Ohio’s Disability Services Map at a Glance

Below are the fastest, highest‑impact steps for most single mothers caring for a disabled child. Move in this order if you can; it lines up with how Ohio agencies talk to each other.

1) Get in the door with your County Board of Developmental Disabilities (CB/DD)

• Why this matters: Your county board is the gateway for DODD waivers (Level One, SELF, IO), service coordination, and local supports. Every Ohio county has one.
• Start here: Use the Ohio Association of County Boards directory to find your county board. Tell them your child’s age, diagnosis (or suspected), and urgent needs (safety, respite, school issues). Ask for an intake and to be screened for DODD eligibility. (oacbdd.org)
• If your child is in immediate behavioral crisis: Call 988 and ask for MRSS. (education.ohio.gov)
• What to gather: IEP/AEP, ETR, recent evaluations, therapy notes, medical records, Medicaid card if any.
• Timeline reality check: Intake scheduling usually within a few weeks; waiver enrollment timing depends on priority level and available slots. Plan for several months; use county Family Support Services (FSS) or Healthchek/OhioRISE supports in the meantime.
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Call the board back and ask for a “service and support administrator (SSA)” consult. If you cannot reach anyone, use DODD’s general contact line 800-617-6733 and ask for help connecting to your county. For concerns about safety/eligibility decisions, consider calling Disability Rights Ohio or a local legal aid; and keep a written log. (forms.prodapps.dodd.ohio.gov)

2) Apply (or update) Ohio Medicaid right away

• Why this matters: Medicaid is the insurance backbone for kids with disabilities (EPSDT/Healthchek, equipment, therapies, NEMT rides, and waivers).
• Apply fast: Online at Ohio Benefits or by phone 844-640-6446. Ask about EPSDT/Healthchek, OhioRISE, and whether your child may qualify via disability pathway or income. (ssp.benefits.ohio.gov)
• For medically fragile/complex kids: Ask specifically about the Ohio Home Care Waiver (OHCW). Basic eligibility includes being under 60, meeting a nursing facility level of care, and needing waiver services to stay at home. CareStar is the care management agency effective July 1, 2025; use 800-324-8680 for help. (codes.ohio.gov, content.govdelivery.com)
• For significant behavioral/mental health needs: Ask your provider or board to screen for OhioRISE and MRSS. Statewide MRSS expansion targets on‑site response in under an hour after a 988 call. (education.ohio.gov)
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Call the Medicaid Hotline 800-324-8680 and ask for an eligibility review and care management support; ask your child’s doctor to fax medical necessity notes; request a fair hearing if denied. (content.govdelivery.com)

Medicaid HCBS Waivers for Children in Ohio

These are the major DODD and Medicaid options that keep your child at home with supports.

DODD Waivers (through County Boards)

• Level One Waiver (L1) — children: Annual benefit limit up to $41,424 per waiver eligibility span. Often used for homemaker/personal care, respite, adaptive equipment, and home mods. (codes.ohio.gov)
• SELF Waiver — children: Annual waiver limit up to $41,424; includes participant-directed services and support brokerage; participant-directed goods/services are capped per rule. (codes.ohio.gov)
• IO Waiver: No single flat cap; funding ranges are set by needs assessment (ODDP) and county cost-of-doing-business category. County SSA will tell you your child’s range and build the plan. (codes.ohio.gov)
• How to apply: Through your county board’s intake/eligibility. Ask to be screened for all appropriate waivers and to be placed on any needed waiting lists, and ask about interim supports (FSS funds, short-term respite).
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Request a copy of your Ohio Developmental Disabilities Profile, your assigned funding range (IO), and a written notice of any denial/reduction so you can appeal under ORC 5160.31 due process. (codes.ohio.gov)

Medicaid’s Ohio Home Care Waiver (OHCW)

• Who it helps: Children and adults under 60 with medically complex needs who would otherwise need hospital or nursing facility care.
• Key eligibility: Medicaid eligible; meet nursing facility level of care; safe to serve at home; need at least one waiver service not otherwise available. (codes.ohio.gov)
• Care management: CareStar is ODM’s care management agency as of July 1, 2025. Use the Ohio Medicaid Consumer Hotline: 800-324-8680 if you are unsure who manages your case. (content.govdelivery.com)
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask for a reassessment; request an internal plan appeal; and if still denied, request a state hearing.

Education Supports and Scholarships (K–12)

Ohio offers two powerful scholarships in addition to your child’s IEP services. These do not depend on your income.

