Description: Inglis Foundation will use this funding for its Inglis Care Management Program to provide a community-based and consumer-centered model of care to promote independent living for low-income adults (between the ages of 18-60) with severe long-term physical disabilities. These individuals will include those transitioning from institutional facilities and those already living in community settings. Care management services will address unmet needs, seek to prevent unwanted and unnecessary institutionalization, and to improve the quality of life in independent living for this vulnerable population.
