In this episode of The Shining Beautiful Series, we explore the persistent dream of a world where everyone, regardless of ability, can live with dignity and access the care they need. We discuss the vital importance of Medicaid and Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) in making this dream a reality, and how these programs are essential to the independence and well-being of countless individuals. Despite challenges, the fight for inclusion continues, and we call on listeners to take action. Join us as we share insights, personal stories, and a call to contact your legislators to ensure that Medicaid and HCBS remain protected for all who rely on them. The dream of inclusion is persistent—together, we can save our services.
