Implementing Self Direction in Section 29 Home and Community Based Services Support Waiver

Please join the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Aging and Disability Services (OADS) and GT Independence for an in-depth presentation on the implementation of self-direction for members receiving the waiver program under Section 29. During this presentation case managers, members, and families will receive information on the role of the Financial Management service, the role of the Support Broker and how to make a referral to GT Independence.
