ASAN Issues Plain-Language Toolkit on HCBS Settings Rule

The Autistic Self-Advocacy Network (ASAN) has issued a plain language toolkit explaining the Home and Community Based Services (HBCS) Settings Rule, which is a key regulation for supports that help people with disabilities live in the community.

As announced by ASAN:

“This toolkit answers many important questions about the HCBS Settings Rule and community living, such as:

• What is community living?
• What is an institution? 
• What are home and community-based services (HCBS)?
• What does the HCBS Settings Rule say?
• What rights does the HCBS Settings Rule give me?
• What rules do HCBS providers have to follow?”
