Justice in Aging will hold a webinar on the recent Home and Community-Based (HCBS) Access Rule. The Rule establishes new protections for HCBS participants and applicants, including requirements related to waitlists, service planning, grievances, critical incidents, quality measures, and participant involvement in setting state policy. In partnership with the Community Living Policy Center at Brandeis University, the webinar will explain each major provision of the Access Rule, emphasizing the important work needed within individual states to promote beneficiary health, safety, and well-being. State policymakers and advocates working with HCBS participants are encouraged to attend.
