WAC 388-825-228   How can short-term intervention services through the family support opportunity program help my family?  If your family is eligible, you may receive up to one thousand five hundred dollars per year in short-term intervention funding to pay for necessary services not otherwise available.

     (1) Short-term intervention funds can be authorized for a one-time only need or for an episodic service need that occurs over a one-year period.

     (2) Short-term intervention funding cannot be used for basic subsistence such as food or shelter but is available for those specialized costs directly related to and resulting from your child's disability.
