Hometown Waiver Solutions opened its fifth office in Indiana today following a ribbon cutting and some celebratory remarks from the Jackson County Chamber.
“On behalf of the chamber, I just want to welcome you guys to the community, and you picked a great location to offer your services,” chamber Director Dan Robison said.
Hometown Waiver Solutions provides services to individuals and families with developmental disabilities eligible for Medicaid waiver services in Indiana.
The social service also has offices in Evansville, New Albany, Indianapolis and Terre Haute.
South Central Regional Manager Tammy Ratts said with the focus on creating a strong presence in the southern region of Indiana, opening an office in Brownstown seemed like a good fit.
“I also live in Salem, Deanna Weller, who works in human resources, also lives in Salem and the other staff live close by, so it works out for us, too,” Ratts said.
She said one of their main focuses is helping families and individuals with employments opportunities but also a variety of other opportunities.
The office is located at 118 W. Walnut St. in Brownstown.
