Register for the webinar

ACL invites you to a webinar in our series on strengthening advocacy in the Home- and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Settings Rule, Getting the Services You Need from the Waiver , on Wednesday, December 14, 2022. The HCBS Settings Rule can improve community-based services and supports for people with disabilities and older adults for decades to come. This webinar will provide insight into one of the main strategies stakeholders can use to get the promise of the Rule into everyday life: influencing the services that are included in the waiver application.  The webinar will highlight why you should pay attention to the waiver application and what is in an application, with a focus on appendix C – Services. It will also look at what states have to put into the application and highlight best practices for commenting on your state’s waiver application. Live captioning will be provided. A video replay and transcript will be made available following the event on ACL's HCBS Settings Rule webpage. Speakers:  Jill Jacobs, Commissioner, Administration on Disabilities, ACL Nancy Thaler, Senior Advisor, ACL Laura Miller, Managing Attorney, Equip for Equality Contact Erin Shea with any questions.
