Advocates and parents of children with autism continue to call on state workers and leaders to address funding issues that are pushing autism service providers out of the state.
Dozens visited the Colorado State Capitol Wednesday, as representatives from Colorado’s Medicaid program — called the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing — presented to state lawmakers in the Joint Budget Committee. This follows one of the largest providers of Applied Behavior Analysis services, Hopebridge Autism Therapy, pulling out of Colorado earlier this summer.
In a statement this summer, Hopebridge blamed funding rates from the state that haven’t kept up with rising operational costs. Ken Winn, president of the Colorado Association for Behavior Analysis, attended the meeting at the Capitol and has worked in the field for years. He said Colorado is facing an emergency with its loss in autism care.
