Did you know there are programs that give assistance for respite, assistive technology, and other services for children and adults with special needs? ID, DD, EDCD — what do they all mean? This lecture will provide an overview of the Medicaid Waiver System in Virginia.
You will learn what a waiver is, why you might need one, what it can do for your family and how to apply for it.

Check out the Lecture Series website for the audio and handouts from previous lectures. 
The Access Community Lecture Series, hosted by the Access Ministry of McLean Bible Church, takes place one Monday evening each month from September – June (excluding April). A speaker gives a presentation on a topic of interest to the disability community.  The lectures cover a variety of issues affecting all ages and disabilities. They are free and open to anyone in the community who would be helped by these resources especially parents, teachers, therapists, and volunteers.  As a reminder, the lectures are intended for adults only, so please make other childcare arrangements as necessary. 
If you would like to have hard-copies of the flyers to hand out, please email me your address and the quantity that you would like and I will send them to you. Also, if you would prefer to have the flyers emailed to you as a PDF attachment, just let me know.  We would love to get the word out about the Lecture Series to as many people as possible to help provide more resources to those affected by disabilities and those who help care for them.
Thank you for your help and for your time.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or to RSVP (appreciated, but not required) at erin.roundtree@mcleanbible.org or 703-770-2938.
