Disabled People and their Families can Live their Best Lives
We empower the disability community to successfully advocate for services.
Medicaid waivers offer lifelong medical and support services for people with disabilities, but the application process is hard to navigate. We offer Colorado’s only program that teaches people how to apply for a Colorado Medicaid waiver and fully maximize its life-transforming benefits. This empowers disabled people and their families to live their best lives.
What’s a Waiver?
Medicaid waivers enable disabled people and their families to qualify for Medicaid benefits by ‘waiving’ the standard eligibility restrictions based on parental income. There are 10 Medicaid waivers available in Colorado. The waiver application process is challenging, so our training and services help people successfully apply for, and maximize, all of the benefits they may be eligible for.
Why are Waivers Vital for the Disabled?
Medicaid waivers offer life-transforming medical coverage, service benefits and caregiver income opportunities. Waivers enable people with disabilities and their families to live fuller lives. Parents can use services that give them more time, financial stability and the knowledge that their disabled child has a life-long safety net of support no matter what happens.

“I love to put families in the driver’s seat by teaching them to take charge of their Medicaid disability benefits and stop being dependent on our overburdened case management agencies as their only source of information.”
