Bill > H0532

This bill adds a new chapter to Idaho's existing laws to establish an extended employment services program. The program aims to increase employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities that constitute a barrier to maintaining paid employment without long-term vocational support. The key provisions of the bill include defining eligibility criteria, covered services (individual community supported employment, group community-based supported employment, and work services), and requirements for approved providers. The Department of Health and Welfare is responsible for implementing the program, including approving providers, entering agreements, and promulgating necessary rules.
