The Bootcamp will provide a five-part webinar series and follow-up community of practice sessions for those that are interested in implementing best practices and applying strategies and tools provided during the Bootcamp webinar series. The first Bootcamp webinar will be a general session that reviews the federal requirements of the HCBS Final Rule and changing expectations and best practices in our service delivery system. There will two tracks for the last four Bootcamp webinars. One track is for residential providers and a second track is for day services and employment providers.
All providers can enroll staff in both tracks of the Bootcamp if they provide both residential and day/employment services. There will also be two Communities of Practice: one for residential providers and one for day/employment providers. The Bootcamp webinars are intended to offer strategies and resources with time set aside to address questions and challenges that providers are dealing with by complying with the federal requirements of the HCBS Final Rule. Follow-up technical assistance will be available to those who enroll in the communities of practice.
