Waivers and Wages Advocacy Day

Advocacy Days give members of Georgia’s intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) community the chance to connect directly with state leaders. They are a great opportunity for both new advocates and seasoned ones to have a real impact on our state’s policies for people with I/DD.

Waivers: COMP/NOW Waivers provide necessary care services and support to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Currently, we have over 7,000 Georgians waiting for waivers. They play a crucial role in offering pathways to employment and financial stability. Waivers also give people with disabilities a change to fully participate in their communities.

When: Wednesday, February 12, 2025 from 8am to 1:30pm EST

Location: Paul D. Coverdell Legislative Office Building, 18 Capitol Square Southwest Atlanta, GA 30334
