COVID Relief should not leave Aging and Disabled people behind

Aging and disabled people are dying in institutions. Leadership is needed now to include Home and Community Based Services in immediate COVID relief, address the housing crisis caused by a lack of affordable, accessible, integrated housing, offer support for in-home workers and the supplies they need to keep us safe, and permanent reauthorization of the Money Follows the Person program. Our lives depend on these vital services. COVID relief should have saving lives as its first priority.
