House Resolution No. by Representative Butler directs the Office for Citizens with Developmental Disabilities to extend its Family Flexible Fund and waiver provisions in emergency situations through administrative or rulemaking authority as needed. The resolution highlights the office's role as the primary provider of services for individuals with developmental disabilities, including assessments for eligibility and monthly stipends to families caring for those with severe or profound disabilities. It emphasizes the importance of these provisions in alleviating the financial burdens families face and ensuring access to necessary services.

The resolution calls for the establishment of expedited processes for the Family Flexible Fund and waiver programs by April 1, 2025, to prevent undue financial strain on families during extraordinary circumstances. It also mandates that copies of the resolution be sent to relevant officials within the Louisiana Department of Health to ensure proper implementation and oversight.
