Consumer-Directed Community Support

Heartland PCA offers a Consumer-Directed Community Support (CDCS) model, allowing clients to tailor services and supports to meet their specific needs. This model empowers clients to select their service schedule and hire their preferred caregivers, including family members and friends. CDCS extends beyond traditional supports, encompassing special therapies, assistive technologies, and modifications to homes and vehicles. It is accessible through various waivers including Developmental Disabilities, CADI, CAC, BI, EW, AC, and MSHO. Eligibility and access to CDCS are determined through an annual MnCHOICES assessment conducted by local authorities.
