Application process
Call to schedule an initial assessment.
Fee
The assessment is provided free of charge. In addition to the basic services offered at no cost to families, financial assistance is available on a cost-sharing basis to help families with out-of-pocket care-giving expenses. Amounts are determined by actual expenses and household income. Established income guidelines are above poverty level to enable more middle-income families to participate. Some services offered after the initial assessment may be free of charge, and some may be fee-based. Details are discussed following the needs and eligibility assessment.
