As part of a webinar series highlighting innovative strategies and approaches states are taking to implement the federal settings criteria for home and community-based services (HCBS), these upcoming webinars are being provided by the federal Administration for Community Living, in partnership with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and other national partners. This is an opportunity to learn more about the home and community-based service system changes.

This webinar, titled Innovative State Approaches to Promoting Compliance with the Federal HCBS Settings Criteria, will be the first of three webinars. The webinar is described as "An overview of innovative state strategies in setting assessment, validation, and remediation of HCBS settings; training/technical assistance models that states have rolled out (in collaboration with various partners) to ensure providers are able to make modifications to comply with the rule; and how to conduct ongoing monitoring of HCBS settings." To register for this webinar, follow the link at the bottom of the page.

The other two webinars in the series are titled "Promising State Strategies for Working with Providers to Meet the HCBS Settings Criteria & Promote Optimal Community Integration" and "After Receiving Final Statewide Transition Plan Approval: Tackling the Ongoing Systems-Change Work that Remains." They will be held on November 29, 2018 from 1 PM - 2:30 PM and December 13, 2018 from 1 PM - 2:30 PM, respectively. For more information on these two webinars, please view the corresponding dates on the Disability Rights Nebraska Event Calendar.

This webinar series is open to the public. Each participant must register for each of the three sessions separately.
