Most people don't think about Medicaid until someone they love depends on it.
For thousands of Ohioans with intellectual and developmental disabilities, it is the foundation that makes community living possible.
For more than 100 years, Graceworks has believed every person deserves the opportunity to live with dignity, purpose and connection in the community they call home.
Nearly 70% of people who reach age 65 will need some form of long-term services and support during their lifetime. Medicaid remains the nation's largest payer of long-term care. For individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, Medicaid also funds many of the services that make community living possible.
If these services matter to you, join our voice and encourage your elected officials to protect Medicaid funding for home- and community-based services.
Today, Gracework’s commitment to service with dignity continues through services that help individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities build independence, strengthen relationships, and live powerful lives. These services also provide critical support for families and caregivers across Ohio.
As conversations about the future of Medicaid services continue in Congress, we encourage our partners, advocates, and community members to stay informed and make their voices heard.
Policies that support this type of care help ensure people can continue living, working, and thriving in their communities with the services they depend on.
If you believe these supports matter, consider reaching out to your elected representatives and encouraging them to protect Medicaid funding.
We believe caring for our communities also means advocating for the services that help every person live with dignity, independence, and purpose.
