Kenny’s World: Person-Centered Planning in Practice

<p>COVID-19 has placed a tremendous strain on the home and community-based services system, which has been plagued by high rates of staff turnover and is consistently under-resourced to deliver person-centered services to all people in need of home and community-based services and supports. Many HCBS providers are also grappling with recent legislative changes that are moving the system from one that is focused on the capacity or convenience of providers, to one that is focused on supporting people in living the lives they want in their communities.
