Medicaid waivers are the way Virginia funds services for people with developmental disabilities. Everything from a small amount of respite, to in-home care, to employment supports are covered by waivers. In this one-hour presentation, Lucy Beadnell, our Director of Advocacy, will review what waivers are, what services waivers offer, how to apply, and give tips for families on waiting lists for services.
