Home and Community Based Waiver Program
The Home and Community Based Services Waiver, which was launched by Green Chimneys’ Community Based Services program in April 2007, enables children to remain at home, and/or in the community, thus decreasing institutional placement. The program uses an individualized care approach to service planning, delivery and evaluation. This approach is based on a full partnership between family members and service providers. Service plans focus upon the unique needs of each child and builds upon the strengths of the family unit. |
