Early Intervention
Waiver
HCBS stands for Home and Community Based Services.
For children five and under with autism, you may be eligible to apply for the HCBS autism waiver program. It provides services such as consultation, intensive therapy, respite care, and parent training.
It is on a waiting list system, so apply as soon as you have a diagnosis. More information on the program as well as the application form can be found at the Kansas Early Autism site.
