The revision of Governor Newsom’s proposed state budget comes out every year in May. This is because the first proposed state budget is released in January, revised in May based on the latest economic information, and finalized in the summer. In this town hall, DRC’s public policy experts will share updates about the budget that are relevant to the disability community. After the update, we open it up for a Q&A.
Topics will include:
- Regional center services
- Medi-Cal
- In Home Supportive Services (IHSS)
- Housing
- Mental health
- Education
