Family Support Subsidy and Children at Home Program SFY 2015, October 30, 2015

The Family Support Subsidy (FSS) program provides a monthly payment to help families with the cost of raising a child with a developmental disability. Parents of children with disabilities were very active in getting state and federal policy makers to look at how they could divert some of the funds going to institutional care. Families with severely disabled children wanted to raise their children at home but were met with a lot of resistance and policy barriers when they tried to get home-based support.

Una mirada a l'home que juga

En la primera part, de manera molt sintètica, s’indica que l’interès per l’activitat lúdica es desenvolupa sobretot a partir de la curiositat que desperta la infància en el segle XIX, la qual comença a considerar-se com un estat diferenciat de l’adult. Acostar-se al món infantil significà ocupar-se d’una de les activitats principals i primordials que desenvolupen els infants: el joc. D’aquesta manera fou com començarien a desplegar-se, des de perspectives diverses, variades teories explicatives en torn d’aquest fenomen. En l’abordatge d’aquest objecte d’estudi, però, els fruits han estat escassos i som lluny de trobar una teoria explicativa general. En aquest article, resseguint Huizinga, intentem acostar-nos a una definició en torn del joc a partir de considerar diversos dels elements constitutius de la seva essència. No obstant això, cal ser conscients que el joc no es deixa aprehendre amb facilitat, sobretot si aquesta aproximació a l’homo ludens no s’efectua des de la seva dimensió bio-psico-social. Per això el monogràfic té un caràcter multidisciplinari. La segona part d’aquest article té com a finalitat presentar cadascun dels tretze escrits, sabedors que, a pesar de significar interessants aportacions a l’estudi del joc, els articles no esgoten el discurs que es desplega quan estem interessats a fixar la nostra atenció en l’home que juga.

Medicaid Home and Community Based Services Elderly Waiver Program

The Medicaid Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Elderly Waiver program provides assistance to qualified individuals who are 65 or older and prefer to stay in their own home or another community setting when needing long-term health care services. The Elderly Waiver program provides services and support to older Iowans who are medically qualified for the level of care provided at a nursing facility but do not wish to live in a nursing home. The program allows older Iowans to age in environments that are familiar and comfortable, while saving money from expensive nursing home costs.
