Advocacy
What Advocacy Looks Like
With Us
It depends on where you are and what you need. It may look like:
- A one-time session to prepare for a specific appointment or meeting
- Ongoing support through an appeal or denial process
- A full case review where we examine everything you have & identify the gaps
- Education on programs and benefits you may not know you qualify for
- Guidance through the process step by step until you get what you need
Advocacy. Education. Guidance. Everything You Need to Get What
Your Family Deserves
Most families are not getting everything they’re entitled to. They’re in programs but missing hours. They’ve been denied and don’t know they can fight back. They’re navigating systems alone that were designed to be complicated. That’s where we come in.
We examine your situation individually, identify what you’re missing, and give you the tools, knowledge, and support to get it.
Regional Center Support & Navigation
This Includes:
Not in a Regional Center but have a diagnosis of Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy, Intellectual Disabilities, or other related neurological conditions? You may qualify. We can point you in the right direction to get evaluated.
IHSS Assessment & Reassessment Preparation
Whether you’re applying for the first time or facing a reassessment visit, we prepare you to walk in ready. We help you document the daily reality of care — safety risks, behavioral needs, medical complexity — in a way that the social worker understands and can act on.
If your loved one is in Regional Center and IHSS, they should likely be qualifying for maximum hours through Protective Supervision. If they have serious medical needs on top of that, Paramedical hours may also be available.
Appeal Support
Been denied? Hours reduced? We help you understand your options and prepare to fight back whether that’s an IHSS appeal, a Regional Center service denial, or an insurance appeal.
Benefit Identification
This is one of the most valuable things we do. We look at your full situation — every program you’re on, every program you might qualify for — and identify what you’re missing. Housing assistance, meals, home furnishings, respite care, additional Personal Assistant or Homemaker hours — most families don’t know the full scope of what’s available to them. We do.
Share of Cost Examination
If you have a Medi-Cal Share of Cost, we help you understand what it is and look into programs and strategies that may help reduce or offset it.
VA Homecare Navigation
We help veterans and their spouses identify and access VA homecare programs including Home Based Primary Care, Veteran Directed Care, Aid & Attendance, PCAFC, PGCSS, and CHAMPVA.
Coming Soon — Sliding Scale Services
We are currently working toward Medi-Cal credentialing which will allow us to offer advocacy services on a sliding scale fee to qualifying families. We believe every family deserves access to advocacy support regardless of their ability to pay. Sign up for our newsletter to be notified when sliding scale services become available.
