Ive waited several years for community services. If I accept Childrens Choice instead of the NOW Waiver, do I lose the opportunity to get a Waiver if my childs needs change?
If a child’s needs significantly change and the crisis or non-crisis designation is met, the child’s name would be returned to the Request for Services Registry with the child’s original request date. There is also an administrative appeal process for families who request and are denied either crisis or non-crisis designation. Additionally, once your child turns age nineteen (19), and continues to meet the eligibility criteria, your child would transfer to an appropriate NOW Waiver.
