💔 Medicaid Services for Individuals with Disabilities Are Under Threat. Will You Help Us Protect Them?
Updated: May 23, 2025
🛑 A Quiet Crisis Is Unfolding — And It Affects the People Who Need Us Most
At ADEPT Programs, we believe that every individual deserves to live with dignity, independence, and inclusion—regardless of ability. That belief is at the heart of everything we do. But today, that promise is at risk.
Right now, Congress is considering proposals that could dramatically cut or restrict access to Medicaid-funded home and community-based services (HCBS)—a lifeline for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) across the country.
Why This Matters
For nearly 50 years, ADEPT Programs has been honored to walk alongside individuals and families as they build lives filled with meaning, connection, and opportunity. Medicaid is the backbone of this support. It funds the group homes, community integration, supported employment, and critical wraparound services that make our work—and the dreams of those we serve—possible.
Without strong federal protection for Medicaid, we risk:
Longer waitlists for essential services
Reduced access to safe, accessible housing
Job loss for thousands of direct support professionals
Fewer opportunities for individuals with I/DD to live independently
Our Call to Action: Let Congress Hear Us
This is not just policy—it’s personal. Behind every budget proposal are real people, real families, and real futures. That’s why we stand in full support of ANCOR’s campaign to tell Congress: Protect Medicaid. Protect I/DD services.
You can help.
