Aging & Physical Disabilities

We are dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for older adults and individuals with physical disabilities by providing comprehensive resources, support, and services. 

Our programs aim to promote independence, ensure safety, and improve overall well-being. Whether you are seeking information about long-term care, home and community-based services, or assistance with daily living activities, our goal is to help you navigate these options with ease and confidence.

Community HealthChoices

If you’re 21 or older, have both Medicare and Medicaid, or receive long-term supports through Medicaid because of a physical disability that requires support with daily living and care, you may be covered by Community HealthChoices (CHC).

CHC will coordinate your health care coverage to improve the quality of your health care experience — serving more people in communities rather than in facilities, giving them the opportunity to work, spend more time with their families, and experience an overall better quality of life.
