Webinar – “Know Your PUNS Options”
A free, monthly webinar series focusing on PUNS (Prioritization of Urgency of Need for Services) selection to help families and self-advocates plan and prepare
Grab a sandwich and join The Arc of Illinois Ligas Family Advocate Program via Zoom for “Know Your Options” on May 19 from 12 to 1 p.m. This webinar is held virtually on the third Thursday of each month.
Families and self-advocates should join us if they received a 2021 letter of early notification from the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS) regarding a likely PUNS (Prioritization of Urgency of Need for Services) or were selected from the PUNS list in the summer of 2021.
Webinars will focus on several core areas including:
- Introduction to the Medicaid Home and Community-Based Waiver
- Service and support options after an award of funding
- Preparation needed for upcoming PUNS selection
- Resources to assist in planning
Each session will provide a presentation and a 30-minute question-and-answer discussion.

This webinar is also held in Spanish on the second Friday of each month. Register for “Conoce Tus Opciones!” on June 10 from 12 to 1 p.m.
