Moving Forward: Vol. 18, Issue 10

The focus is on FY 2014! Earlier this week, the House approved their version of the FY 2014 budget and the Senate is currently at work on FY 2014. The House added 28 Independent Care Waiver Program slots, eliminated the proposed 0.74% cut for home and community-based providers, and eliminated the proposed cuts to adult protective service worker positions and respite.

Please be sure to thank your Representative for supporting these vital pieces of the Unlock the Waiting Lists ask, and ask your Senator for their support as well! For more information, go to www.unlockthewaitinglists.com.

Once the Senate passes their version of the FY 2014 budget, any differences will be worked out in conference committee to create the finalized FY 2014. Stay tuned.
