Help - Surprise,AZ

Contact her pediatrician to get a referral to AZEIP and a child pscyhologist if she's younger than 3. Contact DDD up til age 6. AHCCCS is health insurance and takes 45 days to process. I don't know how you can collect money for her disability. It's more of insurance than anything.

Check out this website and ask them questions.

Check out the SSA website regarding qualifications. http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10026.html

Hi J. if she is 3 or older she can also apply for ALTCHS that is a great help when it comes to medical bills that are not or may not be cover by acchss. I woild love to hear more about your niece I have a three year old baby girl. hope this helps

Hi J.,
My name is M. I think I can help you.I have a daughter who is disabled and gets ssi it is a little confusing,but yours definetly approves for all help even with DDD.If you are still interested let me know and i can steer you right place

I don't know much about collecting for disability but you should go to her daycare and ask them about it because there is something called DDD than can help you out. Make sure she is receiving her massages and specialty care because that is very important. I wish all the best to your sister.

I know some special needs children can get in-home childcare through the state. I am Respite certified through Guthrie Mainstream services, and they pay me to watch my friends special needs children.

J., How old is your niece. If she is under three then she is entitled to AzEIP, the Arizona Early Intervention Program. You can find it on the web and get her evaluated and services. Also she is eligible for DDD and again can call them to be evaluated. She should be able to received her SS through the DDD. R.
