Evaluating the Preliminary Outcomes and Acceptability of a Virtual Adaptation of Acceptance and Commitment Training for Caregivers of People With Disabilities (“I Am Not Alone”): Mixed Methods Study Background: Family caregivers of children and youth with neurodevelopmental disabilities report higher levels of stress, anxiety, and depression than other caregivers, yet few evidence-based mental health services are available to support them. Our previous research demonstrated that caregivers benefitted from our in-person group-based acceptance and commitment training (ACT) workshop, which increased their psychological flexibility and improved their mental well-being. During the #covid19 pandemic, we adapted this intervention to be delivered virtually. Objective: In this study, we evaluated the program’s impact on caregivers’ psychological flexibility and mental well-being, as well as the acceptability of the virtual program. Methods: A total of 205 family caregivers of neurodivergent people or people with disabilities who registered for a virtual, group-based ACT intervention (10-12 hours across 5 or 6 weeks) from 1 of 27 teams across Canada participated in this research. ACT process (measured via the Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire, Acceptance and Action Questionnaire, Self-Compassion Scale–Short Form, and Valued Living Questionnaire) and mental well-being outcomes (measured through the Patient Health Questionnaire, Parenting Stress Index, Multi-System Model of Resilience Inventory, and Short Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale) were measured before and after the intervention and again at an 8-week follow-up. An acceptability survey was completed after the intervention, including items on satisfaction with virtual aspects of the intervention. Results: There was high intervention acceptability related to the virtual format (at least >80% satisfaction) despite variability in individual preferences (preferred in-person format: 28/91, 31%; preferred virtual format: 37/91, 41%; no preference: 26/91, 29%). Significant improvements were found for most ACT processes (fusion: F2,279=63.96; psychological flexibility: F2,264=38.81; values: F2,244=8.32; self-compassion: F2,170=33.59; P

One quiet barrier to independence for people with disabilities:
Parents doing things for them instead of with them.
Every task completed for someone is one less opportunity to build competence.

Rep. Hicks’ bill would cap waiver budget cuts at 10% during Waiver Reimagine rollout House File 3800 would limit reductions to individual waiver budgets to 10% unless needs change, and require a cost-of-living adjustment in the Phase 2 methodology; the committee laid the bill over after extensive testimony from waiver recipients and families.

Rep. Hicks' House File 3800 aims to protect Minnesota's most vulnerable by capping waiver budget cuts at 10%, but families fear that deeper cuts could dismantle their lives.
