DISABLED LIVES MATTER - please stop evv
 

My home has been turned into a combat zone because of EVV.  Do you know what a disruption this is on family?  To get in disagreement after disagreement with your adult, disabled child over EVV? To watch my adult child EOB cry literal tears in frustration, because of having to see my obvious stress as attendant at getting the app to work, forgot to clock in, manual entries, fraud threats, and a myriad of other problems  My own child, as a competent EOB, is helpless to do anything especially since the fiscal agent is not much help as well.  My child is afraid of their future and what it holds now thanks to EVV.  I'm scared I will lose my child's other caretaker, because of clocking in and out and the impossible coordination of our hours.  We are so stressed out and the disabled and their families have to live with enough stress.  EVV comes along to further inflame causing distress and heartache in families.  DISABLED LIVES MATTER.
