DDD and ALTCS Budget Crisis In Arizona
I have been briefly following up with Brandi Coon, Co-founder of Raising Voices Coalition, what is going on. We haven't been able to attend the previous meetings downtown Phoenix, from Tucson, still getting things settled from the move and catching up on specialist appointments, for the kids.
Looking for more advocacy and support for my family, in this battle. Been trying to get more certs to do the Paid Parent Program, and just getting the wait until things are more official.
Easier said than done. In the middle of these PT, OT, and Speech therapy evaluations for school grade transition, paperwork is due at the end of April and falling onto the uncertainties of having these services available, continuously, for the Summer.
Have no idea if it is just the state of Arizona getting the burnt end of the political stats and mishandling funds of Department of Developmental and Disability (the funds are being withheld right now, by the state, as we speak because they are wanting to do strenuous cuts to these services of already shortages of).
It’s very draining thanks for getting the word out
