Developmental disabilities alone shall not constitute sufficient justification for judicial commitment. Instead, persons with developmental disabilities shall receive services pursuant to this division. Persons who constitute a danger to themselves or others may be judicially committed pursuant to Article 2 (commencing with Section 6500) of Chapter 2 of Part 2 of Division 6 if evidence of such danger is proven in court.
