Correction made to monthly allottment for Home-Based folks

I thought this might be helpful to pass along to your group for those who are in

the Home-Based Support Services program.

There was a rounding error in the original notice of 2012 increases to Adult and

Children Waiver participants monthly allotment.

The correct monthly amount for children ages 3 to 17 and young adults who are

between the ages of 18 and 21 and enrolled in a Special Education program is

$1,396 not $1,397.

The maximum amount for adults ages 22 and older, and adults ages 18 - 21 who are

no longer in Special Education, is currently to $2,094 not $2095.

DHS apologizes for any inconvenience that was caused by this error and you can
