When the PHE ends, DHS will resume closing Medicaid cases for ineligible recipients. DHS has stressed that they want all recipients that remain eligible to keep their coverage and complete their renewals in a timely manner. Providers can assist by making sure that they are prepared to aid the individuals to complete their renewal when it is due, now and after the PHE ends.

Register for the webinar.

The Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Settings Rule can improve community-based services and supports for people with disabilities and older adults for decades to come. A key requirement of the Settings Rule is that states hear from people with disabilities and older adults about how the state can best implement the rule.

The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is hosting this webinar to provide participants with an opportunity to learn when and how to invite and/or provide feedback on state efforts to comply with the rule. Presenters will share key dates, strategies, and examples of how powerful the voices of people with lived experiences can be in creating more opportunities for choice and control in service delivery and advancing the quality of services.

Live captioning will be provided. A video replay and transcript will be made available following the event.

The Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission (JCJC) is very excited to announce that the 2022 James E. Anderson Pennsylvania Conference on Juvenile Justice will return to the Hilton Harrisburg on Wednesday, November 2 through Friday, November 4, 2022. With the Conference returning to an in-person event, Resource Day will be held on Friday, November 4 between 8:00 am – 11:00 am. We invite you to join us as an exhibitor at Resource Day, where your organization can inform and educate a wide variety of conference attendees, including but not limited to juvenile court judges, juvenile court hearing officers, juvenile probation staff, attorneys, providers, and other system stakeholders.

Your long-standing devoted service to our juvenile justice system is valued, recognized, and appreciated. The past few years have provided previously unimaginable challenges, yet the provider community adapted and continued to provide high-quality services to youth and families across the Commonwealth. Again, the JCJC appreciates your perseverance and dedication to our system.

As a small sign of our appreciation, exhibitor fees for this year’s Resource Day are waived. The announcement provides details regarding this year’s conference. We truly believe attendance will be outstanding as we return to an in-person event for the first time since 2019, providing a great opportunity for providers to interact with a large number of conference attendees.

If you are interested in becoming an exhibitor during this year’s event, please contact Michael Yoder, Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission, electronically or at 717-705-9006.

For further information, please contact RCPA Children’s Policy Director Jim Sharp.
