Department of Health and Welfare and Medicaid are working
on improving services for children with developmental disabilities. They have already begun holding work groups, focus groups and committees to make changes to services for children. Now they are giving families and providers the opportunity to share input. They are hoping to implement the redesign by July 2011, and are asking for input into this redesign. A family directed service option and a traditional service model option are being looked at.

Give your input by visiting the Children's System Redesign website.

You will find answers to frequently asked questions and surveys that are available so that you can provide information on what you would like children's services to look like. Please, share this information.
