American Rescue Plan Act Funding for Home and Community-Based Services

Reminder: Join a Webinar August 2 or 4 to Learn About the New Medicaid HCBS Grants Opportunity

Applications open August 11

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) is investing American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to create a statewide home and community-based services (HCBS) grant program. The ARPA HCBS Grants offer an exciting opportunity for entities active in the state's Medicaid HCBS system to apply for $25,000 to $2 million in grant funds.

This initiative aims to positively affect Wisconsinites receiving HCBS by supporting a broad range of ways for their providers to improve, strengthen, and enhance their services. Available to organizations operating statewide, regionally, or locally, these grants will be able to reach any community, from rural to urban, and be responsive to the needs specific to operating in those settings.
