Fwd: FCC: Survey of the Waitlist funded by FDDC

[Guest guest]

According to this, there are currently 17,000+ folks on the waiting list for Medwaiver services. I am just blown away by the sheer numbers. When the list moved several years ago, there were 14,000 on the list...and I believe several thousand, my son included, received the FSL at that time. Wake up, Florida legislature. Autism is not going away.
