Home and
Community-Based Services (HCBS): What Are They and Why They Are
Important?
Wednesday, June 9, at 3:00 PM ET
Register for the webinar.
Nicole T. Jorwic, J.D, Senior Director of Public Policy at
The Arc and an expert on the topic of home- and community-based services
(HCBS) will provide an overview of the HCBS program and describes how it
helps people living with paralysis access the supports and serves they
need to live independent lives. Nicole will also discuss how Congress and
the administration are aiming to protect, invest in, and modernize this
system.
ACL funds the Paralysis Resource Center to provide
comprehensive information for people living with spinal cord injury,
paralysis and mobility-related disabilities and their support networks.
Resources include information and referral by phone and email in multiple
languages including Spanish; a peer and family support mentoring program;
a military and veterans program; multicultural outreach services; quality
of life grants; and a national website.
