California law and regulation requires that regional centers display on their Web sites information about the dollar value of services they purchase for clients. These data (called "purchase of service" or "POS" data) must be reported separately by clients' ethnic/racial group, langauge and diagnosis.
Community Forum on Reformation of Independent Living Center on April 17
This Community Forum will be regarding the reformation of an Independent Living Center serving many families living in the Lanterman catchment area. The new Independent Living Center will be in East Los Angeles and extend north to many communities in the San Gabriel Valley. Recently, the federal and state government withdrew grants from Community Rehabilitation Services which led to that Center's closure in early March. This closure has an immediate impact upon many consumers and families served in the Lanterman Regional Center catchment area.
The Community Forum will be an opportunity for people with disabilities, their families, and community stakeholders to share input and public comment regarding the needs and priorities on those living in this ILC catchment area.
Additionally, here is a link to an online survey for anyone interested in this important opportunity to support and promote Independent Living: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/YVW7R9V.
