HHSC has begun the initial stages of developing the 2024 Promoting Independence Plan (PIP), as required by Senate Bill 367, 77th Legislature, Regular Session, 2011, and Executive Order RP-13. The Promoting Independence Plan realizes the vision of the Olmstead Decision through dedicated efforts that foster successful community living and prevent unnecessary institutionalizations for people with disabilities.
HHSC is soliciting stakeholder input about community living barriers and best practices to inform report development. Additionally, HHSC will host a stakeholder event later this year. Details will be circulated via GovDelivery as they are finalized.
The open public comment period is from Feb. 12, 2024, to June 1, 2024. Email any comments and questions to [email protected].
