On Thursday, March 23rd, 2023, the Disabilities &Conditions of Aging Network, hosted by Advocates Personal Care, met virtually to discuss events impacting the Disability community in central Indiana, throughout the State, and beyond. To focus in on a conversation that began during the February meeting, we invited Karly Sciortino-Poulter from the ARC of Indiana to help us better understand the unwinding of the Public Health Emergency and the impact that will have on people who are utilizing Medicaid and Medicaid Waiver services to support and maintain their independence. Of particular interest was the topic of paid parental caregiving for minors with disabilities, and its future as a feature of Attendant Care through the Aged & Disabled Medicaid Waiver and similar services on other Waivers.

 

The April session of the Disabilities & Conditions of Aging Network, hosted by Advocates Personal Care, will be held over zoom at 10am on Thursday, April 27th, 2023! While we do try to give everyone a chance to introduce themselves and their organizations, if you would like specific time on the April agenda to share updates about your organization’s activities, concerns, or celebrations, please email Advocates Personal Care’s Outreach Consultant at jwarriner@advocatescare.com.
