Abstract This study examined service use and expenditures for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) living at home and in the community in California in 2005 and 2013. The number of people assessed for IDD services increased, along with the percentage of individuals who did not receive any services between 2005 and 2013. Controlling for client needs, children age 3–21 were less likely than other age groups to receive any services using logistic regressions. All racial and ethnic minority groups were less likely to receive any services than were white populations. Female

Abstract:
Although data on the subject are incomplete, available national data suggest that somewhat more than one million children with disabilities live in rural areas. These children face the special challenges of preparing for community life in environments where service systems are inadequate if not totally absent, funding for educational and other programs is typically meager, and persons with knowledge of disability-related services and issues—including the independent living philosophy and its application in the community—may be unavailable. It is important, therefore, that special education tea

Abstract Policy makers are increasingly interested in reducing public spending while maintaining quality of life. Since 1975, Oregon Project Independence (OPI) has supported community-based adults aged 60 and older to avoid or delay the need for residential long-term care services by increasing access to personal and home care services. The program also aims to prevent the need for Medicaid by optimizing personal resources and natural supports. In 2014, the OPI Expansion (OPI-E) pilot project began to serve adults aged 18-59 with disabilities in seven of Oregon’s seventeen Area Agencies on Agi
