Check on CAP-MRDD, we have that here in NC and it is supposed to be for
those who fall through the loops. Also, keep appealing the CAP
denials. You have the right to do that.
We have just signed up through an agency called ARC and they become
your case manager, they told me they would apply for CAP for our son.
Here in NC there is a very long list, but keep on trying and keep
appealing. It's crazy at the hoops they make us parents of special
needs kids jump through, also do you have a psyche exam to send them?

Best of luck to you!
