Supervised Group Living (SGL) Conversions
In the past several years, Indiana has followed the trend of deinstitutionalization by closing all of Indiana’s state institutions for people with developmental disabilities, but at the same time, providing needed supports and services to the people with developmental disabilities by using Indiana’s Medicaid Waiver Program. Now, the availability of new federal funds from the Balancing Incentive Program provides an opportunity for Indiana to give current residents of group homes greater control over where they live and how their services are provided by converting the funding for their residential services to the Medicaid Waiver program.
