Tishrei and pesach they don't do boxes, they do the family trip instead.
Side note, what's self direction? |
Self direction is a program where the individual gets a budget and you decide what you want to spend in which category. You need to be on top of managing your budget, uploading receipts for reimbursement, but you can potentially get a lot more out of it. For us it was a no-brainer, because my child was originally approved for only 6 hours of respite per week. Now with a 40something thousand budget, dc can join different community classes such as swimming and art, get more hours of respite, so a worker can take dc to these classes and we can get reimbursed for transportation to these community classes, too. I can self hire staff and pay them more per hour, too. The agency takes 18% addtl from the budget from any self hired staff hours billed. There is also a broker that gets like 3k yearly from the budget.
