The Administration for Community Living is hosting a webinar to review the State Plan on Aging Guidance Update and Corrective Action Plan (CAP), which is designed to advance the policy goals of the Older Americans Act (OAA). The new State Plan on Aging guidance is consistent with the OAA as amended in 2020 and reflects changes to the OAA program regulations effective March 15, 2024. The purpose of this webinar is to serve as a guide for states and territories drafting state plans and state plan amendments that take effect on or after October 1, 2025. The webinar will also review information to help states and territories needing the CAP process to come into compliance with the 2025 OAA final rule implementation and other requirements.
State Plans:
- Document the tangible outcomes expected from state long-term care reform efforts.
- Translate activities, data, and outcomes into proven best practices, which can be used to leverage additional funding.
- Provide a blueprint for coordination and advocacy activities the state will undertake to meet the needs of older adults, including integrating health and social services delivery systems.
- Build capacity for long-term care efforts in the state.
Speakers:
- Kari Benson, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Aging
- Nicole Becerra, Aging Services Program Specialist
- Chris Mitchell, Aging Services Program Specialist
- Rhonda Schwartz, Regional Administrator, Region II
This webinar will be held on Tuesday, October 29 at 3:00 p.m. ET.
