I object to the proposed Waiver Services - Section 12-VAC 30-120.    Supported Employment is a professional service.  A Job Coach is considered a specialized profession that requires training in order to assist individuals with severe disabilities achieve successful employment outcomes.  The proposed waiver services will diminish the professionalism of this service for the individual as well as the business community.  Service providers in the field have worked very hard with the business community helping them see the benefits and value of hiring an individual with a disabiltiy to meet their employment needs.  We present ourselves in a professional manner, our job coaches have a bachelor or masters degree, are covered by professional liability insurance, workers compensation and are paid a decent wage in order to ensure consistency and stability for our customer and the business' who hires our customers.  The business community expects a professional level of expertise and the assurance of the insurance protection that they get with working with a professional Employment Service Organization.
