★ Common Questions ★
Questions We Hear Often
Real answers to what families are actually asking — no jargon, no runaround.
📋 What is an IDD waiver?
A waiver is a Medicaid program that funds home and community-based services for people with IDD. Each state has different waivers with different eligibility rules and services covered.
🗺 Where do I even start?
Start with your state’s IDD agency. From there, you’ll look at eligibility, waitlists, and what services your loved one may qualify for. We can help you understand the steps.
🌿 What services can waivers cover?
Depending on the waiver, services can include respite care, day programs, supported employment, therapies, assistive technology, and more.
