On February 27, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Community Living (ACL), announced two new initiatives to provide intensive technical assistance to states and stakeholders and a newly launched webinar series focused on a range of direct care workforce topics. Technical assistance will include up to 250 hours of individualized technical assistance on a variety of issues for up to six cross-agency state teams and a DCW Peer-Learning Collaboratives, which will bring together four to six states in a working group focused on a particular topic.
On Friday, March 8, at 1:00 PM CT, the DCW Strategies Center will host an informational call to provide more information about these technical assistance opportunities. Advance registration is required. Complete details about these opportunities, including application instructions, also can be found in the call for applications. On Thursday, March 7, at 9:30 AM CT, the DCW Strategies Center will kick off a technical assistance webinar series that will address a variety of topics related to strengthening and supporting the direct care workforce.
