The FAP program provides respite care; counseling, training and education; special diets; special equipment and home modifications. In addition, the new FAP program covers expenses for individuals on various waivers for any of the above services not included in the waiver. As with the old program, FAP is a payer of last resort where families are required to exhaust other possible funding sources before FAP will cover services. Available funding is based on a sliding fee scale and the family is required to furnish documentation of the families income of the last reported tax year.
