Description:

The Administration for Community Living (ACL) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) host a monthly webinar series that invites subject matter experts and practitioners from across the home-and-community-based services (HCBS) spectrum to share insights and best practices to develop high quality HCBS services and programs.

Food insecurity is growing among Medicaid HCBS beneficiaries as the COVID pandemic enters 2021. Many beneficiaries facing food insecurity also suffer from nutrition-related chronic diseases such as obesity and diabetes. This webinar provides HCBS stakeholders with resources they can use to ensure long-term success in addressing food insecurity; and invites them to consider referring beneficiaries to education and supports to manage often complex and long-term needs.
