Community Living Assistance and Support Services (CLASS)
Revision 05-1; Effective December 2, 2005
The Community Living Assistance and Support Services (CLASS) program provides home and community-based services to persons with related conditions as a cost-effective alternative to Intermediate Care Facility for Persons with Mental Retardation or Related Conditions (ICF/MR-RC) institutional placement. A related condition is a qualifying disability, other than mental retardation, which originated before age 22 and effects their ability to function in daily life.
The CLASS service model focuses on consumer independence and integrating consumers into everyday community life. The CLASS program has two service providers: one provides independent case management, and one provides all other services, which include:
adaptive aids and medical supplies,
case management,
consumer directed services,
habilitation,
minor home modifications,
nursing services,
occupational therapy,
physical therapy,
psychological services,
respite care,
speech pathology,
specialized therapies,
support family services, and
transition assistance services.
