Virginia wants to look good on paper to feel boast themselves
 

So instead of properly paying parent attendants you’re going to put more money in Agencies pockets? Literally EVERYONE wants to have their hands on my disabled son for profit. Case manager for this, for that, for this other one. But GOD forbid parents claim the pay to care for our children because there’s NO DAYCARE options, no YEAR ROUND school help, no agencies that come to our rural area or take care of kids. What happens then? No agencies service a child my sons age or my area? How will I sign up to work for an agency? It will be another service for families that looks good on paper so Virginia can pat themselves on the back but really ineffective for families and a wasted service.