Autism Scholarship Program (ASP)

• Maximum for 2025–2026: $34,000 per school year. The child needs an IEP showing special education services or an Autism Education Plan (AEP); a private autism diagnosis can qualify if reflected in the IEP/AEP. Earliest eligibility is age 3. (education.ohio.gov)
• How to apply: Choose an approved provider on the state directory and submit through the provider. Phones: 877-644-6338 or 614-728-3480. (education.ohio.gov)
• Common roadblocks: Provider waitlists; transportation; partial coverage (parents pay costs above the cap).
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Consider the Jon Peterson scholarship if your child has an IEP under a different disability category, or use your IEP to secure more services from your district.

Jon Peterson Special Needs (JPSN) Scholarship

• Maximums for 2025–2026 by category: Up to $34,000\ast \ast (Autism/TBI/Hearing+Vision),\ast \ast$29,750 (Orthopedic/Multi‑handicapped), $24,080\ast \ast (VisionorOHI‑major),\ast \ast$20,069 (Hearing Impaired or Emotional Disturbance), $13,069\ast \ast (SLD/ID/OHI‑minor),\ast \ast$10,045 (Speech/Language). Student must have a current district IEP. (education.ohio.gov)
• How to apply: Pick an approved provider, then apply through them. Phones: 877-644-6338 or 614-728-3480. Provider search and parent portal are on the state site. (education.ohio.gov)
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Use the IEP to secure services in your public school; consider EdChoice Expansion for tuition help if you’re switching schools for reasons beyond disability services. (education.ohio.gov)

---

Publicly Funded Child Care (PFCC) — including special needs

• Initial income eligibility: Up to 145% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) for most families.
• If your child has a verified special need: You may qualify initially up to 150% FPL, and your provider can request special needs payment enhancements for the additional supports your child requires.
• Ongoing eligibility: Families can stay on PFCC up to 300% FPL if other rules are met. Apply on Ohio Benefits or call 844-640-6446. (emanuals.jfs.ohio.gov)
• Copays: Based on income and family size, with $0 copay for families at or below 100% FPL. (emanuals.jfs.ohio.gov)
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask your provider to help request a special needs enhancement; check Head Start and Early Head Start; ask your CB/DD about respite hours in your waiver or county funds.

---

Food, WIC, and Groceries

• WIC Cash Value Benefit (fruits/vegetables): Children ages 1–4 receive $26\ast \ast /month;pregnantandpostpartumnon‑breastfeedingparticipantsgenerally\ast \ast$47/month; fully or partially breastfeeding participants $52/month, per the USDA’s 2024–2025 food package updates. Apply through your local WIC clinic. (wicworks.fns.usda.gov, wicbreastfeeding.fns.usda.gov)
• SNAP (Food Assistance): Apply via Ohio Benefits or by phone 844-640-6446. Ohio follows federal SNAP rules, including expedited issuance for very low income/limited resources and gross/net income testing as described in the state manual. If you are denied, you can appeal. (emanuals.jfs.ohio.gov)
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask your county JFS for an “expedited SNAP” screening; call or visit food pantries via 211 while your case processes.

---

SSI Cash Benefits and Protecting Eligibility with ABLE

• SSI 2025 Federal Benefit Rate: $967\ast \ast /monthforanindividual;\ast \ast$1,450 for a couple. A child’s payment depends on family income and resources (deeming rules). Apply through Social Security; appeals are common, so keep deadlines. (ssa.gov)
• Protect savings with ABLE (Ohio STABLE Account): SSI disregards up to $100,000 held in a qualified ABLE account; balances above that can suspend SSI cash benefits but generally keep Medicaid if the excess is solely the ABLE balance. Review SSA’s ABLE Spotlight and POMS for details. (ssa.gov, secure.ssa.gov)
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask for help from a hospital social worker or a legal aid advocate for the SSI application or appeal, and consider opening ABLE as soon as you can.

---

Utilities and Energy Help

• Programs to ask about: Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP), Winter/Summer Crisis Programs, and Percentage of Income Payment Plan (PIPP) Plus for electric and gas. These are administered by the Ohio Department of Development through local providers; most programs use income rules based on FPL.
• Action step: Contact your local Community Action Agency through 2‑1‑1 or visit the Ohio Department of Development’s Energy Assistance page to book an appointment and upload documents. If your child’s medical equipment depends on electricity, tell them at once to explore medical certifications.
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask your electric/gas company’s critical needs or medical certification team for a short‑term hold while your HEAP/PIPP appointment is pending.

---

Transportation to Medical Appointments

• Non‑Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT): Available through Medicaid managed care or fee‑for‑service. Contact your plan or the Ohio Medicaid Consumer Hotline: 800-324-8680 to arrange rides. If you have OhioRISE, ask your care coordinator for help scheduling. (content.govdelivery.com)
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Ask the hospital social work desk to set up a ride through the plan portal; request mileage reimbursement if you drive.

