Raising a child with a disability means becoming an expert in systems no one prepared you for: IEPs, IHSS, Regional Centers, Medicaid waivers, denials, appeals, deadlines
Raising a child with a disability means becoming an expert in systems no one prepared you for: IEPs, IHSS, Regional Centers, Medicaid waivers, denials, appeals, deadlines. The map lives in a binder, on a whiteboard, and in your head, and it is never up to date. Wayfound is the navigator that carries that map for you. It remembers where your child is, what comes next, and what is already in place, so you can handle one thing at a time. What Wayfound does: Finds the programs your child likely qualifies for, each with the rule behind it, across 71 programs in California and Texas. Reads across your IEPs, denials, and evaluations, surfaces the hours and dollars a single page hides, and turns a denial into a ready-to-file appeal. Files the applications with you, step by step: completes the official forms, writes the clinical parts from a plain conversation, and tracks each one from submitted to approved. Stays with you through the whole IEP: read the plan in plain language, prepare your asks, stay oriented in the meeting itself, and put the follow-up in writing. Tracks the deadlines and appeal windows nobody tells you about. Every serious answer shows its work: a confidence label, citations to the official agency page, and figures checked against your own documents. If it cannot be verified, Wayfound does not say it, because unverified information is exactly the problem families face. Wayfound was built by parents raising their own autistic child, who lived this maze and decided no family should walk it alone. It serves families across California and Texas, backed by 1,340+ verified sources. Wayfound provides information to act on, not legal or medical advice. Find every program. Decode every denial.
