Resources on Systems Change Grants
New Opportunities for Community Living: A Systems Change
Conference
The first annual Systems Change conference was held in Washington, DC on May 24
- 25, 2001, sponsored by the Health Care Financing Administration and
facilitated by the HCBS Resource Network. The conference was targeted toward
States, consumers, providers and advocates to share information and ideas on
home and community based systems change initiatives. These initiatives will
enable more integrated, community living for persons with disabilities of all
ages. The conference also provided a national forum to present various major
grant initiatives from the Health Care Financing Administration. The overall
objective of the conference was to help States improve their long term support
systems. Information was exchanged among stakeholders, meritorious practices
shared, and profiles of complementary Federal programs presented. The webcast
highlights two distinct tracks from the conference, Choice and Responsibility,
and Whole Person Support Systems, as well as offering the plenary sessions.
