This grant is for the critical purpose of enhancing community integration and fostering greater independence for individuals with developmental disabilities. The primary aim is to significantly improve the overall quality of home and community-based services (HCBS). This will be achieved through the development and rigorous testing of one or more innovative model approaches. These models are designed to establish a coordinated and comprehensive system. This system incorporates two essential, interrelated core components: Community Monitoring, focused on assuring safety, health, and well-being, and Community Capacity Building, which strengthens resources to promote independence and integration for individuals residing in the community. Ultimately, this initiative seeks to ensure a better quality of life and sustained support.
