Advocacy


ACT NOW - SAVE OUR SYSTEM!

We need consumers, applicants for services, providers and advocates to join us in advocating for action by the Corbett Administration to ensure the health and sustainability of community services and supports for people with disabilities and seniors in Pennsylvania.

WHEN: DECEMBER 6, 2011 AT 3:00 PM
WHERE: THE CAPITOL ROTUNDA, HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANIA
WHY: We call on the Office of Long Term Living to address NOW the critical policy and funding actions that are needed to ensure stability of our service system.  Failure to act will result in a weakened provider netrwork and possible service interruptions to people who depend on daily assistance.
WHAT: We demand immediate action on -

  • Enacting the interim agreement that will stabilize the system during the development of new rates for home and community based services
  • Approving service plans in a timely manner so that people get the services they need and providers get paid for the services they have already provided
  • A firm plan and schedule of work on new rates to achieve long-term stability that includes stakeholder involvement
  • A plan to improve communication and dialogue with providers and other stakeholders to ensure system improvement
