On July 26, 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law. The ADA is a civil rights law prohibiting discrimination against people with disabilities in all areas of public life. Today, many people celebrate this important anniversary as Disabilities Independence Day. As Consumer Direct Care Network celebrates the anniversary of the ADA, we recognize the vital work done and the freedoms the ADA protects for individuals with disabilities. #ThanksToTheADA #ADAAnniversary2024 #AmericansWithDisabilitiesAct #ConsumerDirectCareNetwork #CDCN

Self-direction, also called consumer-direction, is a way for people who need long-term care to receive support and stay in their homes and communities. If you are in a program supported by Medicaid, you may qualify to be authorized by your state Medicaid agency for a certain amount of care at home. The state works with a Financial Management Services (FMS) provider to pay caregivers and support you in buying approved goods and services. The state also checks if you qualify for other types of support. Self-direction is about personal choice, control, and flexibility. In self-direction, you (or someone you trust to make choices for you) pick and train the people who care for you, plan when they’ll help, and choose how they’ll assist you. With self-directed services: - You stay in your home and community. - You pick your caregivers, possibly even friends or family. - You manage your care. You are in charge.

Today, Consumer Direct Care Network (CDCN) commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Olmstead decision, one of the most important civil rights decisions for people with disabilities in our nation’s history! On June 22, 1999, the U.S. Supreme Court delivered a historic ruling in Olmstead v. L.C. This case revolved around two women, Lois Curtis and Elaine Wilson, who had intellectual disabilities and were confined in a psychiatric hospital despite being deemed suitable for community-based care. The Court’s decision declared that the unjustified segregation of people with disabilities is a form of discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Why is this decision so important? 1. Empowerment and Independence: The Olmstead decision affirmed the right of individuals with disabilities to live in the community rather than being institutionalized. This ruling empowers people with disabilities to lead more independent, fulfilling lives integrated with family, friends, and the broader community. 2. Equality and Inclusion: The decision promotes equality and inclusion by recognizing that unnecessary segregation is discriminatory. It challenges stereotypes and acknowledges the capabilities and contributions of individuals with disabilities. 3. Policy and Funding Shifts: The Olmstead ruling has influenced policies and funding priorities, encouraging states to develop more community-based services and supports. This shift helps ensure that individuals receive care tailored to their needs in the least restrictive environment possible. 4. Ongoing Advocacy: The decision galvanized the disability rights movement, sparking continued advocacy for accessible, community-based services. It serves as a cornerstone for ongoing efforts to dismantle barriers and promote the rights of people with disabilities. As we celebrate this landmark decision, let’s honor the courage of Lois Curtis and Elaine Wilson, whose fight for justice has paved the way for countless others. Together, we can build a more inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. #Olmstead #DisabilityRights #Inclusion #ADA #CommunityLiving #Independence #CDCN #ConsumerDirectCareNetwork
