How do I know if I qualify for waiver-funded services?

Eligibility runs through the Maryland Developmental Disabilities Administration. If you have not applied, we can explain what the application asks for. If you already have a Coordinator of Community Services, bring us into that conversation and we will work with them directly.

Can we combine more than one service?

Yes. Most families do. Personal support and transportation together is a common pairing, and supported living often runs alongside community development.

How does the Laurel office affect scheduling?

It shortens travel time for most of the county, which helps with consistency. The same caregiver showing up on schedule matters more than almost anything else families tell us.
