PARTICIPATING JURISDICTIONS

2

DDA : Pierce County Parks Specialized Recreation programs are supported by DDA funding; respite money may be used. If using DDA funds to register please call (253) 798-4177 and have the participant’s case manager contact information on-hand. GENERAL BILLING INFO: Case managers will be billed monthly, using the hourly reimbursement rate based on the quarter hour. CANCELLATION POLICY: You must request cancellation, and receive confirmation, from PC Parks staff at least 5 business days before an activity for a refund. Refunds will not be made for missed or forgotten sessions, or late cancelations. VIRTUAL PROGRAMS: For virtual activities, access to an internet capable computer/ laptop/tablet/cell phone provided by the participant’s parent/guardian is required for participation. A ZOOM link will be sent to the email address listed on the registration prior to the program’s scheduled meeting. Unexpected Absences You will not be billed out of pocket for any illness or behavioral related issues as long as we are notified prior to the absence. If you/the participant is sick or experiencing: • Behavioral issues: If for any reason you feel you/your participant is not able to safely attend classes, please call and inform us at your earliest convenience. Safety is of our utmost concern. • If you have any type of contagious illness: Please do not attend classes until you have not had symptoms for 72 hours. Unattended Classes / No-Shows If for any reason, you/the participant does not show up for registered classes or is absent for any reason other than illness or behavioral related issues, you will be required to pay the published rate for these classes. We cannot excuse absences related to caregiver or transportation issues, appointments or trips. Because we are unable to bill DDA for services not rendered, you will be required to pay out of pocket, and invoiced at the end of the month for the amount due. One to One Assistants, Care Providers, and Chaperones: We want everyone to have the opportunity to fully and independently participate in our activities, and we realize that some of our participants need assistance to make that possible. We allow for two different types of assistance, both of which require passing a background check before attending. One to One (1:1) assistants and care providers may attend a program or activity at no additional cost with a registered participant when that person needs assistance with feeding, toileting, behavioral support, or ambulation. Our staff may evaluate and determine the need for a 1:1 assistant at any time. Chaperones may accompany registered participants as program support for ease of mind for an additional fee. Chaperones will need to provide their own transportation when we travel into the community. To communicate an absence or for any SCHEDULING QUESTIONS please contact us at: 253-798-2997 | pcsr@piercecountywa.gov
