Nor-West receives contributions from the recreation departments of Cortlandt, Peekskill, Ossining, and Yorktown to aid in providing services to the Nor-West community. Priority for program registration is given to residents within the listed catchment area. Our main funding source is the HCBS Medicaid waiver and OPWDD state funding streams for respite services. This funding is designated for individuals living at home with their families and who have OPWDD eligibility or are HCBS waiver enrolled.
Venue Charges:
All participants are responsible for paying the Venue Charges, which cover expenses incurred at the program site, including admission charges, tickets, user fees, meals, beverages, and snacks. The Venue Charge is mandatory for all consumers, regardless of waiver status.
Registration Fees:
Registration Fees apply to residents of IRA, Supported Apartments, Group Residences, or those who live independently. Unfortunately, individuals who reside in state-funded settings do not qualify for respite funding. While contributions from our four municipalities supplement the fees, they do not cover the entire cost.
Transportation Fees:
Transportation Fees apply to those in an IRA, Supported Apartment, Group Residence, or living independently and must be paid at the time of registration via check or money order.
