Institutional Bias in Long-Term Services and Supports for People with IDD
Most Medicaid recipients with disabilities would rather receive long-term services in their homes and communities, but Medicaid funding is biased towards institutional living. ICI's new Policy Research Brief explains this institutional bias… and how to tilt it in favor of person-centered services, full community inclusion, and individual choice.
Empowering Families Toolkit
This toolkit was developed by ICI’s National Center on Educational Outcomes (NCEO) to provide accessible materials for parents about topics related to assessment-related State Systemic Improvement Plans and State-Identified Measurable Results that states commit to reaching.
These materials are designed to help support their participation in stakeholder meetings. The toolkit includes short video clips and printed flyers. The materials are designed for dissemination through social media, state websites, and at meetings.
