Medicaid started allowing this during COVID and they have since got this extended now that the emergency is over.  Pay isn't great - I've been quoted $13-17 per hour but I'm sure this can be a game changer to many families.  The person I spoke with says they have gotten each parent authorized to provide 50 hours of services per week to their child.  Some agencies have a max of 40 hours per parent.

Contact your Medicaid provider to see what agencies in your area do this.  Parents need to be trained/certified and the training is free.

Thanks, we're going to look into this.

I saw this in my fb feed a few times and couldn't go back and find it, so I really appreciate you putting it here.
