Recent changes to Medicaid's Home and Community Based Services may help people with disabilities.
Join Colorado Cross Disability Coalition Executive Director Julie Reiskin to learn what long-term services and support benefits are available in Colorado and what changes are coming. The discussion will be in Spanish, 2 to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, and English (with ASL interpreter), 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Wednesday on Zoom and at the TBK Bank Community Room at 259 W. Ninth St. in Durango.
The discussion, sponsored by the Southwest Center for Independence and the Colorado Cross-Disability Coalition, will focus on how LTSS help people remain in their home, changes that have occurred, how to get updates about and access these services and how you can have a say in state rules about LTSS.
Individually packaged snacks will be served and masks are required.
RSVP to Gordon South at gordon@swilc.org or 903-2732. Note whether you will attend in person (limited to 20 people) or will need the Zoom link, and if you will need disability-related accommodations.
