Initiatives

Health and social service innovations are making government work better and building healthier communities for all Rhode Islanders. With the Governor's support, the Executive Office of Health and Human Services is driving several initiatives to ensure that Rhode Islanders -- especially our most vulnerable neighbors -- have access to high quality health and social services that are affordable and sustainable.

Olmstead Planning

Under the Olmstead ruling, states have a legal obligation to have the supports in place for individuals with disabilities to live, work, and receive services in the least restrictive setting. In Rhode Island, we strive to design an Olmstead Plan that also prevents unnecessary institutionalization in the first place. Learn more.  

Pay for Success

The Pay for Success: Permanent Supportive Housing Pilot Program in Rhode Island supports 125 permanent supportive housing slots. Learn more.
