Everyone deserves the right to choose where they age.

This GivingTuesday, we are raising funds for our California Community Transitions (CCT) program, which assists Medi-Cal eligible Californians living in skilled nursing facilities with transitioning back into their own homes or other community settings while providing the services and supports they need to live safely and independently.

Each participant receives personalized support from a Transition Coordinator who helps explore living choices and explain the services offered, such as home and vehicle adaptation, assistive devices, transportation options, wheelchairs and other medical equipment, self-care training, and getting a personal care attendant. The program also provides assistance coordinating with physicians, family, the nursing facility, landlords, and others.

Once the participant has moved, the Transition Coordinator follows them for a year, helping with issues that arise and connecting the client to services that will allow them to remain at home. This program helps people make their own decisions about where and with whom to live, and it’s available free of charge to anyone 18 or over who qualifies.