Children with Medical Handicaps (CMH) — help paying for specialized care

Ohio’s Children with Medical Handicaps (CMH) program, administered by local health departments and ODH, can help with diagnosis and treatment for certain eligible conditions and offers service coordination. Ages served and details are set in state law and ODH rules, with local health departments helping families enroll. Start by calling your local health department’s CMH nurse. Examples of county CMH pages (with program descriptions, contact numbers, and brochures) are available via health departments in Cincinnati, Clark, Summit, Wayne, and others. (cincinnati-oh.gov, ccchd.com, scph.org, wayne-health.org)

• Tip: Ask your child’s specialist to submit the Medical Application Form and ask your county CMH nurse to help you track the “Letter of Approval.”
• What to do if this doesn’t work: Call the county health department and ask for the CMH public health nurse; if you can’t find a number, call your pediatric hospital’s social work office for a warm handoff.

• Step 3: If your child has an IEP or autism plan, pick a provider and apply for Autism or Jon Peterson scholarship for fall placement; check waitlists now. (education.ohio.gov)
• Step 4: File PFCC for child care coverage (work/school). Ask your provider to request a special needs enhancement if accommodations are required. (emanuals.jfs.ohio.gov)
• Step 5: Apply for WIC and SNAP (if eligible) through Ohio Benefits or your clinic.
• Step 6: If the disability is severe and income is very limited, apply for SSI; consider opening a STABLE (ABLE) account to protect savings. (ssa.gov)

Common mistakes to avoid

• Missing the county CB/DD intake: County boards are your launchpad to DODD waivers and service coordination. Don’t wait for a diagnosis to start intake—bring school evals and pediatric notes and ask for eligibility screening. (oacbdd.org)
• Not asking for MRSS during a crisis call: When you dial 988 for a child or teen, say “we need MRSS.” That routes your family to mobile crisis designed for youth. (codes.ohio.gov)
• Letting PFCC lapse after a raise: Ohio lets families stay on PFCC up to 300% FPL if other rules are met. Report changes, but don’t assume you’re out. (emanuals.jfs.ohio.gov)
• Skipping ABLE: Without ABLE, saving more than $2,000\ast \ast canthreatenSSI.WithABLE,upto\ast \ast$100,000 is excluded. (ssa.gov)
• Not appealing: Many SSI, waiver, or scholarship denials are overturned on appeal. Always ask for the decision in writing and note the deadline on the letter.

What to do if one door closes (Plan B options)

• Waiver waitlist too long: Ask your county CB/DD about Family Support Services funds, community respite options, and short‑term help; ask Medicaid about OhioRISE and Healthchek services while you wait. (education.ohio.gov)
• Autism/JPSN provider full: Get on multiple waitlists, ask your public school to immediately implement any IEP services, and reapply next window. (education.ohio.gov)
• Denied SSI: File a reconsideration promptly; ask your child’s specialists for detailed functional reports tied to Social Security’s childhood listings; consider legal aid.
• PFCC not enough for 1:1 support: Ask your provider to request a special needs enhancement from the state and layer services from your DODD waiver or OhioRISE. (emanuals.jfs.ohio.gov)

Diverse Communities

• LGBTQ+ single mothers: Many state workers are familiar with diverse families. When connecting to services, use your chosen name and identifiers. For school services, remind teams that supports must be provided regardless of family structure. Phone: 800-324-8680 for Medicaid plan changes if you need providers with affirming training. (content.govdelivery.com)
• Single mothers with disabilities or disabled children: Ask your CB/DD for caregiver training supports under waivers, adaptive equipment, and respite. For income‑limited families, pair SSI and ABLE to stabilize finances. (ssa.gov)
• Veteran single mothers: You can use state programs alongside VA benefits. For behavioral health crises, 988 has a Veterans option; ask for MRSS if the youth is involved. (codes.ohio.gov)
• Immigrant/refugee single moms: Many programs require specific statuses. Ohio Benefits offers language access at 844-640-6446; ask for an interpreter when you call. (ssp.benefits.ohio.gov)
• Tribal citizens: If your family has tribal affiliation, mention it to county and school teams—certain federal protections and resources may apply in child welfare and education placement decisions.
• Rural single moms with limited access: Use tele‑evals when allowed (check scholarship virtual-service guidance), ask for mobile MRSS, and request travel mileage reimbursement from your Medicaid plan if you must drive long distances. (education.ohio.gov, codes.ohio.gov)
• Single fathers: All programs listed are for any parent or legal guardian. When contacting agencies, state you are the custodial parent and request the same supports.
• Language access: For state benefit applications, say “interpreter please.” Ohio Benefits confirms free language help at 844-640-6446. (ssp.benefits.ohio.gov)
