[boxed text] Dear Advocates for Home and Community Services:

These are the "Ten Worst States."

Use this information to reform the long term service and support system. Hold a press conference to highlight the poor job these states are doing, and issue a challenge to state officials to improve the community service system. COMMUNITY FIRST!

Though being in the worst category is nothing to be proud of, it gives your state the opportunity to commit to using 2002/2003 as a year to improve community services.

If you have any question please contact us at 512/442-0252.

For an Institution Free America,
