The primary goal of our program is to provide opportunities for individuals who have a disability to develop lifetime recreation skills and interests. Although we are continuing to offer group and family-oriented outings, we encourage parents to take advantage of the respite service so that caregivers can have a break through our recreation programs. Programs that are in the section are intended to be respite in nature. Participant s Name: Program # PROGRAM INFORMATION Time / Session # Youth # Adults Accessible seating?

If there is a cost listed for the program, that is the fee that must be paid in order to participate. This cost applies to all participants. For respite programs (), you must be enrolled in the Home and Community Based Services waiver in order to participate. If you are enrolled in the HCBS Waiver, you still have to pay the fee that is listed for that activity. The same applies to individuals who are enrolled in the Care At Home Waiver. We will provide a receipt for payments made to CP Rochester for Recreation Programs. You may choose to submit your receipt for Family Reimbursement please contact your Medicaid Service Coordinator. Payments or Cancellations Payments or cancellations must be made by the program s registration deadline.
