Subject: FW: CMS Webinar for Direct Support Workforce Bi-Monthly Call on January 10

Colleagues,

Over the last few weeks, I've been distributing a report we at PHI completed for AARP's Public Policy Institute on 7 strategies for increasing the wages and benefits of direct care workers. The report goes beyond wage pass throughs.

One of the authors of that report Dorie Seavey of PHI's staff will be discussing state and local strategies for improving wages and benefits as part of CMS's technical assistance to states regarding long-term care workforce issues. Information about this Wednesday's (1/10/07) webinar is posted below. [Sorry for the late notice but this notice was just posted last Friday.]

Please share this notice with others you think might be interested.

Thanks.
