Subj: RE: Follow-Up re CAP-IDD waiver
Dear Ms. Short,
The CAP-IDD waiver (a.k.a., NC 0662, Comprehensive waiver) is not yet approved. We continue to work with the State toward getting the waiver approved.
We are also working with the State to get the NC 0663, Supports waiver for MR/IDD individuals approved. NC 0663 has the same extension date as the Comprehensive waiver. As you probably already know, the Supports waiver provides services for those individuals who needs are less severe than the individuals in the Comprehensive waiver.
Thank you,
Connie

Hi Connie. Here it is the beginning of June and we are all wondering (AGAIN - not your fault that our DMA does not let anyone know anything) if the CAP-IDD waiver is approved? We all know there is an extension to 06.28.2012. Thank you.

When we allow the value of human life to be determined by capital gain, when we sacrifice the well-being of the most innocent among us to compensate our own shortcomings, and when we judge the worth of our most fragile, not by their character nor intention, but rather their abilities – we are in crisis.
