What the Roads to Community Living Project Is
Roads to Community Living is a demonstration project designed to help people with complex, long-term care needs move back into the community. The project is Washington State’s part of a federally funded project called Money Follows the Person.
Through this project, Washington State has an opportunity to explore what kinds of services and support help people with complex, long-term care needs successfully move from institutions (such as nursing homes, state hospitals, or ICF-MRs) back into the community.
Project participants have an opportunity to visit or re-visit their ability to live in the community and access additional person-centered services and supports.
People who are eligible and want to participate in the project:
- Receive intensive one-on-one help to develop a plan to transition back into the community. The plan includes all of the individualized services and support needed to move and successfully live outside of an institution.
- Have access to additional services and supports not currently available through existing programs.
- May receive one-time-only expenditures or services needed during the move and transition back into the community.
