Quarterly Update: Supporting Adults with Developmental Disabilities and Brain Injury in their Homes and Communities
Jan 1, 2020
The Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) provides home- and community-based services to adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and brain injury primarily through MaineCare-funded programs. These are often called waiver programs because they operate with special exceptions from the federal government and are referred to by their Section number, which is where they can be found in the MaineCare rules.
