This meeting will take place at a mutually agreeable time but no later than November 30, 1998. The meeting will include but is not necessarily limited to: Development of a position paper that recognizes the current institution bias in the long-term care system and that home and community services must be the first priority in long-term care funding.

The DNC will work to develop, promote and pass legislation in the 106th Congress that will allow people with disabilities, regardless of age, or diagnosis (and family members as appropriate) to choose and control where and how long-term services and supports are delivered. This legislation must include financial incentives and sufficient funding so that no eligible individual shall be denied their choice of home and community services. The meeting agenda will also include ADAPTs inclusion in addressing the Convention and ra-ADAPTs inclusion on Platform deliberations. Sincerely, [signed] Janet V. Green [typed] Janet V.

USA TODAY The Nation's Newspaper No.1 in the USA...First in Daily Readers Tuesday, November 3, 1998 [Headline] Nationline Protest: Dozens of people in wheelchairs blocked entrances to Democratic and Republican party headquarters in Washington, D.C., to show support for Medicaid changes they said would allow many of them to remain out of nursing homes. The protest, staged by Americans Disabled for Attendant Programs Today, or ADAPT, was meant to build support for legislation to be introduced next year in Congress. The measure would allow more disabled Medicaid recipients to receive care at home or at some community-based setting. [Image] [image caption] In Washington, D.C.: ADAPT members demonstrate Monday.

[Headline] 'Campaign for Real Choice' expands [Subheading] ADAPT gets parties' commitment on 'institutional bias' The Medicaid Community Attendant Services Act, which ADAPT. has been pushing in Congress, was on the back burner during the group's blitz of the nation's capitol Nov. 1-5. ADAPT's "Campaign for Real Choice" is about "more than just passing MiCASA," says national organizer Mike Auberger. The day before national elections, ADAPT took over both Democratic and Republican head-quarters demanding parties develop a plank noting the current institution-al bias in Medicaid and adopting "home and community-based services as a first priority in long-term care funding" and enforcing the ADA mandate that services be provided in the "most integrated setting" (see "HCFA, DOJ and the ADA," September/October). Both parties have agreed to meet with ADAPT; a letter from the Democratic National Committee promises the group will "work to develop, promote, and pass legislation in the 106th Congress that will allow people with disabilities, regardless of age, or diagnosis . . . to choose and control where and how long-term services and supports are delivered." Activists surrounded the U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services building on Independence Ave. on Day 2; four hours later, officials had agreed to meet with ADAPT by January 3 to develop a transition plan for state compliance with the ADA's "most integrated setting" mandate. MiCASA is scheduled for re-introduction in early 1999. ADAPT is urging activists to visit or write congressional representatives urging them to "sign onto the new bill." For more information, contact ADAPT at 512/442-0252. --J. B.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS DEAR ABBY [Image of Abby] ABIGAIL VAN BUREN Dear Abby: You printed a letter recently from a woman who didn't understand why people would not want to go to a nursing home when they get old. You responded that "many are hesitant to give up their independence and familiar surroundings" Or to "surrender control of their lives," and noted that assisted-liv-ing facilities offer a more attractive alternative. A bill before Congress offers senior citizens and people with disabilities the choice to maintain their independence while remaining in their own homes or live in a group-care facility. [Subheading] Giving seniors a choice This bill is the Medicaid Community Attendant Services Act (HB 2020). The bipartisan bill is known as MiCASA (Spanish for "my house"). Anyone eligible for a nursing facility or intermediate-care facility services for the mentally retarded would be allowed to stay in their own home and receive attendant care to assist them in their home or workplace or in recreational or religious activities. Call or write your representatives in Congress and urge them to support this bill. — Gail B. Kear, Executive Director, Life-Cil/Center for Independent Living, Bloomington, Ill. Dear Gail: The vast majority of the mail I received in response to the letter from "Living It Up to the End" contained horror stories about the conditions seniors face when they enter nursing homes. Of course, there are exceptions, but the MiCASA bill appears to be the answer to countless prayers. Dear Abby: As an advocate for nursing home residents, I'm aware of cases throughout the country of abuse and neglect in nursing homes, as well as violations of residents' basic rights. While some very good facilities provide excellent care, many nursing homes violate the law daily. "Living It Up" should spend time visiting local nursing homes. I'm sure many are neither "clean" nor "pleasant." --Arizona Advocate Dear Advocate: Nursing home conditions will not improve until families make it their business to stay in close touch with residents, visiting frequently and at various hours, and taking their relatives out as often as possible to pre-vent their becoming isolated. Send letters to Dear Abby, P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles 90096. For a Personal reply, enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope.

Newsfronts Washington watch [image] [image caption] Members of the disability rights group ADAPT call for change at the Democratic National Headquarters in November. [text begins] Both political parties agreed to develop position papers on the issue of what ADAPT calls "institutional bias in long term care" and to allow members of ADAPT to address platform committees, and possibly party delegates, at upcoming presidential conventions. By the end of this month, ADAPT representatives also plan to meet with HHS Secretary Donna Shalala to urge a study of how to fix the "institutional bias," says Stephanie Thomas, a national organizer for ADAPT.
