The IFSP-Funding Program provides direct assistance to individuals and families who are on Virginia’s DD Waivers Waiting List (the Waitlist). Individuals with a developmental disability who are on the Waitlist or their family member/custodial guardian are eligible to apply. IFSP funds cover the cost of a variety of items that will help an individual who is living in a community setting.
