Budget Fact Sheet: Update Flawed IHSS Administrative Funding Process

Post

As of October 2022, over 691,000 older adults and persons with disabilities receive in-home care from 600,514 trusted In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) caregivers in California. However, county IHSS programs are not fully funded to carry out the administrative duties required to meet numerous state and federal mandates. The current funding methodology fails to account for all persons that IHSS serves and also understates the cost of staffing.
