Many of the families that we serve have long term needs related to their child's intellectual or developmental disability in addition to immediate mental health concerns. I always recommend getting on the "interest list" (waitlist) for CLASS Waiver and HCS, as these provide substantial support, but often require families to wait years (sometimes over a decade). Here are some highlights from each program, and links to learn more about joining the interest lists.
CLASS Waiver: This Medicaid waiver provides funding for therapies, including a spread of specialized therapies such as music therapy, massage therapy, and equestrian therapy.
HCS: This program provides funding for long term residential care.
