Teresa Favuzzi & Henry Contreras2014 Summer Statewide, Sacramento

Increase Funding for ILCs

California Legislature Budget Bill

U.S. CongressReauthorization of the Rehabilitation Act

Funding Formula that Raises All Boats

Makes Whole 3 ILCs without AB 204 Funding

Promotes Home & Community Based Living Services Transition Coordination as new California Core Service

We found that it was not sellable in 2014, but we found friends along the way…

CFILC Made Significant Impact

Move to Administration on

Community Living

NO Formula Change

California Legislature—Increase funding for ILCs

Propose a bill to enhance funding for ILCs through a new Core Service: Transition Coordination

Propose a bill to enhance funding for ILCs, AAAs & ADRCs through the establishment of a California Department of Community Living

In alignment with Rehabilitation Act changes

Simple and Targeted just to ILCs

In alignment with MFP & CCI Goals

Bill may be seen as new funding and not supported

ILCs may be seen as not doing enough Transition Coordination to warrant additional funding

In alignment with Rehabilitation Act changes and Federal Administration of Community Living

BIG VISION BILL—multiple stakeholders

Bill may be seen as new funding, too BIG, been tried before

Opportunity for ILCs to lead in new direction, to seek funding for more than just ILCs

May not be supported by DOR, CDA, DHCS etc

Unknown implications for flow of funding

What would a CDCL include?
