HDI is working with the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services as they work to update Kentucky’s Olmstead Compliance Plan. HDI is working in partnership with people with disabilities, family members, relevant state agencies, and community partners to ensure both consumers and providers have input on the updated Plan. The Plan will continue to advance Kentucky’s commitment to choice, access to community-based services, long-term care options, housing, and competitive integrated employment.
