Looking at HCBS From a State Level
Home- and Community-Based Services (HCBS) are essential for individuals with disabilities to live and participate in their homes and community. However, little is known about how HCBS impacts disabled people of color. The Community Living Equity Center was thrilled to feature three states and organizations that are beginning to examine equity within their HCBS systems. Attendees heard from our CLEC stakeholders—New Disabled South, Colorado Department of Healthcare Financing and Policy, and the University of Minnesota—about how each of them got started on identifying HCBS inequities within their state, which data sources were used, and what themes have emerged from their work.
