You can impact the Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities (IDD) Waiver
Renewal planning process.
Find out how!
Work is underway to make sure IDD waiver renewal reflects the needs of Kansans with IDD and their families.

You can get involved to make sure the voice of people with IDD and family members are included!

A number of workgroups will begin meeting over the summer on these topics:
? Conflict of interest (Targeted Case management /Community Developmental Disability Organizations (TCM/CDDO))
? Unbundling Day Services
? Unbundling Residential Services
? Ratio Billing
? Supported Employment
? Functional Assessment
? Assistive Technology

If you are interested in participating in a workgroup, sign up on the website [ [link removed] ].? (Note: signing up does not guarantee a spot on any particular group.)

The IDD Waiver Renewal Group is also seeking feedback on these topics as well which will help guide and inform the workgroups. This brief survey allows you to provide input on the areas related to the Waiver where changes are needed. You may provide input on as many areas as you would like. Fill out the survey on the website [ [link removed] ].?
