：1973年至1977年间，社区住宅设施的数量翻了一番。调查结果证实了两个显著趋势，即设施规模差异很大，以及各州利用社区生活安排为智障人士提供服务的程度各不相同。
