South Dakota

South Dakota operates four Medicaid HCBS waivers, including CHOICES and Family Support 360 for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The Department of Human Services coordinates disability and long-term-support access.

Important: South Dakota's I/DD pathways are split across different waiver purposes. CHOICES provides a broad menu for children and adults with I/DD, while Family Support 360 focuses on helping families support a person at home. Ask DHS which waiver best fits the person's setting and goals.
