Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A small number of states offer low-intensity support services (LISS), which may be granted to individuals with developmental disabilities regardless of their priority status. These services provide a small amount of money each year to support the needs of a child, youth, or adult with a developmental disability within the community. LISS funding can be used to purchase items or services, and may be administered through the state DD agency (Division of Rehabilitation Services, 2018; Maryland Department of Health Developmental Disabilities Administration, 2018).
