Welcome to The Riot Survey


The Riot wants to hear from you!!

And we especially want to hear directly from self-advocates!


Many self-advocates live in the community and receive services. The services are often are paid for by Medicaid. These services are called Home and Community Based Services, or HCBS. In January 2014, Medicaid changed the rules about how these services can be delivered. You may have heard people talk about them as the 'CMS Rules'.

The Riot wants to know if you have heard of these new rules. If you have, we want to know what you think of them.

Please fill out this survey. There are only 5 questions.

If you are a self-advocate and need help filling out this survey, ask a family member, a support staff, or a friend to help you.

If you are a family member, a staff person, or a friend, ask a self-advocate you know if they'd like to fill out this survey. You can fill out this survey as a family member, support staff, or friend too.
