Together We Can Make a Difference

The Family Support Waiver provides individualized services designed to help children and young adults with developmental disabilities live safely and successfully in their family home. This waiver focuses on strengthening family stability, building independence, and reducing the need for out-of-home placement by offering flexible supports that meet each child’s unique needs.

Through the Family Support Waiver, families can access services such as respite, habilitation, personal care, assistive technology, behavior support, and community integration. These supports help children develop daily living skills, participate in meaningful activities, and stay connected to school, peers, and their community. The waiver also empowers families by offering training, resources, and guidance so they can feel confident in caring for their loved one.

The goal of the Family Support Waiver is to enhance quality of life, promote inclusion, and ensure families have the assistance they need to help their child reach their fullest potential.
